We have had 2 lovely ladies do the make & take tags with me today. 
The 1st was Caroline who just popped in for a craft catch up! She chose to make the christmas holly tag & had a great time distressing, colouring & glittering to give tag the vintage look.











The 2nd was Christine who was paying us a visit whilst on her hols in Derbyshire! She chose to make the christmas holly tag also & picked up some hints & tips on colouring.












We hope you enjoyed you time at the Little Paper House ladies! Look forward to seeing you again soon.

A girl's night out or a trip to remember?!

For a birthday treat we went to see Dirty Dancing in Birmingham...the show was amazing!.....apart from a woman 2 rows in front who kept jumping up & down every few minutes!! 
On the walk back to the car park to our horror we found it all locked up! so started to panic thinking that we would be spending the night in Birmingham...but with the help of the local police force we managed to retrieve the car back, we thankfully made it home in 1 piece!

Having fun scrapbooking!

Had lots of fun this morning, scrapbooking with Emily. The scrapbook page she created was of photos that were taken when she was 6 months old. She did really well, the page looked fab! It also got me inspired to finish a page i was working on of my niece Imogen. The photo was taken when she was 3 and a half months old. Hope you get inspired too.
