Feeling perkier, lots to share

Firstly - feast your eyes on these entries I have had so far for this contest.

Now let me thank those who have sent prizes thus far adding to a mountain of goodies under my stairs. Anglesey Craft Supplies, Scrapdragon, Craftables, Craft Heaven and Charmed Cards and Crafts. Please pop along to these fabulous UK stores and show your support if you fancy a bit of retail therapy this fine day.

Dont worry if you either digi or paper scrap - I think at this stage it might be fair to have a digi and a paper winner - so that you can enjoy your prizes respectively. Lots of GC (some as high as $30 each). Also - the paper products include albums, stickers, kits and kits and kits!! How cool are these prizes?

So you wanna play along? You have until the 1st of May to scrap a layout about your hands. But why the hands? Well, do you ever compare your hands to your mum or dad? Do you notice the shape, the size and the lines. Do you ever measure your hands up against your parents and other family members? And can you remember, as a child, what fun it was to match your hands to your parents? Well by scrapping your hands you can leave a piece of that legacy behind in your very own way. And don't forget there is an option as to whether you donate to Muscular Dystrophy - a campaign for muscle conditions so common or so rare, rather like our daughter who sufferers from a muscle wasting condition. CLICK HERE to see how this all began.

Her Space/My Space - finally caught up. I have hated being like the way I have been feeling. I have had no energy to muscle down to the basics and as this is my daily bread, well, it's been emotional!!! Neets is so understanding, thanks sweetums

The DC is a buzz of creative fantasticness right now. Go and check out the customer feedback after one day. Lots of positivity (also see paragraph before about positivity!!) and a few points to pick up on as we tailor make these projects to everyone liking.

As the title of the post insists - yup! Im perkier today. This coupled with the fact I had 15 hours sleep. I clearly needed it. Last night though I did have a searing pain in my lower abdomen and there was nobody was in the house and I didn't have a soul to call upon at a stupid hour. Fortunately mark rang me for some bizarre reason at a late hour and he calmed me down. But the sleep obviously cured it and I feel so much fitter. I was fit again to get this baby uploaded.

She is my bright and funky Finding Me layout - as prompted by my freind and Alliance buddy Corinne Delis. Corinne's workshop is for those who want to delve deeper into their souls and reveal the true person within. Its an absolutely fantastic workshop which I believe has more openings in September. If you are as strong minded as me about BOM pages, then this is for you! Creating pages in this style is really something I am happy doing. Corinne and the guest designers including Anita Mundt, Celine Navarro and Wendy Smedley (as well as my Friend Flo Bavinck) provide visual treats to help inspire and the rest of us add our own flavour from the script. I love to play and have used corrugated cardboard cut up free hand to provide small touches here and there. Its a route Im going to follow more often in future.

And finally (we love those "and finally's", right?) Ive caught up with the overlays as part of the one-a-day-for-a-month scheme. These took me the best part of an hour today and as Im feeling much better - the colours even gave me some therapy too. Enjoy!
