Chloe & Zac 6x6 page

Hi everyone I hope that you are already winding down for the weekend.

Well I think I am actually going to try & post something that I have actually made recently. Yes I know it has taken me a while, but I am still trying to get the hang of this whole blog thing... Soon I will be a master at it & will be able to post all the time!! (here's hoping)!!

Well this is a 6 x 6 page that I made.
It has a picture of 2 of my grandchildren Zac & Chloe.

Recipe:

Card Stock: Basic Black & Groovy Guava

Patterned: Designer Series Fall Flowers

Punches: Word Window, Scallop & Double Rectangle (half of the punch)

Accesoories: Black Journaler & Black 1/4 Inch Grosgrain Ribbon

Ok well hopefully this will work and I will have my first scrapbooking page on our blog FINALLY!!! Then I can put some more things on here over the weekend.

Have a great weekend everyone & hopefully I will post some more tomorrow...

An actual image to post...(trial)

I think I just need to keep practicing & maybe then I won't need to edit everything 10 times... *VBGRIN*

Well this is not a Stampin' Up! project but I thought I would post a picture of Martyn & Myself on our Wedding Day just to see if it actually worked. Ahh what a great day that was... Mind you it was 11 years ago now :o) (But the frame was only decorated & embellished last year).

So here goes lets see if it works!!

If it does Martyn & I will have to then get to work & post some creations for you all to have a look at.

Well talk to you all soon.
