Just a quick Post for now just to say look at what goodies arrived today :) I put in an order on Sunday with Craft Island as I wanted to get some bits to so I could start my BOM as I need to play catch up and I came across some other bargains too :) Can't wait to get some crafty time. Got a few bits to get started.

GB Cyber Crop Class

Just the one Layout to share this evening, My take on another GB Cyber Crop Class over on Ukscrappers. I made the circles and Ice Cream using old scraps of paper from my Scrap Box and I inked each circle with black ink so they stood out better.

For the Ice cream I used some cream hand made paper stuff which I backed on to white Card Stock for extra strength, I used Glossy Accents on the Ice Cream part to give it a bit of shine, not really used it before so wasn't sure how it would turn out but it turned out ok. :)
I seem to be on a roll with scrapping, trying to get at least one Layout done a day :)

Halloween Prep and GB Class LO

Finished my attempt at the Green Buttons Cyber Crop - Use your Scraps challenge over on Ukscrappers. love the way the layout turned out but feel in away I ruined it by drawing in the letter Ts for the title, but didn't really have a choice as I desperatly wanted to use my lettering stickers and the Ts wouldn't have fitted and I only had one when I need two. And I wanted to complete the layout so I could move on to another lol. Had fun using my scraps and as I have a whole Pizza Box full I'm desperatly trying to get through useing them all :)

Close up of photo used and title.

I have a clear album that I haven't used yet and decided to draw round one of the flourishes on to scrap black cardstock and use my white Sukura pen to do false stitching, with out them think the Layout looked to plain.
Next up is my cakes, I used an Annabel Karmel Birthday cake recipe to make up the mix which was enough for these ghosts which didn't look as good as Annabel Karmels but sure tasted good :)

And this spider Sandwhich cake which we have yet to tuck into, may have a slice in a bit me thinks hehehe.

heres a top view of the spider cake.

And here are my three boys dressed up in the costumes and masks I made for the Space Party :) they did turn out well. Eldest and Middle Son had a fab time at the party and werent fussed about going trick or treating which was great.

As youngest was unable to go to the party due to his age I took him Trick or Treating but only to a friends and to my parents in law and a couple of houses that we knew, and he wanted to take his alien costume off and where a skeleton one instead, but insisted on wearing his deeley boppers which made him looke even more cute bless him.
