Embellish your World: It's a Celebration! Blog Hop

First off today "Happy Anniversary" to my darling husband to whom I have been married for 8 years today - the weather was certainly much warmer 8 years ago!! Love him to bits and am so proud to be his wife, he makes me a better person to be around and is my absolute rock. I am incredibly lucky and probably don't tell him often enough x

And so today is most definately a celebration for me, so I was more than happy to join in when fellow scrapbooker and friend Sandie asked me to be part of her blog hop. She celebrates her first Anniversary of blogging today and if you have arrived here on my blog from her, WELCOME xx

She asked the participants in her blog hop to share a creation be it card, layout, whatever along a celebration theme and I have chosen this layout that I scrapped as part of the ATDML blog hop that ran over the weekend - this for the MATERIAL challenge where you had to create a project featuring lace, ribbon, fabric or trims.

This Websters pages layout features a fabric trim I bought at Ally Pally craft show earlier this year, along with a Maya Rd clock and Tim Holtz metal spinners. A little stickles to the patterned flowers on the paper and not much else meant this page was created in record time - even for a speedy scrapper like me!! The photo was taken almost three years ago and I am struck by how similar it is to one my daughter took of us yesterday at a friends 40th party which I shared at the start of this blog post. Shows how in love we still are! (ok enough of the soppy stuff now I promise!)

So, where do you go now on this blog hop? and are you collecting your letters? I believe I am the keeper of a letter R which Sandie assures me will mean something to you hoppers!! Next up I am passing you over to Louise who continues Sandie's blog hop.

Have a great Monday one and all, and don't forget you have all week to take part in the ATDML classes from this weekend's cybercrop. Full instructions for each class can be found here on the main site and it's all FREE!

ENJOY YOUR WEEK!
