Cambridge Croppers-Scrapbooking

 

For the second time I joined some of my friends at Ifa’s Cambridge croppers in Trumpington, Cambridge.

I actually should have been enjoying myself in Chicago, but my trip had been moved to another date. So not everyone knew I was going to be joining the group. It was great to see how excited some of them where, that I was able to join them.

Antonia was thrilled to see me !

Ifa had two layouts for us to get working on.

I am so rusty at scrapbooking now. I find it hard to get my brain in scrapping gear. But I did my own thing for one of the layouts, purely and simply because I didn’t have an appropriate photos to use on Ifas design.

I used a texturized picture of Teddy. Tasmin calls him “ Little man” so when I saw the embellishment I used above, in the States, I grabbed it.

Hubby cannot be trusted when I am not there. When I left in the morning the front garden looked like this.

and when I returned it looked like this.

No tree. Nada.

Chris laid some grass seed where the tree used to be. He had me in hysterics the other day. He said the pigeons that sit on the fence all day tucking into his grass seed, say, “ I love these big houses. Their bird tables are massive !!”
