Another overdue posting. Sorry! To be honest I think the reason between posts is the time it takes to try and balance the page - I'm no good with Blogger and everything looks good on the pane when I'm putting things together, but as soon as it's published I'm in and out like a fiddlers elbow beacuse it doesn't publish how I've laid it out on the draft pane (does all that babble make sense??).

I have been having fun with my little journal that I started with Sarah Anderson during her journaling class at Paddy's way back at the beginning of March and of course keeping my calendar for Kate's 2010 365 Challenge up to date.

Things have not been going too well at work so I am ultra thankful for the long bank holiday weekend so that I can smoosh with paints and just chill.

My completed March page for the Calendar Challenge and my page for April. Everyone seems to have gone with the April showers theme and this page was going in the same mode but I can't find the little die cut brolly that Sarah cut during the journal class. She cut various shapes for templates/masks/stencils for us to practice in our journals and I had not one but 2 cute little brollys - but for the life of me I can't find them now - typical! They will surface soon no doubt.

Another page for my Northern Lyrics journal - I love these lyrics and I have told hubby I want this track playing at my funeral (happy sort I know - and yes I've also told him that I will be going before him LOL. I've got it all sussed).

And finally some pages from my 'play journal'. I love these Stampotique images and plan on getting a whole rake more - birthday list is already drawn up LOL. When I showed them to my youngest son his reaction was "Urgh - Mum's gone all Emo on us" Mwhahaha.

Well they have all been instructed what to get me for my birthday (not until July so plenty of time for them to save!) so whoa be tired whoever turns up with M & S vouchers. BTW the 'ladies' are not Stampotique - they are an old set of stamps from Inkadinkado (I think).

A huge thank you to the ladies who have joined my blog - it's so encouraging to think that people find my work interesting enough to look at. I only wish I had half the talent of most the bloggers who I follow - Huge thanks again ladies'.

OK I've spent over an hour trying to balance this entry and it keeps doing it's own thing so I'm going to leave it as it, because it's starting to annoy me now.

Can anyone point me in the directon of Blogger's 'An Idiots Guide' please!
