It's time for finals...

The minor round has now finished and it is time to turn the atttention to finals...
Hamish's team - Under 11 reds has finished minor premiers, not a bad result at all and all very exciting for the boys as this year is the first year they have played for premiership points.... Brandon's team - Under 16 reds has finsihed third. If they loose next Sunday then it is season over for them. If Hamish's team wins they are straight into the Grandfinal and if they loose they get another chance.....It is all very exciting.

I created this layout for the competition I am hosting at Heaven-sent this month. the pink dress in the photo was smocked, sewn and embroidered by my Mum in 1960 as part of her assessment in dressmaking in her final year of school. The other dress I smocked and made in 1986, this was my first attempt at smocking and soon I was smosking lots of dresses for my daughter. Each dress took an average of 8 - 10 hours to smock. Taylor loved to wear these pretty dresses.

A little update

I know I have been a little quite lately....having my thumb joint replaced and having a plaster on really slowed me down, and just as the plaster was to come off I was admitted to hospital with a DVT in my left leg....But things are now well on the way to recovering.

So hopefully soon I will have some new scrapbooking layouts to share with you.

In the mean time why not check out what is happen at Heaven-sent this month. There are 3 great competitions this month and the new design team has been announced, I am really excited as I am still on the team and the team has now been expanded to 8.

Happy scrapping...

Karen
