Eye of the Tiger

Well here I am on the other side of my knee op - a tad bruised and battered but certainly the better for it. I now have a knee that bends and straightens, oh sure I have a gait like a drunken sailor and I wince every time I shift my leg but the operation was a definite success :) So, it's crutches for another day and then it's full steam ahead - walking unaided, swimming and cycling mid July, running end August.

And now for the scrapping rap!

The night before my op I did the wp speed scrap. The wonderful Jules sent me a huge parcel of goodies and I used them to create this LO. Thanks again Jules, your surprise package made my day and this LO ;) Zoë at about five months.


I recently purchased the wp Fresh Print Kit. Princess Kate created a step by step LO using it. I started out following Kate's design - she has a great eye for structure and balance and then I added a few bits to make it my own - it's another baby Zoë LO:

These photos actually strike fear into both mine and Rob's hearts. They were taken during a week at the coast with Rob's Mum and her husband. A week in which Zoë did not sleep a wink during any of the seven nights. We were at our wits end and she was cheery and bossy and completely unfazed by the lack of sleep. I was six months pregnant and more than a tad tired and emotional. Neither of us are sure how we survived but luckily the LO is about her funky duds not her dud sleeping habits!

Scrapability held a cc the long weekend and I completed this LO for the first challenge. Oddly it's yet another featuring baby Zoë. Gosh I must be feeling sentimental...


This weekend is the cc over at Challenge Heaven. So, far I've done Amanda's challenge - another 'old school' pic but this time it's of five year old Angus.

I plan to spend the next few days completing the rest of the challenges - not much else I can do with one leg stuck out in front of me ;)

TFSB - stay warm (or cool) depending on where you live.
