What's In A Title?

The blog title is my take on my favourite quote from Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novel, when Bella realises she is in love with vampire Edward. My version is slightly less impressive than that in the book but never the less true:


"About three things I was absolutely positive, first I was an obsessed crafter, second, there was a part of me - and I didn't know how potent that part might be, that thirsted for beautiful craft materials, dies, stamps, papers, cardstock etc, and third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with scrapbooking and cardmaking"

Strike A Pose







Another scraplift from the Fancy Pants gallery, this time the original is by a very talented lady called Vicki Chrisman, hope she doesn't mind me posting her Vintage layout here. I copied the position of the papers, my favourite papers at the moment, Happy Together by Fancy Pants then die cut some flowers and leaves using sizzix dies and then trimmed the flowers to give a "tattered" look and shaped then with a large balled embossing tool and made some greet flowers using florists ribbon and added a butterfly cut from using a Marianne die. The photo is of my daughter's best friend Maddi, who is a dance student and always looks stunning.
