A return to scrapbooking.........

 I went to a crop on Saturday - I can't tell you have wonderful it was to craft without any pressure at all. No deadlines - no must have project just go with the flow and see what happens.  I will show you what I did last Saturday another day - this is what I did today after purchasing a few scrapbook kits from the crop.
This looks nothing like the layout in the pack except the colours and papers. I found I wanted to go my own way once I had chosen the photograph to play with
Our Megs playing the "play me I'm yours " piano in St Pancras station, London.
 I neary burst with pride that day as Megs played Bellas lullaby from Twilight and White clouds the piece she played at the Remembrance concert 2 years ago.
The lady in the photo to Megs Left was reduced to tears and called her an Angel who played beautiful music. She was not wrong there but it was lovely for a complete stranger to appreciate my amazing daughter and her playing.
Lots more scrapbooking to show but I will wait for another day.
Papers and card by Stampin up.

  1. Wow Janet, lovely post, it must be so nice having a family member who is musical. None of us are. Although my Sister has three children and two of them sing for a living in Barrow, but not any of my family.
    Gorgeous Layout, I must admit Scrapbooking is my first love!

    1. All my children are musical although the eldest gave up his trumpet playing at 15 - he was really good but I had to respect his wishes. My middle son is away on a cruise ship playing guitar with a 10 piece band - he is LOVING it! I must say I was so proud when Megs said she wanted a go because it showed me how much her confidence was growing in her own ability - her playing is gentle and atmospheric which very much affects your emotions - It was lovely that the lady also felt it xx I scrapped loads today it was bloomin' fab :) will share more tomorrow x
