Scrap - fever. The temperature is rising.

I'm off this weekend to Scrapfever.  It's a scrapbooking retreat which I have never attended before but which I am really looking forward to.  It should be fun.  Lots of old friends to meet up with and lots of lovely classes.  It will be a big step forward for me to actually commit to scrapping again over a sustained period and I am really excited about it.  I have printed my photos and got everything out.  (Thank goodness I tidied up the room - finding it all was so easy!)

    These are some photos of my garden project at the moment.  It is a biggie!  I have had a huge front garden which is very open but which gets all the afternoon sun so I can't sit in the sun in the back garden.  I have created an area with a patio and we are currently working on getting the flower bed dug around the front of the fence before doing the planting - more photos later when the project is completed.  Here are a couple of other to show you what is on the other side of the fence!       Room for sitting out, having a meal and generally chilling, all out of sight of the world passing by!

 

My camera has been replaced - not repaired, replaced by a more current version.  (Mind you mine was only 7 months old!) but I now have a Nikon S225 which has 10 megapixels so I am pleased to be able to include photos once more in my blog.

What a fantastic idea to capture the sun in the front garden, what a lovely area you have made. Look forward to seeing the photos of the plantings etc.

Have fun at Scrapfever, sounds wonderful. Enjoy.

Much love, Sue x

What a wonderful idea to screen off an area of your front garden - it is looking really good. I love the shape, what kind of plants are you going to have around the paving?

Have a great time at scrapfever.
