Day Two

At school everyone has a best friend and mine was called Rose. We started school together and after that were stuck like glue to each other.

Rose's dad was a policeman and they lived in police accomodation. When we were 17 the police houses were sold and Rose and her family had to move away to another area. Sadly we lost touch.

In 2016 thanks to the wonders of Social Media Rose sent me a message and we arranged to meet up for coffee.



It soon became a regular thing and it really felt like we had never been apart. We did a lot of catching up.

In late 2016 Rose was sadly found to have blood cancer. Even worse it was a type that had no cure. She fought every step of the way, but sadly lost rhe fight in 2017, only a year after we first met up again.

This scrapbook page is about Rose. It is the first page in a scrapbook documenting my jpurny with My Peak Challenge. That is because one of the charities supported by MPC is Blood Cancer UK.

I like to think she is happy with what I have done with MPC. Rose pointed me towards MPC, and MPC made me a happier, healthier, and better person.

Creative Christmas Crafting

     Today's card is made using the Paper Pantry Vol X11 USB by Creative Crafting World. I used an 8x8 in card blank. I used a mat of gold mirri card which I cut to 7.75 by 7.75 ins and then glued it onto the front of the card. I chose two matching backing papers. These paper patterns are also reflected in the topper I chose. I chose the decorative paper first and cut it to 7.5x7.5 ins and glued it on top of the mirri card. Next I cut a piece of gold mirri card at 5.25x5.25 ins and glued it in the middle of the card. I cut the green paper at 5x5ins and glued it on top of the mirri card. The plain green paper is one of the coloured cards from the Collection. As it was just going into mats and layers I just printed it onto paper. I chose the topper and when I had cut it out I measured it and cut a piece of gold mirri card quarter of an inch bigger all around. Then I carefully glued them into the centre of the card. You could leave it at that but I wanted to add something extra. I had...

Making Videos

As you know I am busy getting content onto my YouTube Channel. I have made several videos over the last couple of weeks. I am not 100% comfortable with talking on videos. I am very aware of my very Geordie accent. I also get very nervous and feel like I am stumbling over my words, or in some places I feel there are awkward silences. I have tried making videos with no commentary in them, but they aren't right either. I am hoping I have found the solution to my problem. I have discovered this handy little app. It has enabled me to edit photos together and add text instructions to the pictures. I have been playing with it over the past couple of days, and so far I am impressed. I shall be adding videos made with this app soon. In the meantime if you would like to check out my YouTube Channel  you can find it here  Celticmoon Crafts YouTube Channel Until next time Happy Crafting
