Way overdue

I just realised it has been ages since I updated on here. A couple of new things - one thing that Im pretty proud of is: It has been 9 weeks since Rob and I gave up smoking. I think considering the amount we both smoked its a great achievement. The next awesome bit of news is the new addition to our extended family - the birth of my little cousin Caitlyn Rose Johnston, born on the 12th March at 1.13pm weighing 7lb 4oz and 51cm in length. Daniella is now a proud big sister (and big is the word, she is growing WAY too quickly). To record this moment I have now completed my page for March:

I can also now show you the cards and cross sitch I made for little Caitlyn. The only unfortunate thing with this is some silly person (although I blame my proofreader lol) put 2008 instead of 2009 on the cross stitch. This has since been fixed but I forgot to take a photo of the correct version lol. I made two cards because we didnt know what to expect so we have a blue version and a pink version:

I also finally got around to finishing and framing a cross stitch that I started ages ago:

And now for two scrapbook layouts I have done. The first one was for another Queens Challenge over at stamping scrap, this time Nicki was made Queen. Nicki's challenge was for us to do a page based on a Queen song. Now thankfully Nicki named a few songs to help get us started, my song of choice was "You're my best friend", with my best friend being my Mum. She is an amazing woman and has achieved so much, to me she would be an inspiration to anyone. Anyway enough mushy stuff, we had some really nice photos of Mum from the wedding so here is my layout:

And since she is so wonderful and looked so great, Mum was also used for my Little Shop of Sketches layout on sketch 34 (see stampin scrap for more details).

Ok last one, I was going to leave it there but I couldnt resist showing a layout I did featuring Daniella, this also shows how quick she is growing although the photo was taken at christmas. This layout was used for little shop of sketches, sketch 33.

Thats enough for now, and thanks for looking :)
