This is my scrapin Blog where I am going to keep all things I scrap about. I have discovered I love papercrafting and making things from paper and card. I have done crafts for years but have no record of them. Now I have decided it would be good to keep a record, so I am going to keep a record of everything I make so when I am forgetful I will be able to come back and go through my blog for a memory jog.

A Super gift from a friend
A very special friend gave me the little nurse mounted onto the white/brown swirl background and then onto the crimped white background. Then came up with the sentiment "Stop I have a rectal thermometer and I know where to shove it" I have been in hospital lately first to have both knee joints replaced then because I had an infection. The little gift my friend devised made me laugh as I am a nurse. I wanted to keep this as it is so special to me. I had a window box but it didn't quite fit so I made a blackmatand put gold interference on itto match the swirl paper she had used behind the nurse. Then on the window box I decided it would look better darker so I used walnut distress in and coloured the outside of the box and Disress ink pad Pine needles to add some colour to the inside of the box. Then I wondered if the interference would stick to the outside of the box and yep. It did so I used a SU stamp set Priceless to get the swirl pattern and used the gold interference and this is what it came out like. I love it and will find a place where I can display it.
