WOYWW #730 - Ribbon Box

The "When you are Scrapping and just have to sort the Ribbon Box" edition.

Now that's better. Filled some empty spools with ribbons from my hanging jail ring too.

Got another ATC all the way from the USA from Robyn, love it thanks. Just one to go now, think it may have got lost or I mis-interpreted the SWAP, not sure.

Finished the page, wasn't sure I'd use this side of this Basic Grey paper but it seemed to fit. It was the day of the Queen's Funeral, I'd worn black every day in the intervening days. 

This is the last page for my 18th day to day album. Just need to do the 4 others in between now.

Others I have finished are various stuff at the end of August. Receiving our new sofas and sending our old ones to our son. 

Then the day the Queen died, remember the rainbows over Winsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.

One last thing, I shared this petition on my Facebook page this week after a visit to the consultant last Wednesday afternoon. If you are in the UK and would like to support, mainly women, who suffer from the skin condition of Lichen Sclerosis would you be kind enough to sign it too it would be most appreciated.


Happy WOYWW Everyone.

  1. Oh there are some lovely layouts there! I still hoard a stash of Basic Grey cause I still adore it. It takes a special project for me to whip that out to use LOL! As a fellow sufferer or weird conditions (mine is called SINAM - ugh) is sympathise with you and will pop over to sign in a moment. Love your ribbon cause it looks so neat and organized. Mine is handy but looks a right mess. But then I have more lengths of ribbon from past kits, where they would send about 13 inches only but lots of them. Gotta find a good use for them!
    Happy WOYWW!

  5. Ha, love that you were distracted into ribbon sorting. They look like jewels don’t they, lovely shiny colours. Fab bunch of LOs. I think you’ve made perfect use of the BG lacy frame paper, it looks really good. I don’t have a link for the new badge logo thing, but you can save it as a picture from my WOYWW blog post and upload it to your blog that way. Will get a child involved to create a link for it next time they’re home!

  6. Happy WOYWW. Fantastic scrap pages. Petition signed (I have had Psoriasis since the age of 3, often hospitalised when I was younger, so recognise the difficulty of living with any skin condition). Ali x #17

  11. This is for all deskers regarding the Refrigerator/Freezer (R/F) debacle so I don't have to answer questions about it. Friend Sally is a member of our neighborhood (NH) online group and checked to see what available in our NH. She found a guy selling a R/F who lived about five blocks from me. I walked over and, even though I wanted a French Door R/F with a bottom freezer, I decided to buy this used R/F the NH man promised to deliver to my home right away. I spent all of Wednesday evening and Thursday getting the food out of the old R/F and into the new one. The used fridge looks very much like my old one. In fact, they are the same size and design. The man guaranteed the R/F for 90 days, so I couldn't beat that. Now I can take my time and buy the R/F I want and get it delivered in the time I want and not feel pressured or experience any lost food.

    I love the ribbon box redo. It is gorgeous, too. You have the best layouts. I especially LOVE the 2 page spread of the Queen and the one of you in black. I had NO idea your hair was THAT LONG!!!!
    Happy WOYWW from # 3.
