Blogging Friends.......and meeting KathyK

I realised when I had no computer.....how much I missed my blogging friends.....reading all your blogs.....seeing what you were doing and making.....reading your comments on my own blog.
This summer I was lucky enough to meet up with 2 of my bloggy friends......I've already blogged about my fun meeting with Rinda........and during my holiday I also managed to meet up with the lovely KathyK.......so I'm really pleased to have a 'Kathy' page for my holiday album. 
It was cold and blowing a gale......in a little town that certainly didn't live up to expectations.....with a craft shop that even 2 avid crafters found difficult to find anything to buy in!!!!! But we still had a lovely afternoon chatting and eating cake......when we weren't being blown away!!!!
Another page using only patterned paper.......this is something I never did before Shimelle's class.......and I'm so pleased to be using up this K & Co paper......I've used a lot of it in this album.......and I'd previously found it difficult to use......even though I still like it.

This turned out great. I admit to being flummoxed by the "stacking" prompt, but you've done so well with it! I think it's all about porportions - your title is just the right size. So glad to have you back - I know I said that yesterday but seeing you back two days in a row makes me realize how much I missed your happy posts!

Hmm, I think Kate Winslet perfected that movement!! Lovely layout, Jacky and great to have you back and blogging. It was fun to meet up with you - where are you vacationing NEXT year and will we get to do it all again?

Happy Monday

Brilliant! It's great to see you enjoying yourself with a blog friend. Here's to blog friends all over the place, because it's not really blogging if you are just talking to yourself is it? :).

Love your page. You are definitely giving me incentive to start scrapping again Jacky.

Yes, that does look like a Titanic moment! It is so fabulous you were able to catch up with blog friends this year!

Aw, I love this layout, Jacky, and the fact that you got to meet another blogging friend. It's the best! The photo of you and KathyK is so cute - looks like you two had some fun together. :o)

Photo is too funny! Less focused shopping probably meant even better conversations so maybe the lack of inspiring merchandise was a good thing ;)

This looks wonderful - I love the way you've done your journalling so it looks as if the words are being swept away by that wind!

It looks great. I can see why you liked the paper. Great that you met up with not 1 but 2 blogging friends.
