Scrap Schemes 23

....is now live

This weeks inspriation was this lovely picture



Lots of inspiration to be had just looking at it, sunset, colours, balloons etc.

In the end I settled, in the main, for the colours.




These piccies (plus more) of hubbys stay in China, should have been scrapped long ago. Who knows may get around to scrapping some more soon.

The little discs are small coin embellishments with chinese writing on, donated by my friend Karen hehe.

Papers are a mix of OA Cherry Hill and MME, on Dotted Swiss Cardstock.

Very plain and simple, but me!

Why not pop on over to the Scrap Schemes Blog and take a look at all the other projects for this week, theyre awesome!

No Scrapping.........

in sight the last couple of days.

Been trying to get my scraproom tidied up. Came back from the retreat and just dumped everything in there. Though the good news is wont take me long to do.

Keep meaning to find the time for a purge, but just cant face it, anyone else like that?!

So what else have I been doing.

Well been trying to get a bit fitter, no laughing! Cant spare the money on the Gym right now due to hubbys impending redundancy, so he bought me a Wii game instead LOL

Well not a game as such, this:



Oh yes, my very own personal trainer in a box haha!

EA Sports Active has a 5 star rating on Play.com, which kind of swayed hubby in buying it.

It features a wide variety of activities that target upper body, lower body, as well as cardio, cant be bad eh!

Well unless youre hubby or me, he tried it first and then hobbled around for a couple of days complaining about his stiff knees hehe.

Me? Well lets just say Ive started the 30 day challenge and I have never felt so knackered. OK I know, Im really unfit, but blimey! However, having finished the first day I can honestly say, now its over, I enjoyed it!

BUT and its a big BUT, Im not sure I can manage every single day, I will be in a big heap needing an oxygen tent, by the end of next week haha! Yes I really am that unfit!

So, my plan is to do every other day and tone up all or most of the bits that need toning up.......watch this space!!

Have a good weekend everyone! xox
