Guides International Fun Day

Hello Everyone,

I went to a International Fun Day with Guides today, completed 10 different Christmas activities:
Made a Swedish House, 'White Christmases' Australian Christmas cakes, igloos on biscuits (marsh mellows, digestives and icing), Corkscrew Rudolph the Reindeer, Wreath (Made out of a curtain hanger hook thingy and ribbon), Snow globes which had Reindeer from Norway, Clay (for Diwali - festival of light), Knitting kinda thing!?! and a Christmas card - which is really cool if I must say!). There must be one more but just can't remember what it is...

Also, when we came in whilst we were waiting for the other guides to turn up we has to complete a quiz - we had 28 different languages that all say Merry Christmas and we had to work out which language was which. But guess what I got them all right!! Yay!!

And just realised that my 13th birthday is now only 1 month away! Yay! xx

Journal Your Christmas - Album cover & Title Page


I am all organised and have made my title page and decorated my cover for JYC. This is the first year in the running and hopefully it will turn out well, (We'll have to see). For my album I've gone for a 12x12, (TKMaxx is so good! I got this album and also another 12x12 album for True stories!) but I've added and 8x8 title page (and 1st December) and a 6x6 page for I think the 6th & 7th December.

The album had a little picture hole so instead of a photo I put the right size Christmas card and stuck 'JYC 10' on the plastic (but obsessive compulsive disorder it has to have an equal white border round the card!)

The title page its 8x8 and has lots of little Christmassy pictures like teddies, nutcrackers, Christmas tree etc and added American Craft Thickers, ribbon and a brad! I've just done the basic but I think it's quite effective, (but that's my opinion!!).

Only 19 days!!
