Just now ...

...inspire by Lisa's LO from yesterday, I really enjoy doing these sorts of LOs every now and again. I got the idea for the flowers from the October Afternoon blog, I've seen a few around but think the machine stitched centres are a great addition. I didn't have an up to date photo of myself so I took this very hurried self portrait (well when there's an urge to create you just have to get on with it!) If you click on the picture you should be able to read the journalling, although it's slightly blurry.

I've mentioned about my handwriting, well I recently bought a manual typewriter which came in very handy for this LO. I don't intend to use it all the time, just when I think the design will be spoilt by my scrawl!!! The girl's have had such fun using it, they think it's great to be able to punch a key and see the printout straight away!

Edit - It helps if I can get my numbers the right way up, thanks Emma!

I really like this idea, I think that I might try something like this soon too! Love your lo, really nice sunny colour (BTW you have your 6 on as a 9 - hope you don't mind me pointing that out)
