CJ Chat - 1

Thank you for the little bookmark Karelyn. I will need to adjust your pages slightly but instead of cutting them back I am going to cut slots instead.

Looking forward to seeing the pics.

Maria's very excited that her CJ might be there when she goes home
at the weekend. Told her I was very pleased with mine.

BTW, I have decided on my subject for the next round of CJs

Hope we don't clash. Don't know why I didn't think of it last time.
I'm going to go with everyone's favourite crafts - folks will be able to
choose one craft or up to how many they want. Obviously, they will do
an example of the crats they love best.

ooh what a good idea Steph,
I would have to choose a book about Klimt as mine, I am formulating a plan as we speak...

come on, put those piccies up..i am getting impatient to peek. x x

I'll try and put my photos up tomorrow or Monday. Den is on the mend but
he is still not brilliant so have been looking after him.

HEY !!!!! you girls are utter utter champs! My CJ was the best welcome home today and also far far better than I ever imagined and EXACTLY what I had in mind.

Each and every one of you has done a fabulous job and i feel so honoured to have all this lvoely work you have all done. I shall treasure it always.

I have taken photos of all the pages I did for people except Sue's which I forgot and Lorraine did for me, so I will await instructions and a bit of time to put the pics up.

and yes, you bet I am going to rank them. its close, so close.....

Ok, so by my reckoning, we only have to wait for Kate, Cynthia, Sandy and Sue to get theirs. Is that right?

Also, could everyone who HAS received theirs back please try to get piccies up ASAP? I don't know about everyone else, but I'm DYING to see them all!!!!!

I'll try and get mine done tomorrow Bobs. Everyone is back at work so hope to
do that before anything else.

I will do it asap Bobs, but its going to probably be the end of the week.

Oh dear, I think I came across as sounding like an old school marm! Sorry girls, I didn't mean to.

As I said, I'm just dying to see them all! Take your time girls - so long as you get them posted eventually!

Not at all Bobs, and I do understand about wanting to see them PDQ. I am the same.

It took me so long to scan them all last night I never got to photobucket them too, then there's the old getting them on the forum trick. I'm out tonight but will try asap. It is sort of quicker when everyone puts their own on each thread, but I guess it all adds up to the same in the end, and you do at least get a whole book this way.

I've put my CJ on but lost it twice before I managed to get it on safely
the third time. It's so annoying to lose it all when you're a long way
through. Very frustrating and I was going to resort to posting in stages.

Dear "Miss" - please could I be excused photographing mine until I have got round to all the occupational therapists, nurses, doctors, social workers, day nurses and night nurses, old uncle tom cobley and all leaving my little home to give me some peace and quiet!!! I will be as quick as I can, honest Miss.

Please don't rap my knuckles with a ruler though!!! LOL. xxx

I think you'll be allowed a late pass Patty LOL

Definitely! xxxxx

Sorry Bobs slow to get off the mark with mine. Have scanned a couple of pages and hope to get the rest done over the weekend and then onto photobucket and then onto here. Not very good at this so please bear with me and hope fully you'll get to see mine soon!

am determined to do both this and the tag swap before bed even if I dont go to bed all night. Sorry ive been so busy this week, I have only just really had a chance to look at the lovely thing properly. I do adore it and it will be 'coming soon' to a forum near you.

Right so I'm back off holiday and intend to have Sandys CJ done by the end of the week, then I need to collect Cynthia's from Cath & I think it's only fair Cath keep a hold of mine until I get the others done, cos I been a naughty naughty girl!

Have had a look at the CJ pics up and they all look wonderful

Mine's come home omg its fantastic I've spent all morning reading it. Thank you all so much, it goes from the 1930's to the 80's and is so full of information its like an encyclopedia, I really, really love it. I will start photographing it tomorrow and get the pics up asap (cant do it now got to go to work in an hour)

Sandys CJ is done so will get Gary to drive me over to drop it off at Cynthias this weekend!

Then I shall spend next week working on Cynthias (which looks fantastic!).

Also as mentioned I has my CJ back and putting piccies up now if photobucket lets me. Thank you to everyone, my CJ is really great and all the pages made me smile

Both CJs are done!


I got Cynthia's yesterday and inspiration came along and whacked me round the head and I've got it done in record time and I think it looks darn good as well

So Cynthia, be prepared for a visit this weekend!

cor girl, slow down....

can't wait to see what you have done.

Well done KT, does that mean your craft room is sorted now?

My craftroom is currently useable lol Need to sort out my bookcase, then will take some more pics to show what state its in now

I'm assuming all of these are now at their destinations?

I only ask because Sandy has not posted at all. Did she like it?

I'd like to see all the finished ones too, so Sandy...if you're out there.... and Cynthia, if you find time, hun can you upload some pics for us?

Yes, it does seem a shame not to hear anything when everyone has put in so much effort to these lovely things. I was so very proud to be able to show mine when it was finished and keep looking at it time and time again.

Yes, come on girls, show us what what haven't seen, we want to see what everyone else did.
