A little bit of this and that

My blog is back to normal and looking just the way I want it, a few more alterations yet to be done. This would never have been possible without my husband's help, he has done an amazing job, he has gone used to me constantly bugging him to update things, I am slowly learning as well but definitely have a long way to go.

I can't believe how quickly my five days off has gone. I have got a fair bit done but have to admit I have mainly been following the news reports about Michael Jackson and listening to his music, I really can't believe this absolute legend is no longer with us, his music will always live on though, there will never ever be another Michael Jackson. I have so many happy memories of growing up with his music, his music has always made me feel happy. My two favourite memories related to Michael would have to be going to Venture's (does anyone remember this store?) with my dad to buy my very first cassette of Thriller, I listened to that cassette over and over again. I also danced to Thriller at our yearly concert in primary school, we all dressed up as skeletons and had so much fun. I somehow managed to fall off stage which made me realize I would never be part of MJ's dance troop :(

I am posting this week's submission for week 9 for the thirty weeks to christmas challenge over at Scrapbooking Top 50. For this challenge we had to do a LO where the edges of the page was dressed up. I decorated the outer edge of my page with rub-ons and stitching on buttons. On the inside edge I used journalling as part of the border and added scalloped ribbon to finish the border off. The photo featured n the LO is of my cousin's place in Baltimore, USA. I really enjoyed my time there last year in June and hope to go back there one day, if they have me :)
