Hi Marilyn,

I really like the embossing on your pages especially the layouts themselves.

You are a talented lady.

Hugs, Kate

They are awesome, Marilyn and yes I did get your email. May take till = next week for me to get going on the werbsite again!

Thanks Lynne....I used PSX stickers for the wildlife embellishments and the distressing is Ranger's Archival Ink in Sepia, applied direct to paper. First time I've tried applying from inkpad to paper....I usually use a dauber or sponge to apply...play safe :o) Oh...and the torn patterned paper is distressed with chalks. Basically used the lot....LOL + 40 bradlets

I like your LO alot. Very nice! I also looked through your card album, your cards are gorgeous. I have to learn how to do the quilling. It have a very nice look on cards.

Nice layouts, Marilyn! Where in the Highlands were the pics taken?

Marilyn...Love your Los. Had to browse around while I was there and I do like your style. Now I have this refrain going around in my head. ...."my heart is in the Highlands"...just me and Robbie Burns. Thanks you for sharing.

Thanks Sandy...the stickers are not embroidered...they come from PSX = range. You are right...there are 40...but they are bradlets..not = eyelets.

Thanks Chrissy...I really enjoyed the March challenge. Thanks for the comments on my cards also...that was were I started with papercraft but had a long break while DH converted my attic to make this craft room. I just spent the time building my stash so I would be ready to hit the ground running, so to speak...LOL Then I discovered scrapbooking :o) Started mid December and have done around 50 LO's to date....no. of cards 30???? LOL. If you want to really be bowled over with quilling go to

and have a look in their gallery...too die for!!!!! Marilyn

Thanks Alicia...the info is in the journalling but perhaps you can't read it too easily. The main picture on both pages were take at Ballachulish, which is at the foot of Glencoe in the Cairngorms, or Western Highlands. The first page is me (much slimmer) in front of the Ballachulish Hotel (very posh place) and the main picture on the second page is looking out over the Loch Leven in front of the Ballachulish Hotel. The picture doesn't actually do it justice, as it is deteriorating and I had to restore it slightly. Have to say that the 'actual' view is probably one of the best I have seen.....fantastic!!!! Here is a good link you may be interested in

Two of the other pictures were taken at Glenshee, Perthshire. This is a very popular ski resort in winter but is also popular in the summer, as a trip up in the chairlift provides you with spectacular views all over that area. Need your woolly pully though as it is freezing up there, even on a hot day......brrrrrrh!!! The last picture of me sitting on the side of Queen Victoria's Well is actually on the Balmoral Estate, Royal Deeside, Perthshire. This is the Queen's Scottish residence and on the High Road you can find some areas where you can actually look down on Balmoral Castle, it is not totally secluded. That is where the well is situated and was intended for travellers on the estate when horses were the main mode of transport.
