Stumped

Well the HS:MS prompt for the day stumped me CHEW .................. i have no cute pet to catch the cats ran and hide, no cute child either mine big and camera phobic! and no helpful person or animal came along today........................ so i passed.



Did make it to my scrapbooking club tonight always a nice change to get out and play with paper and glue without interuptions, it was the monthly kit from http://www.totalpapercraft.co.uk/ looked scary and bright but really pleased with it, unsure about cutting up photo was experimenting ( looks more like prison bars ! )

the grief i got friday from kids as no prompt word...................... almost made up my own , but back in swing of it today : )


oh saw space monkeys yesterday at cinema well worth a look if you got kids to take, and thats from me who has no sense of humour!!!!!!

Rust



Well what a day i had to go to the dentist and to say scared is understatement try terrified !!!!!! at 42 had to get my mum to take me bless her what would i do without her,

HS / MS prompt for day Rust - i can't take credit for these as are only 2 of about 30 that my son took while hunting the garden for rust, thank heaven for digital cameras or i would be going through films like toilet paper,





amazing how 1 prompt can keep an adult and 2 children occupied for so long, if you haven't tried to go take alook at thier site,

Pipes


HS/MS prompt of day is pipes - A tube of material in which to feed liquid or air. Have you got a fine set of pipes?


i'm pinching a idea from a fellow blogger hope she doesn't mind who i came across through HS /MS the prompt made her think of a song and there for past memories, best i can do for song is :


Paul McCartney - pipes off peace

Help them to learn (help them to learn)

Songs of joy instead of burn, baby, burn(burn, baby burn)

Let us show them how to play the pipes of peace

Play the pipes of peace


and here's my pipe piture to for it :)
