I was enjoying the feeling of being on top of things project wise, until I realised there are only seven days left in November and now the Deadline bogey-man is on my tail... One project I did manage on time was a page swap with some arty blogging buddies over in the U.S. I even sent them off 5 days early. Mexican wave indeed. They've arrived safely so I thought I'd share them today.
Love the feeling of this one. Be honest. Who doesn't want to be the little girl with the best butterfly costume in the whole world? Yes even now...
And one for that alas too rare a find, the crafty Gent! It's a revamp of an old design but I do love this chap as he just makes me chuckle every time.
The month is rocketing ahead, so a quick reminder about November's My Mojo Monthly. There are six fabulous entries so far, and still time left if you would like to play along! I also want to say a really HUGE THANK YOU to all my visitors last week. I was overwhelmed and very happy to see you all. Just fabulous! Right, I'm off! Got the number 99 bus to all of your desks... Sarah.

Hi, I'm just doing a quick whizz round a few desks while I eat my breaky and before my little grandees arrive [I've got 4 of them coming this morning now :-) ].
Your life sounds as busy as mine at the mo. :-)

Hi there. Thanks for letting us peek into your creative space this week. It's always inspiring seeing where and how we create! Hope the rest of your week goes very well for you. Those pages are really great and full of personality. I guess I'd better choose my hat carefully from now.....

Beautiful pages Sarah. I love the nostalgic vintage feel of the pages. Thanks for sharing! Hope you have a great week. Vickie #64
Love your space...great projects!
Great layouts, Sarah! Pleeeeease don't remind me how short a time it is till the dreaded C... I've been ill all week with a throat infection and I'm soooo behind. This time of year makes me want to emigrate to somewhere where they don't celebrate the Midwinter Festival which only seems to honour over-indulgence and busy-ness for its own sake lol lol lol!!! Happy WOYWW, Shoshi #70
Great pages, I love the butterfly girl best, although being a true butterfly she has managed to morph between the photos!

I think it's the way his moustache seems to go up one side and down the other!! It adds a certain devil-may-care attitude to him :) Love your trip down memory lane with the photos, great butterfly dress. I'd quite like one now, thank you :)

I guess we crafters will all be burning a little of the midnight oil over the next few weeks!! Lovely layouts there. As for that box - that may also be my sanity in there!! Two craft fairs in three days - I must be nuts!! Never mind - I will be laughing in New York (that is where my funds for the next few years are going - roll on 2015!!) Yes a long time away but Buddy and I are going for our "special" birthdays!
I love your pages ...especially the first one . Not sure how I missed you but then I am all over the place this week ...might give up and just appologise next week on my post. xx
A messy desk is a happy desk and yours is very happy, love it. Your page swaps are gorgeous.
hah! I shall tell my dentist to join in with WOYWW as he does look at my blog sometimes (seeing i have a link on my emails he couldn't really not look!) a before and after picture??? I once came across a blog were the lady had had an op....yep....see took pictures of it all the way though....(I've never been back!) The pages are fabulous, very nice swap.Have a great week! HaPPy WoYWw!

You always have such an arty looking desk, I love coming to see what is on it each Wednesday.
Those projects are gorgeous. I love the childhood one, the green border sets off that photo so well.
I don't think you are alone in being chased by the deadline bogey man!!
Happy WOYWW
