I have been revising the lesson I had last week using Photoshop elements 5.0 to change the colour of part of an image and add an image from one photo to another. In another photo I practised erasing an image (a post) from the photo.
Here is the result of altering the larger photo above! It has taken me all afternoon!! No scrapping got done!!

Day 6 A Snapshot of My Life



I had to do our Saturday breakfast routine today. For years I have stayed in bed (what's new!!)and Peter gets up, makes a cup of tea, goes and buys the papers and then cooks a breakfast for us both. This started when he went to London or locally every Saturday to watch football and this meal kept us going until our evening meal.

Day 4 A Snapshot of My Life

Well I stayed in bed this morning while the rain lashed the windows and the winds blew round the house :( and snuggled under my duvet until mid morning trying to decide on my routine today......should I scrap or do the dreaded housework. I thought I would scrap but in the end did some DHW!!( Peter took the 9.17 bus to work, yes, he missed the 9.02 bus :) but I didn't get out of bed for him.) So this is my routine for today:) BUT please note those who know me, n0 ironing LOL!!
This afternoon I had problems with my Picasa programme, have had this problem since I added Photoshop elements 5.0 to my computer aand needed that programme for this collage so spent all pm trying to sort it out and finally did but now have a drink in one hand :( !!!

After SW Peter and I went to Ashford and met another UKS scrapper Karen and her husband for coffee, lunch and little retail therapy :) It was a great day and I think I have made another friend IRL after just being a cyber friend!!

Day 3 A Snapshot of My Life



Today I had my weekly routine of going to Slimming World to weigh in and stay for the 'chat'. I have been doing this since May 2009 [for 33 weeks excluding holidays] This week I have lost 3 1/2 lbs and I am very happy lady. The last certificate I received was for losing 31/2 stone I am now working towards my 4 stone award hopefully next month! We all take fruit each week for the Slimmer of the Week, today I took a grapefruit [and a banana for my breakfast!]
