Hello 2015!

I cannot believe Feb is nearly over and this is my first post for 2015.

I am heartbroken and very sad to tell you that my Mum lost her fight with cancer on January 11th.
I won't go into the story too much as it is still so raw and painful but I am so proud of her and she fought until that final day when she could fight no more.
My sister and I were with her every minute until the end, just as she had wished for.
I honestly thought I was prepared for life without her but now I know I wasn't at all.
Each day without her is harder than the last but I hope that with time I will heal and for that reason I am trying to take some time out to scrap again and use that for therapy and a way to connect with myself again.

Yesterday was also a year to the day since I found out I had Leukaemia and I am so blessed to be where I am today with the success of my medication.  Certainly reason for celebration.

I started with a page for Scrap Around The World using this divine mood board:



I had the perfect photo and it was a great start for me, nothing too emotional, but just something I could get my hands a little dirty with :)

And I thought I would throw in some close ups.
I actually used some of my Mum's supplies which were the Donna Salazar Inx.  They are just beautiful to work with and so much easier than mists.

So hopefully the mojo has returned....well at least a bit.  I have a scrappy weekend retreat next weekend so I can't wait to see "my girls" and have lots of laughs and scrappy time.

Until next time.
