Oh Christmas Tree

Hi, Last night I did this LO for the Scrapware challenge and while doing it my chair was giving me the sh*ts, making nosies every time I moved and I thought I was going to wake up everyone in the house, so when I went to bed I thought I might go and see if I could get a new chair in the morning, anyway when Ben came home from work he had the junk mail with him and a office works was in there, with chairs for sale, $49.oo so I brought one and a little bookcase $29.oo for my scrap room too.
So when I got home Ben made the chair up and the bookcase for me, (I could do it but why if he wants to lol! ) then I needed a little draw set to put all my Scrapware in, which I found at Kmart $19.00, I am so happy with my goodies I brought, that I cleaned my scrap room up and what a great start to the year! I'll take photos in the morning.

Scrapware challenge LO,

The docket for the Christmas tree which was brought in 1966, it was my Aunty Marie's and she brought it from David Jones her first year in Australia, I love the tree it's not like the ones you get today it's made from metal.

Lillian torso from Scrapware, I glued on the old music paper, let it dry alittle bit, then pulled it back off, leaving only parts of it. The wings where giving to me by Linda B and the doily is one of Jodie Butler's.
Alphas where Glimmer Misted then Kindy Glitz.
The tree is from Webster's Pages which I cut out and blinged!
That's all folks, Gilly ox
