once upon a sketch may challenge..

Hi all.. i have been busy with my friends album.. just doing the layouts for her has been a labour of love as my friend is one of those people who just are so precious.. i hope you have someone like that in your life too...so when i saw the sketch from http://onceuponasketchblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/may-1st-challenge-meet-our-may-guest.html i thought i would use it for the next two pages in my friends album.. yes that is right.. i have done a double.. i don't usually do doubles, but for this album i am.. so this is the sketch that inspired me.. and we had to use hand written journalling on a journalling spot..





My dear friend Marlene is a single mum and she and her daughter have a special bond which i hope is captured in these layouts..
thanks for taking the time to pop in and please let me know you were here so i can come to your place too!!xx
