I had a wonderful time at the Craft Show on saturday, the day went way too fast, I spent lots of money on fabulous scrappy things.. like stencils, dies, stamps, chip board and liquid pearls.. oh and flowers... beautiful flowers.. I did a class and sat with Gwen and chatted and enjoyed creating with Bec Beattie as instructor.. Saw lots of stunning creations around the hall, said a quick Hi to Cathy Cafun and Anne Patterson who were busy on stalls..Watched Limor Webber create magic with mists.. so a really good day.. now to save up for next year.. hehe!
I have created a layout for the June challenge over at ONCE UPON A SKETCH which is to use this sketch..
and use the theme of the best things in life arent things.. I changed that a bit and went with ...The most precious things in life aren't things..
The photo I have used is one of my DD and her cat, that has since died.. So the photo is very precious.. I have put a postcard of journalling on the back of the layout...
Thanks so much for your visit, and thanks so much for your wonderful comments that I really appreciate..
Sorry I missed you thereon Saturday...this is just lovely I love the rich feel to it!

ReplyDeleteOh Lizzy I am a little jealous about the expo and meeting some of my fave scrappers. I do wish we had more like that here. So glad you enjoyed yourself and came home with fabulous goodies. I love your layout and your journalling brought a tear to my eye too. It is never easy to loose a pet no matter how old. That is such a lovely photo of your DD and her beloved Tiger. Love the background page and all the fussy cutting. A really lovely feminine layout. Thanks so much for playing along with us at OUAS this month.

ReplyDeleteOooh you sure had a fabulous time at the expo Lizzy! I so wish I could do that one day too. There couldn't be a greater joy than to love a pet, they live in our hearts and souls in a different way than our children do.
