I found a mini album for the Scrapbook Dreams competition, 

Also found shadow boxes, frames and other OTP projects,

Lot of distress inks, flowers, pearls and angle wings.

Gosh... I've been so busy!  

I haven't had a chance to update my blog with some layouts

I recently completed at the Bookem retreat. 

I wasn't sure if I was going to make it however it turned out I could,

I only packed a small amount of goodies which worked in my favour

as I found I didn't have much to choose from and my layouts just worked with what I had.

Layout 1 - Noah christmas just gone and the next one is just around the corner.

First BIG BOY Tooth.
