oh dear!!

It seems I've run out of free storage space for photos and google won't let me upload anymore!  How strange ?

Looks like my return to blogging is destined to be a very short one, because there is no way that I'm paying to do a blog.

For all those wondering if Eli has grown...

Yes and in the words of Auntie Laura he's a little hooligan!  Evidence...

one large living room covered with toys and what does he want to play with?  

Yep - Laura's phone!   Why do we buy all these fancy items for kiddies when all you need is something they are not supposed to touch like a phone or a remote control for the TV?

• Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Friends...

Phew think I've just made it with this page for two challenges at Frosted Designs .  I used their present sketch and followed their recipe of 3 patterned papers, two buttons and a one word title.  I don't find it easy to combine patterned papers so this was a toughie for me, but if you look very carefully I did sneak a tiny sneaky bit of a third patterned paper around the edge of the journalling circle.  Quite a clever/lucky break having that paper actually cause it matches the colours on Ann's T shirt.

Materials used...

• G.C.D. papers
• Cricut to cut the large petalled circles and letters
• Spellbinder tag and swirl die
• Flower punch
• inkjet acetate to print journalling on
• tiny buttons and organza ribbon

Additional challenge...

• Pollycraft - Favourite Things (going on holiday, Italy, gorgeous designer patterned papers and most important of all - Friends!)

Have a great week everyone.  I'm hoping to complete the facing page to this one in between work, but it going to be tough.
