He is 8!

 

Yep, my eldest little love is 8 (Well this was back in March)!  My gosh where on earth have those 8 years gone, he's got so big and almost as tall as his Mummy.....but that's not too hard.  I have created this layout based on the June sketch over at Pretty Little Studio .

 

It was certainly a different one for me but I think I love the end result. 

 

  I chose a mixture of papers from a few collections, most being scraps or part used pieces.  Of course I still layered up my photo with papers also.  I just love the stencils from the Treasure Island Collection and used the Today piece on the left hand side.  I stamped it with feathers and added thread, twine and watercolour.

Love this, I really need to get my camera out more often but I'm such a slackie sometimes :(

 

Oh well, life is just busy I guess!!!

 

Enjoy your weekend,
