Second stage of sunday crafting

So after the troops were fed, bathed and in bed I went and messed up the dining room again lol. I wanted to do a LO for us it had seemed like it was ages since I had added to the family album and I had a crop kit from a local shop using the Basic Grey Oliver papers that was calling to me.

I chose to use the collage photo of my monkeys and decided to try the crackle accents for the first time.

I then decided Hidden Treasures deserved something special so I have started altering box with DCWV Once Upon a Time papers and she is gracing the lid. It is still a work in progress

Finally I have been meaning to share this LO ever since I did the LO of my hubby in uniform on our anniversary. Here is a LO I did in 2007 of him attending a Remembrance service.
