Cuddles

The past couple of months life has flown by and I have not been doing as much scrapping as usual. Luckily for me my Fibro/ME while still being bad has calmed down enough that I could attend my monthly crop again :) Whilst there I completed my entry for this month's Purple Pumpkin Sketch Challenge which I combined with my DT work for Ditzy-Craftymess this fortnight which luckily enough was buttons :) For any-one who has wandered over from Ditzy-Craftymess please follow the link to have a look at the Purple Pumpkin site their buttons are gorgeous and their DT is amazing :)

Anyhow here is my layout;


The photo is from Christmas 2009 when my husband was back on RnR from his latest tour in Afghanistan and our youngest who was 9 months old at the time wouldn't leave him alone :) I love this photo and am so glad to have scrapped it at long last :)

Here is a close up of the Purple Pumkin buttons and embellishments, the cog, paper doily and buttons are all PP (except the little "normal" buttons) and they also do twine, crochet doilies and lots of other yummy stuff;


Close up of some of the stamping behind the pp's to give a little depth :) ;


Thank you for popping by and why not give the Purple Pumkin sketch and the Ditzy-Craftymess challenge a go? You could win some great prizes x
