Stuck?! And Handmade Halo

Yay! I did it.... I used all 4 sketches at Stuck?! this month....

Such a cute layout... Look closely at some of the embellishments I've used....
From Handmade Halo - there is - Jute flower, purple ribbon flower (Corinne is such a wizz at making handmade flowers and I'm gonna keep getting hers because it is WAY easier than having to make them myself...!!!), plus also the Brass bird charm (yum!), flower wooden button and that cute little love heart glass pebble.
AND from A Lil' something - banner at the bottom, the cream fabric button and the butterfly.

Here's a close up...

Well I had fun last night using my new goodies - thanks for looking!

Beyond the Door

Yummy lime greens and white this month at Beyond the Door.

I couldn't find a B&W photo (one of the criteria) but I did use some fabric!

Always happy to play along!

GET PICKY

Loved this sketch today, such fun - I've just had some surgery - (nothing life-threatening!) and today was the first day I've gotten out of bed to do something - and I really enjoyed this sketch from GET PICKY!

Here's my page!

Can you see those BEAUTIFUL bits from Charms Creations - the green page runner and lollipop.  Just love the colours and the way this one turned out!

Anyway - back to bed I go - a few more days of rest yet!
