Layout Update

its been a few days ince Ruby left us ,

and although i said i was going to get straight back into it ,

it sort of didnt happen...

sleep happened ,family life,back to work,

workouts with Laurie and 2 sessions of zumba .

i still have 2 canvases and a layout to photograph

but here are 6 layouts to share .

ive been lucky enough to have a few days off work

and with the kids on holidays .

it was a perfect time to invite miss ruby to come join us .

its not just me who is totally inspired by ruby ....her art...her spirit and character .

the kids also have such a super time together...

so it was 3 days of art,skating,photos and fun.....

*******************************
so who kids have created a picture plate before...

my kids do them every second yr or so....

and ive always wondered how far you could take the creative side

,without actually layering anything(cause there r a few restrictions )

but ill be interested to see how this plate comes out

i have actually created something this weekend..

and heres the proof :)

i love this photo of astrid and her friends ..fianlly after many yrs ..it made it to a page :)

and finally a share ....

been looking for the perfect dress for my shape

..and well i found it...:)

and i bought 2 dresses..

one red with cherries...the other just basic black

but i just didnt have the shoes ,

i finally found what i was looking for :)
my kids call the ABBY SHOES from ncis :)
