New Prima

Hi there my blogging friends,
Ive been playing along with 'Once upon a....sketch', and 'Bird is the word today. I was lucky enough to get the stunning new 'Printery' collection from Prima for my DT kit from 'the imagination factory' this week, and OMGoodness, it is an amazing collection. The bird word for this challenge is 'memory', Ive used 'memories'. And the 'once upon a ...sketch criteria is to use a date as your title, and journal the importaance of this date. My layout is titled '2011', and this is photo of my DD, taken last week at her 21st birthday party. I still cant believe that she is 21, where did that time go?? It seems like just yesturday that she was a baby in my arms :(

Heres the OUAS sketch........

And here is my layout


Ive flipped the sketch over, but basically followed the sketch pretty closely :) I will have to call in later with the closeups, because Im having trouble with my 'photoshop' programme, and I dont have a clue how to fix it, grrr !!!

Thanks so much for calling in, and I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend x
