Pencillines & Get Picky

Hi :)

Just a quickie today, to show you the latest sketch over at Pencillines, designed by the very talented Sue Milde. Heres the sketch

Sketch 263

And heres my layout based on this sketch.


The photo is of my son, Sam, and his partner Sharnee, at their Debutante ball. They made a beauitful couple. Ive used 'Simple stories' papers (love them) and embellished with some stunning MANOR HOUSE CREATIONS flowers. Heres a couple of closeups :)



Next up, I had a little play along with the Get Picky sketch this week. Heres my layout I made, using some older Kaisercraft papers. These photos are of my adorable GS Deklan.( yep, I know, I look to young right!!!   LOL, im hoping you will say that anyway he he )




Well, Im off to the vets now. My little doggie, Molly, has a nasty grass seed in her ear (again) She is a little Cavaleir king charles spaniel, who has a bit of 'little man' syndrome, and thinks she is a farm dog lol. She runs after my husbands ute everyday when he goes to work, so he usually ends up picking her up, and taking her to work with him. We own a farm, so she spends her days running round the paddocks, or helping with the sheep. And, theres alot of grass seeds in the paddocks this time of year, and they are so nasty.We had her at the vets last year for the same reason. Im afraid, she will just have to stay home from now on, till the grass seeds are all gone. 
Have a wonderful day my friends, thatks so much for calling in xx 

ADDIT: The visit to the vet went OK. Poor little Molly did indeed have grass seeds in her ears, and one of them had perforated the ear drum :(  She is on antibiotics, and should make a full recovery.

    I really love your LO, especially the little bird on the cage, he is gorgeous. I love living in the city, but your story about Molly made me miss living in the country just a little bit. I hope she feels better.

    Karen the page of Deklan is really gorgeous, I especially love the circles and the flower. Did you make the flower and if so can you give a quick class on your blog? Sorry if that's a bit cheeky.
