"happiness has nothing to do with what we have and everything to do with how we think"


and if someone knows how to slow down time, now is the time to do it!!! May already, that's like a whole third of the year gone already - where did it go and what have I done!!! not enough by the feels of it, but gee I seem to be busy - LOL.


so here are some LO's to share - the "flowers" LO is for my BOM over at SnB - it's a challenge to do a LO about flowers - either ones you get as gifts, or ones you grow, or just your favourites!!! My favourite "flowers" are those picked by these small hands - he always does it and it's always so cute!!! Used lots of the new Blue Hill Crate papers, chipboard buttons, rubons and Fancy Pants Rubons and bling - all of which are available at SnB.

The proud LO I completed for the CC over at Bons - had to use black cardstock as a base and 2 pp and bling, I've also added the flowers, and flourish stamp and bits. The journalling is about how we are so proud of how far Jess has come in the last few months - she's always had expressive/receptive language problems and also reading/writing problems, but with lots of hard work and determination she is now part of the Year 3 spelling class instead of the "happy" face class - she is so proud of herself and so are we. The sky is the limit now (well that's what I keep telling myself anyway).

Hope everyone has a great week and thanks for stopping by.

I'd love to know how to slow time down too Jane - it is hard to beleive that we are more than a third of the way through this year. The older you get the faster it flies. I love your layouts especially your "Proud" layouts. Just beautiful.

Great LO's Jane:) I particularly love your Proud LO...it's so important to celebrate what seems like a small achievement to others, but to your daughter (and your family) is such a big accomplishment. Well done!

Your layouts are always so full of emotions Jane, the journalling on your Proud layout is wonderful. Good on Jess.

I love the quote used on the flowers page, gorgoeus photo of DS.

Beautiful layouts Jane (as always) love the depth of field in the flower lo. Your Proud lo is beautiful and emotive. Well done to Jess all her hard work is paying off.

cheers
