And again!!!

Yep, I managed to squeeze out another LO, so have finished just in time to enter it for Ant's January Monthly Challenge @ SBT50. The criteria for her '2011' challenge were 2 - patterned papers; 0 - a circle; 1 - photo; 1 - word title. Here's what I came up with (in keeping with my resolution to journal more, its pretty "journalling laden")...


Here's a close-up of the journalling...


It's been a while since I used a die cut background like this, so it was nice to dust off this cute one from My Little Shoebox. I paired it with a scrap of MLS pp; journal tag from My Minds Eye; Green Tara mini flowers'Sunny - banana' glitter foam Thickers and 4mm 'Sunflower' pearls. (I seriously love these pearls from Handmade By Suzanne - at only $1.80 for 100, they are SUCH good value!) I also used my own hand-dyed recycled doiley and an assortment of flowers I got from My2Angels. My fave embellie on this LO though, is the cute bottletop I bought from Vicki at the Scrapbooking Top 50 Crafters Market. (Pop in this Friday, 4th February for a chance to purchase some awesome handmade embellies for yourself!)

That is the cutest story and look at that face. Just gorgeous. The die cut looks fab with your design and that bottle top is so so cute.
