Sleepy head and scraggy head

This week was meant to be a 'me' week, well for three days of it anyway, but somehow it just never happens for me. I'm not moaning though, just sort of tittering away to myself, as I know it will always be this way. One of the lovely things that happened today though, was my best friend of 37 years popped in to see me with her Dad who emigrated to Australia all those years ago and they were reunited on Monday after almost 37 years. They had not seen one another for all of that time and now he has come back to live with her and her family. Can you even imagine how that must feel? It was lovely to see him and catch up after all those years........

The above layout was created on a plain piece of 'cotton' card. I added subtle colour to random parts of the background, stamped a bit of text, a fancy border and a couple of words, cut a few bits of basic grey paper and left it at that. It didn't take long, and I was pleased it didn't, as when I put it in my album I relised I had scrapped the photo already......what a waste of time lol.

Anyway, this was Cinders looking scruffy and bedragled before her session at the grooming parlour of our local college. I had waited for over 4 months to get her in.
Aw and just look at her when I got her back. She looked a completely different dog. I was so pleased with what they had done for her and at just £17, what a bargain eh?
Well that's it again, not a lot goin on in the crafting scene, there's always something else to do lately.
