'It Tickles' Mummy!!

On Good Friday while the boys (all 3 of them) where out washing and detailing the car, getting it ready to go away, I stayed inside and scrapped!!!! Naughty aren't I!!!!

Couldn't help but fall in love with this sketch from Once Upon a Sketch. Once Upon a Sketch is a relatively new challenge blog, with 2 challenges each month focusing on the journalling! I don't mind adding journalling to my pages, in fact I love it as most of the time I scrap photos of the everyday moments of my two little boys, which always have a story about them.

Anyway here is the gorgeous sketch! Just swapped from left to right...if you get my drift.


It Tickles - Riley playing around with his cousins little dog. This boy has such a bond with animals...must get that from his daddy I reckon!! I love this moment when they were both staring at each other and then all of a sudden Lucky (the dog) starting licking him...he thought it was hilarious and it TICKLED!!!


Journalling.....


Some masking and misting....mmmmm...love my orange Tiger Lilly mist!! And my most fav butterfly at the moment brought out by Pink Paislee...gorgeous 3D little butterflies!!


A big thank you to all you lovely girls who stop by and leave gorgeous messages...it really uplifts me.  DH is on days off from tomorrow till Monday so I am hoping to have sometime to get back to all of you :))))

Take care
xx
