praying for peace for the poorly sleeping boy

My last page of the delicious Websters Pages paper and it is oh so pretty...so pretty in fact that I reserved it for BEN!!

He'd had a high temperature and was very poorly, I came home to find his Dad watching over him like an angel (ok like a protective father should be!). I couldn't resist taking a photo of him fast asleep on the lounge floor covered in his favourite blankie and my throw.



I got to use one of my Capodimote figurines........bingo!!


I cut, scalloped, crunched and spritzed the paper and mounted in onto distressed cardboard. And after all that I missed the SB.Com cardboard challenge deadline by one day!! That serves me right for not just getting on with it...I had it half made for weeks and finally realised that the photo need flipping so Bens face was next to the figurines. Talk about trying to figure it out huh!!


Love and the feeling of relief when a high temperature finally comes down!!
