Well we had a fabby time at 'Leeds Castle' H and his friends did brass rubbing, played on the adventure playground and then when they were inside the Castle there were child friendly information sheets and I-Spy sheets too - we spent 6 hours there and still didn't see all of it. Alan is feeling better, he's been told he has an infection and a slight tear on his spleen (the doctors think from the car accident he had).
Congratulations Captain Scott Coakley - Scott is my friends Mel and Geoff's son, who live in Australia and we found out a couple of weeks ago - Scott had been made a Captain by Virgin Blue Airlines, and we are all so proud of him - hence a card with a plane on it !!. The papers are Echo Park - 'Little Boy', sentiment - 'LOTV', distressed with Tim Holtz - 'Faded Jeans'.

How cute!! The paper is the perfect match for the sweet image, and I love the way you used the twine!
Such a cute card Sam I love the backing papers. Hope your well Hun. Xx
Hi Sam
Great card!!
Your backing papers match perfectly with that fabby image.
Yes, you were right .. .. our York trip did include the Food/Drink Festival but £4.50 for a mini glass of champagne is a bit out of my league .. .. especially when we would have needed two glasses (that is a new Penny Black stamp that would last much longer LOL!!!).
Hope all is good with you.
Love Jules xx
