Happy Saturday! Boy have thing been busy around here this past week. At the last minute...and I mean LAST minute, Steven flew to Dubai for 3 1/2 months for a few job opportunities. It was all systems go from Friday to Wednesday to get him ready or should I say for me to wash, dry and iron his clothes lol. I didn't have much time to think about missing him or get too upset ...guess he wasn't too upset for long either lol.....
He's staying with a friend of ours so I made her a card to thank her...

I've used Rose from the Killer Heel collection coloring it with my Copics

I loved the way Pam added glitter to the bag but didn't want to copy exactly so used very fine silver glitter instead of clear. At first I wasn't too sure about it...thought I'd ruined it but after a couple of days decided it looked pretty cool. I added Glossy Accents to the roses...you can just about see it on the top right rose.

Nicole and Ben were over the other night for dinner. We were talking all things baby (have I told you I'm going to be a grandma lol???) and the subject of what to bring baby McLeod home in came up. I told Nic I had brought her and her brother's home in the same outfit...one bought for Nic by my grandpa. She asked to see it so I went into the attic, found it and a few other things including each of Nicole, Ryan and Steven's first shoes!! Have a look.....

LOLOLOLOL...look at the different in size!! Can you guess whose are whose? In case you can't, Nicole's are on the far left, Ryan's are in the middle and Steven's on the right. With the scuffed toes of Ryan's I guess it was obvious he was going to play football and by the size of Steven's (baby size 5) that he would grow tall...and he did....to 6' 6 1/4" !!!!!! We all had a good giggle at the difference.
Hope you have a great weekend
Catch ya later x

Love the card, those sure are killer heels LOl.
Steven I'm sure, will love his experience of a different culture.
As for the shoes, how wonderful to have kept them, I didn't think of keeping the shoes, amongst everything I did keep.
I hope he has a successful trip Kerry. My baby is off to the states soon but only for 10 days! I loved seeing those baby shoes lined up, time flies doesn't it and here you are nearly a grandma...not sure if you have told me that yet?! Your card is very sparkly and lush, great colors. It's been pouring here all weekend, yuk! Take care GF and speak soon xxxxxxxxxx

Kerry, what a lovely card you have made. Look at the height of those shoes - I'd certainly not be allowed any as the first place I'd be going is A&E!!!
