"Thank You Very Much"

Its time for a new challenge over at 'If You Give A Crafter A Cookie' & today I'm sharing with yo9u a fab image from our sponsor 'Imagine That' As soon as I saw this fortnights cookie & who was one of our sponsors, I just knew I had to have this image to play with.
I was brought up listening to Elvis & Tom Jones. I don't really remember when Elvis died, I just know both my Mom & Dad were upset. Around that time I used to sit & watch all the Elvis movies with my Dad (Viva Las Vegas is still my favourite) I kind of remember saying to my Dad (after we had watched Love Me Tender) I wanted to do something for Elvis....my Mom suggested I sent him my dummy (pacifier) ....so that's what I did, I sent Elvis my dummy when I was 3
So yeah Elvis has a special place in my heart & always will do xx
