Wow, where is the time going to? I can't believe its only 16 days until I go on my crafty week away! I booked it last October as soon as I got home from that one & boy times just flown!!!
Anyhoos on with today's post.
Over at The Perfect Sentiment we have a challenge that I just loved creating for, I just love sunflowers they make me think of my Nan. When I was a kid my nan lived about 70 miles away so I only saw her in the hols....so when it was time to plant the seeds I would help Nan plant them & through the school term Nan would look after them for me & measure them & phone or write a letter to tell me so I could keep my own grow chart at home! I still have a few of them in the loft!!
Anyhoos this weeks challenge is
AUTUMNAL BIRTHDAYS!
don't forget your sentiment on the front!
I decided to use an image I won a while ago & chose because of my Nan x
