You Make Me Happy When Skies Are Grey...

Morning all!

I've been so super busy with creating and starting new projects this last few weeks i've super neglected my blog so i thought i'd pop by with a layout that i'm pretty chuffed with that i've created over the last couple of days!
I've followed the super sketch from Sarah's Cards this month! and i must say i really do like this sketch and will be using it again! The only thing i really changed was the 4 parts coming down from the top right, i used hearts to form a shower but i love how it turned out!

The photo is actually one that was took on wednesday (my birthday) i've lost 34lb in six week's on my diet still a long way to go but i'm feeling great i figued me and hubs don't have many pics of us so it was about time to stop being so camera shy and snap some and this one was my favourite! 

Here's my layout! 


I'd like to say a hugggge thankies to my friend Mel, for telling me how to take photo's of layouts properly and i think i've got the hang?!?

*C/Stock - Core'dinations - Great White
*Punches - Martha Stewart Border Heart punch to get the diddy hearts!
