Embellished Idol has begun!!

Hiya folks!!
Well Embellished Idol 2008 has officially started. I entered 2 years ago and decided to give it a go again this year. I'm looking forward to getting out of my scrap rut and trying some different ideas. The first challenge was a sketch challenge using at least 10 photos and here is my take on it...For bonus points you had to make a young boy's birthday card and here's mine... Cards aren't something I normally do but I thought for 2 bonus points I may as well hey!?
Havn't really been up to much else.
We got our new dining chairs last week.I'm really really happy with them. They're very comfy!! and I think they look so hot!! I keep telling everyone I feel like such a grown up now having matching furniture in the lounge/dining. It all looks really nice.
Jack and I have been doing a bit of gardening in the afternoons lately. Just a general tidy up and Jack has been planting seeds off one of our neighbours plants that hangs over the fence. He's been having a great time. We're planning on having a bit of a garden re-organise when we can afford it (which will probably be in about 2015). The boys having a snuggle on the lounge with Kitti-Mae.And some photos from our walk with Grandma this week.
I got a note from my beautiful friend Tricia to say here little boy Ollie has pneumonia. Poor little guy. I'm going to drop around some DVD's for him sometime today. I hope you feel better soon Ol.
That's about it. Dont' forgot to head over to Embellished at the end of the week and vote for me!!
Cheers
