Good morning all...here we are the 1st of September...this is the last day of my holidays and its back to work tomorrow! I've had such a fab fortnight and it's been great to spend so much time with James & Sophie...I'll kind of miss them next week when we are back in the school/work routine but at least we have had fun together over the last two weeks!

We have another new challenge for you today over at The Creative Cottage...our challenge for the next fortnight is CELEBRATIONS and if you need any inspiration from the DT girls they have made some fabulous cards!

Donna, the star really stands out in the background - love the layering! You have the best collection of papers; perfectly coordinated. Love the brads - and you can't miss that cute little monkey! Good that you had great time with your little ones while on holiday - it's always hard to go back, huh? Take care.
