Bird is The Word

Hello  :)  On the weekend I decided to do a challenge over at http://birdisthewordchallenge.blogspot.com/  The new word is HOPE and I have had this verse in my quote book for ages and thought it was perfect for the layout, however I noticed Nadia has used the same verse, so I hope you dont mind Nadia.
I think the verse is something we all wish for those we love. So here is my layout for the word Hope.


and some close ups


Bronze travel coin and eiffel tower from My2Angels. The Eiffel Tower was silver, so I painted it with Glimmer Glaze, heart pin from My2Angels also.  Denim Button from http://soupie75.blogspot.com/p/lovelybug-bits-n-bobs.html

More close ups


The Gorgeous handmade flower is from the lovely Jess Mackenzie http://thehappyscrappyplace.blogspot.com/

Thanks Jess I love it

Wishing you all a wonderful week. Thanks for popping by and dont forget to let me know you called by

Cheers

Hi Mary thanks so much for taking the time to visit my blog and leave me such lovely comments. On the LO 'cute white rabbit' I used the large yellow and white spotted button you made me -looks great hey? I have already used two other embellies on another LO but can't get the pics to print properly! I love looking through my little pack of awesomness xo Hope your life is settling down a little and things are going well with your mum. It is tough I know - my mum has cancer as well as my best friend and trying to cope with everyday things is difficult at times. I always look forward to seeing your LO's Mary - they are amazing. Take care love and hugs wendy. xo

Hi Mary sorry to hear that your mum is in a nursing home - must be a very hard decision to make. I sat with my dear mum yesterday and had a cuppa but she is now on oxygen and looking very tired. So hard to keep a stiff upper lip sometimes. Take care love wendy. xo

What a fun lo! Love all the little tidbits that you've added and those pics are so fun looking!

Hi Mary, just popping by to say I am thinking of you and hope all is well in your life. My friend Leonie is out of hospital and on antibiotics via a drip for 3 months and hopefully well enough for her next round of chemo on Tuesday. My mum is on oxygen now and getting really tired. Oh how I detest this insidious disease!! Hope you don't mind me sharing with you - somehow it helps to offload!! I am on school holidays so have even managed some scrapping time which has been lovely. Have a wonderful weekend. Love Wendy. xo
