Baby goods

Hello ...

It's a wet and windy day here in Liverpool and I am hoping to get some craft time in today ... Yesterday evening we booked another trip to Majorca for the end of the month .. this time we will be taking my Brother and SIL ... they really need to get away and have some rest ... it has been a very hard year for them and there is no light at the end of the tunnel just yet ... I worry about them ... how can I not ... Life's troubles  have a way of forging deeper bonds between family ... so we hold hands as we ride the storms ... but one thing remains constant .. no matter how rough the waves are ... just below the surface there is always stillness and the trick is remembering to keep returning to the stillness ...

I have another frame to share and some cards ... 
When I made This frame ... I made a couple of CAS cards using the same papers 


Both images are digital from Meljen and the paper is from a digital kit that I've had for the longest time from The Shabby Princess (a freebie) 


Love the little bear with his blanket


 ... and this cute little donkey ...

And this is my other baby frame ...


This time I used papers from Websters Pages ... I apologise that the lighting is not so good 
This one is a little more vintage than the first one 


So what do you think?
Oh... and there's a little village growing in my home ...


Have a wonderful weekend and to my friends in the USA ... Happy your Labor Day weekend!

Thanks so much for stopping by

Good for you to book another trip to Majorca, it'll do you and your family good. Your baby series is super sweet, very delicate and it looks like you've found yourself some new books to make your gorgeous houses with. They look awesome positioned all together! Have a great evening, Ira x

Your baby things are sweet, Ros! Love what you did with the papers and images you used. I also love your village, are you decorating them for a specific season are just leaving them plain. I hope you and hubby and brother and sil enjoy your trip to Majorca. Seems like so many lives are affected by the times we are living in. We all have our struggles, but there is usually light out there somewhere, you are obviously their light! Have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

Ros you have so many wonderful items on the post, where do I begin? Super sweet baby cards you made! Love the soft pastel colors. The frame is so beautiful! This will be cherished indeed! The book homes are too cool! I keep saying I am going to do this but nothing yet. Seeing yours clusted on the mantel is beautiful! Love them! :-)

Your "village" is fabulous! Love it!

Your trip sounds wonderful. I would love to get away to someplace warm - one last time before the snow flies. Have fun thinking and planning your days!
