Sarah's Cards October challenge

I have just scraped in with this one by a whisker as the deadline is today LOL!! 

The challenge from Sarah's Cards was this sketch


And I did this layout at my monthly crop at Cardinal Colours yesterday


Sorry for the appalling picture quality - I should have taken a photo yesterday at the crop but I forgot my camera.  Today the light conditions are awful so this was the best that I managed to take.  The photograph is of my niece Chloe in her christening gown (it is a beautiful hand knitted item made by my mum - I can remember her knitting it and how intricate the pattern was so it was a real labour of love to produce).  I am gradually getting a layout down of each of my nieces and nephews christening photos - I've done three so far so only six left to do.  I have their christening photographs all framed and going up the wall of our stairwell - we jokingly refer to them all as rogues gallery!!  I dipped into my vast Basic Grey collection and used some Lilly Kate for this one.  The flowers are punched using two EK Success flower punches and the ferns were punched using a Leonne Em fern punch.
