Direction of Dreams

Lately our little family has been contemplating what our plans are - what direction we are going to move towards. Are we happy where we are and with what we are doing? For me as I eluded to earlier I am going to dedicate time to myself to do what I love - be that scrapbooking, card making or photography to name a few and I want to share it here on my blog!

For both of us about 6.5 months ago our lives changed forever in the best way possible. It began before then but it was very very real by that point! Elijah was born healthy at the end of October last year. This beautiful little man melts everyones hearts and continues to everyday. Naturally with 2 snap happy parents we would have 1000's of photos wouldn't we? The answer to that is we do now but that first few weeks not really we were far too busy staring in wonder and smiling at our little man. Here is one for you - this was when he was 2 weeks old.

Apart from adding to my ever growing list of pages I want to create and of course looking at a whole new range of crafty items suitable for boys this little man makes you reconsider your dreams because now you find yourself focusing on what dreams you also want for him!

This beautiful card above would have to be one of my favourites I have made, yes it took some time with punching and sticking each heart down one at a time but I think it was very much worth it in the end! The words of course I love and one of the reasons I purchased the stamp set (StampinUp) in the first place many years ago. The patterned paper is new - I know shock horror...it is Memory Box Brioche. The inside of the card also has a strip of it.
