fairytales...

Late last year my best friend's daughter was very very sick in intensive care, she spent three weeks in hospital ...pulling through I know because of her inner strength. This beautiful peaceful photo was taken by her dad one day while she was sleeping. When Kate came home just before Christmas I made this layout for my friend which I framed and gave it to her for Christmas.
The sweet happy colours and patterns of Bella Blvd's Spring line was just perfect for my layout, another project from my GDT spot for Bella Blvd this month.

You are my idol Kim - your work is just fabulous and this is sooo special. I too have some very special children I scrap for - my grandson who was born with a major heart defect but who has been so lucky to have one operation and be ok and my sister's g-son, who we have had to go through so many surgeries and procedures praying he will survive. Beautiful work my friend! Hugs to your friend and so glad their little one made it through this!

At present, if you want the most reliable mobile internet connection, 3G is the best option. But, you should stay up to date with the roll out of 4G, as when this is available it will give a much faster service. Carrier Ethernet
