Celestial Laura

Celestial adj: belonging or relating to heaven or supremely good.

She’s both. (She is Celestial Willow on UKS-fact fans)

She is the next Dr Who’s assistant or at least she should be – geeky sci-fi nerd that she is (and rightly proud of it).

Instead of doing that she has decided to marry the very lovely John and have the most gorgeous baby.

Dr Who’s loss.

The tea cakes were celestially good as well. This is Laura at the retreat in March when she was still cooking up the lovely Adam. I cannot quite fathom that he is 6 months old now and I haven’t been able to get to them for a cuddle with him. Trust me when I say that he is adorable.

So here is the layout. I had to go with colours from that lovely top and so that means some pretty papers.

 I used BG Sweet Threads. In the class we have been looking at pretty paper, what we like and how do we use it. This range of papers have been so good to me.

I love Basic Grey, they were one of my favourites and although I have ventured off into other ranges…I found this recently.

I ordered Sweet Threads thinking they were going to be one thing, they arrived and they weren’t and to be honest I wasn’t overwhelmed (you know like sometimes you can get when the pizza box arrives ).

It has been the most oft used though, 6 layouts so far. There were only 2 pages that I really had a problem cutting up, the rest were a breeze. That got me to thinking about the difference between pretty paper and useful paper. I do tend to buy a collection of useful and then a collection of pretty.

Anyway, I digress. Back to the Celestial Laura. I am so happy and proud to call her my friend
