My Best Pal Mixed Media Layout - Fabscraps - C119

Morning Everyone

Today I am sharing a layout that was created a while back for FabScraps, using the very cute C119 Spilt Milk collection.

I was up on the FabScraps blog here also.

I created my own handmade flowers from FabScraps cardstock and just love how they turned out too.

I just love these photo's of my son and our dog Blossom, at the time.

He was about 7 and she was a few months old.
They played so rough, but loved each other so much!

Sadly she passed away at 18 months. It was tragic!
