Changing the subject

I thought I would take a break from typing up details of this week today and just share some layouts that I have somehow managed to get done while Nan has been laying down each day. Scrapping helps keep me sane, it also helps keep my hands from becoming completely useless claws lol. I will freely admit that I wouldn't normally scrap like this, I don't really like to stop and start when it comes to layouts but I will take whatever I can get right now, even if that is 5 minutes here and 10 minutes there lol.

The first one was created for the Treat Of The Month Challenge at Sweet Shoppe Designs. This month's treat is Ranie O'Dell known in the forums as Juliet.Credits: Layered template (Inspired by Juliet, Template 5) by Bree Clarkson, iCandy by Traci Reed and Label Marker Dates by Shawna Clingerman. Font is DJB Nicole by Darcy Baldwin.

Journalling reads: This little herb planting kit started off as a pot and a handful of different seeds.You added a little soil, a little water and some patience. After that all you had left to do was enjoy the time spent with Nana.
