Hi everyone, well I'm back for 3 days then we're off to Portsmouth again on Friday :) Charlie is thriving and having found his voice he gurgles and squeals and has us in fits of laughter!
The LIM challenge this week is PAPER PIECING and I have chosen a Darkroom Door stamp for my image.
The image is stamped in black Memento three times, once on the base card and then on brown Anna Griffin and flowered paper from my stash. I paper pieced the jacket and the basket of flowers. Also the stamp in the corner.
Thanks for taking the time to visit, I love to read your thoughts on my cards:)

Techniques seem to come around in phases and paper piecing seems to be popping up at the moment. I like what you've done with it for this LIM card. Have a good weekend with charlie.
Super card Valerie, it's a beauty of an image, love the chap's smile all warm and friendly :0) I can remember the gurgling stage it's a fabulous time, glad to see you're making the most of these precious moments:0) Have fun hugs Gay xxx
Super card, I so like the way you have rounded the corners of the sentiment topper as well as the main card. Lovely design.
Smashing card Val...lovely image. Charlie is at a lovely age now enjoy every minute of it

I love the pop of colour from the stamp in the corner and the layout of stamping and sentiment. Classy card!
Fabulous job with your paper piecing, Val. Such a lovely stamp, too. I love his tan jacket.
It's lovely that you're able to spend so much time with little Charlie. Such special times, too, when they're starting to develop their own little personality. Have a lovely time xx
Super card, the image looks great and the chap is quite dapper.

oh your LIM card is absolutely brilliant, val!!
Great card Val - like the fact you've chosen a male theme for the paper piecing. The two rounded corners are really effective.
Great card! Perfect balance between papers, ink and image.

PS No, I was never a hairdresser although I did a stint as a receptionist in one once - does that count?!
Super cooper Valerie , what a gorgeous card and your paper piecing is fabulous. Love the stamps you have used too just gorgeous. Glad to hear that Charlie is vocal, they are so funny when they start making their funny little noises.
