Do YOU Dare?

I had a go at last Fridays Cardmaking Dare and spotted a mid-week dare that immediatly inspired me...for once I knew exactly what I would use.
As much as it annoys Hubs I cant throw anything away! I save everything and anything just in case!
One of my lovely Christmas gifts was this Country Living basket
which contains all the goodies I needed to make my guys steaming hot mugs of yummy marshmallow topped drinking chocolate...shame I cant indulge..but hey ho...I adore the fabric which trims the basket....and better still the design was printed onto the cardboard packaging in which this wonderful gift arrived. I stashed it for a rainy day and boy did it rain yesterday!



2007 is the year I have decided to make a proper go of compiling my Book of Me. Whilst lurking on UKS I spied Roz's BOM prompt which was to create a layout using 4 PP's and the word you had to feature in the title...gold was also to be used but I dont do gold!

Hubs and I play these silly games where we sit and ask each other the craziest of questions about each other....9/10 we are always spot on with our choice of answer :)
I suppose after 18 years together we should know each other pretty well.
Inspired by our games I put this layout together using Bam Pop papers....which I love, love, love :)
