Never too old for a hug

The theme today at As You Like It Challenge is to use your favourite papers.  Well, this one was an easy challenge for me.  If you come here often, you'll know that for many months, my favourite papers have been the Papermania Lucy Cromwell pad.  

Each page of this set is in one of my favourite colours; pink, aqua or purple, and most are either glittered or double sided.  

And you know how, in most paper pads, there are always a couple of designs that you like less than the others ??  .... well in this set, I love them all.  

I've loved this pad so much that I've bought 2 of the 6" size, and then treated myself to a 12" pad recently too (to keep in reserve)!

I've used the pink and aqua a lot recently, so today's choice is purple (for a change!).

Our sponsor this week is the shop where my lovely friend Samantha works, Penrith Crafts.  So if you're in Cumbria, make sure you pop in and see her!!
