LIM Challenge - Week 24 - Circles

Good Morning LIMettes. Not a very nice morning here a little damp after the last few days of gorgeous sunshine. Our neighbour this week has bought a baby goose. I asked if it was for "Christmas Dinner" and was told very firmly NO it was a guard goose who was going to patrol the permiter of their newly acquited land. He is very sweet but cries a lot. She has had him following her and her husband Bruno up the garden and even comes when called. I think I will get to know him quickly as apparently they can be a bit vicious when guarding.
My effort today is a joint one with Di (my sister) here on her hols. I thought of the theme and cut all the pieces out and she was in charge of the glue pot, plus her writing "today". I used two "grass" sizzix dies layered on top of one another to give a little depth, three quickuts footballs and the No 3 is Sizzix Numbers "Lollipop". Hope if mets with your approval.
