I want cake

These photos still make me smile when I look at them, as it reminds me how good Steven can be with his PECS, when he wants to be.

They were taken on Clive Birthday a couple of years back and as no sooner than Clive had blown out the candle of his Birthday cake, Steven was heading over to his PECS folder, and finding the symbols 'I want cake' and was handing the strip to me before you could say 'Who wants cake?'...

The paper is from Carolees creation's 'Happy Birthday to you', the writing is from the 'slobbery kiss' decorative strip, the rosettes are using papermania 'colossal' paper and the Tim Holtz ' mini paper Rosettes' decorative strip...

The arrows are from the sizzix 'arrow #2' and cuttlebug arrows and lastly the journalling was done using the papermania 'colossal' paper that was used for the rosettes and using the 'journal, circle' decorative strip

Which had the date stamped on the front and the journalling inside.
