| My finished LO. I have gone with Maroon, being close to my favourite colour. I have sponged ink in the background with a doily mask. I have ripped my papers and layered them to form my background for my photo. |
 |
| I have a new printer! Yay, I can computer journal again. I was playing around on my computer and came across this cool journalling block. I have focused on the 4 closest things to my heart for my journalling. The love heart stamp is from Stampin Up set Gentler Times stamped in Cranberry Crisp, with some rhinestones added. |
 |
| My hat and gloves. I made gloves out of lace. So elegant. I have also handstitched the side of the LO and a rub on from American Craft as well. The stamp is from the set as the love heart. |
 |
| My handmade crochet flowers put together to form one flower. I'm really happy with the end result and hope you like it too. The school holidays are keeping me busy along with visitors so scrapbooking is not really happening lately, unfortunately. Hopefully it won't be too long between posts. |
