I did a page for Once Upon a Sketch with the theme being guilty pleasures. I don't know if it's bad or not but I don't actually feel guilty for my many pleasures. One of the pleasures I do have is doing the bedtime routine with my 2 youngest. It's after dinner and it's very nice to escape the busy kitchen and family room and sit quietly with them for a story, singing and prayer. My husband and I take turns because we both enjoy it and don't enjoy doing the homework and cleaning up duties. I hope the girls like it as much as we do, otherwise it feels a bit bad doing it for ourselves. LOL.
The background paper is an old one from Basic Grey. I loved the way it lent to writing and illustration. I placed my photo on 2 large matt paper to make it stand out from the busy background. For my embellishments I have used my new flourish die-cut, prima flowers and some mix and match paper flowers.
My computer journalling and a butterfly from a Kaiser craft diecut set.
We are enjoying some warm winter sun and the brightness it brings. Unfortunately it brings less scrapping time as I'm enjoying the outdoors but I should be back soon with another page. Till then, happy scrapping.
