Was having a slothful day, managed to force myself to have lie in, ooh till 8.45 a.m., yep, big deal! Had lots of housework stuff to do in the morning, but was determined to do some scrapbooking in the afternoon.
I settled down at 2pm, got out all my stuff, including the DCWV kit i got a couple of years ago from QVC. So flicked thru all the papers, to see which grabbed me. Was trying to avoid circles, but ended up using them. I'd chosen a peachy orange piece of cardstock as my base, as I mooched amongst the papers I came across the two remnants of pink and green, then grabbed a spotted paper, and cut two rows of spots. Had no idea how it was all going to marry up, kept on messing till I was happy with layout. Also stamped on this layout, the wording beside the photo, used up some flowers as well. Quite pleased with it.
Started out with a full and large circle of the square paper, found some scraps of pink and green, cut out two strips from the spotted paper, cut a circle frame from some pink card. And then cut another thin circle from the squares paper, to add interest to the pink circle, added Happy Birthday, and arranged the papers.
Have to laugh, camera let me down at wedding, but since then it has worked wonderfully, can inanimate objects pick up on your mood? Mine at the said wedding was: want to be anywhere but here.
Snow is thawing, at last..... is it over, I somehow doubt it, there is a sting in the tail I am sure. Just stay safe and warm, keep on crafting.
