I couldn't stop

I was trying to stay up and wait for Daniel to come home last night and here's what I came up with while I was waiting....

this one was a challenge to use: felt, at least 5 buttons, ribbon and stitching BUT you had to only use 30% of the page and leave 70% negative space....hhhmmm don't think mine quite equals that but I love the layout so it doesn't matter.

this is a photo I had originally scrapped using a black magic sketch a few months ago...I never liked the layout so last night I pulled it apart and re-did it. I love it now, especially those trees!

this layout is the perfect way for me to describe how I feel about Abbey. It's so true - I would rather look at her than any other view~!

I am loving the lady bug cut on the walk in my garden cartridge at the moment - I want to put those little fellas on everything I do...might be a trademark of mine!? I am trying to really step outside of my comfort zone with my scrapping and do things that I would normally shy away from, like hand cutting and mixing alphas and I really love the results I'm getting.

I received my latest order from Anna's craft cupboard this afternoon - WOW, so many thickers, flowers, chipboard characters (owls, birds etc) and the cutest little birdie stamp I've ever seen....now hhmmm can I wait for Daniel to return to work on Wednesday afternoon, I don't want to wait, I want to create!! (oh, is there a scrap title in that sentence?)

Until next time,
Shell xx
