a touch of spring.

It is nice to see so many blog challenge entries coming in. This one has certainly put a spring in our step (ha ha ha)


First up is one by Marika who took the photo the same day she did the page! This big photo thing is all the rage and i think it looks fantastic. The little cluster of embellishments down the bottom are excellent and balance it all our very nicely. The canola is looking beautifully yellow at the moment so it is great to see it included here.




Secondly Sandra has gone all minimilist on us!! She says -

found a layout by Leanne Stamatellos.. and loved it.. (love her work!)
Its in Scrapbook Creations No.37 (vol5 no10) called As long as the Sky.
See you all on Friday ... sounds like a great night!





I dont blame you for wanting to lift Leannes work. It is stunning in it's simplicity and always looks classy. Your page is beautiful too Sandra...the strips of paper and the simple statement for a title. Very very eyecatching!


Thanks girls they are really inspirational!
