Summer Fun

Another layout for the CC at Scrap Sanity http://scrapsanity.com.au/ This was the get Messy Challenge. So I played with Gesso, glimmer mist and inks. I wanted this to be a bright , happy layout to go with the silly photo of My DD and myself on the beach at Nelsons Bay last year.




It was a very dark, bleak, foggy day here today, so the colours are much more vibrant IRL . Thank you Miss Annette http://annetteedmonds.blogspot.com.au/ for the blue lace and doileys . Flowers are from My2Angels http://www.my2angels.net/ Yellow tulle and blue binding from Craftqueen, I have used Crafters Template from My2Angels  with gesso and Jenni Bowling paint dauber in Soap Powder from Scrap Sanity . I have doodled around the edge .
When I read the criteria to be Messy this layout that I did awhile ago came to mind




Our Middle Child is a bit of a gypsy and in between living overseas and different towns he lands back home  and he is VERY Messy. This is is his room, probably on a good day, as you can actually see the floor. I told him its bad when his young  nephew says "Christopher you need to clean your room !". I am pleased to say he has moved out  and is sharing a house with a friend, until his next adventure. And I have now turned his old room into my reading/guest room.
Hope you are staying high and dry where ever you are.
Cheers
