Hope you are able to enjoy the lovely sunshine today.
Well two awesome challenge sites Once Upon a Sketch and CSI colour inspirations have joined forces this month to give us four challenges!
The first is to use these colours and elements
combined with the sketch
At first I wasn't to sure about the colours, but then I received my Teresa Collins "Vintage" papers that I had ordered in the post and they worked perfectly :)
The evidence I have used a curved shape , misting, fibre ~ the Doily, I have a leaf on the page, tone on tone.
The Testimony I have written a letter to my Grandmother which is in the little envelope tucked in the side.
The journalling says
Dear Ma,
When I was a little girl and you were very old you lived with us. It is a shame that my memory of you is that you had a grumpy disposition, you used to poke me with your walking stick! I do have a memory of being at your home "The Glen" and skipping down happily to the mail box. I had a hat on with knitted tassels at the back and I was pretending I had a pony tail and it was swishing to and fro, then a magpie swooped and pecked me on the head, lucky my ponytail hat protected me some what
Love Dolly xxx
and here is my layout
and some closies ~ the little envelope with my letter inside
Thank you for calling by, please let me know you were here
Love and Sunshine
