I seem to be revisiting Tuscany at the moment, the most beautiful place .
I wanted to recreate the outside of the building for my background pp & I was really happy how it turned out ,I was happy the texture & colour . And whilst laying in bed I remembered I had just the perfect colour lace from Craftqueen http://www.craftqueen.com.au/ , the same colour as the shutters ~ Bonus! and then when I was carrying a 6inch pad out to the kitchen the tag I have stuck the Tuscany stickers on fell out onto the floor, same colour as the shutters again! Yay happy days
I soaked the canvas in coffee to get the colour I wanted
Stamped on a tea bag ( got this idea from Pinterest) I dried the teabag out then opened carefully and removed the tea

Don't forget to pop over and join in Orange paperies Challenge this month http://orangepaperieandco.blogspot.com.au/
and yesterday being Valentines Day the Photo A Day prompt was " What is Love " funny that.
Anyway for me Love is a Million little and big things that are felt in the heart
My eldest son now 34 made this for me when he was in infants school, yep I keep all the bits and pieces they made at school. I thought of this heart while laying in bed also, funny when you are not well and in bed what you think of
Take Care
and have a wonderful weekend
filled with smiles and friendship
