DAFFODIL DELIGHT ~ WHITE WITH ONE CHALLENGE

Morning ! on this brisk Saturday. Hard to believe we had a couple of days of quite hot weather to flakes of snow this week, yep , only in Orange!
Luckily the weather was nice while Lizzy was here . I was amazed how lightly Lizzy packed but still managed to have everything she needed to do a couple of layouts and several cards ( I could take some lessons from this woman!)
Anyway one of the layouts we did together was for WW1 challenge, which is White with yellow this month. Wait till you see Lizzy's layout it is gorgeous!
I decided to scrap a photo of my Grandson sitting in a field of daffodils . My Middle son who is a photographer for Orange City Life needed the photo for the cover. Jedd was not impressed and apparently My eldest son ( his Dad) had to act a little crazy to get Jedd to smile. It's a boy thing I guess.



 The gorgeous flair button is from StudioFourteen40 and the Good Stuff  and chevron arrows is a Amy Tangerine stamp ~ a pressie from Lizzy :) as is the little stars and Smile Often sentiment. Wash tape , tiny twine and yellow rosettes are from Craftqueen . You make me Happy stamp is a kaiser stamp from Marally Craft


I would like to thank Lizzy for the inspiration of the title and journalling.
I have journalled on a tag tucked in the side which says ~
"Daffodil Delight (not) Jedd didn't think it was delightful at all. But he was a good boy and helped his uncle Christopher out who needed a cover for Daffodil Day for Orange City Life. 23rd August 2012 


Thanks so much for popping by . I really appreciate your comments.
I will leave you with a photo of our scrapping day with Lizzy ( which I have borrowed from her site) Hope you don't mind Lizzy



I have my scrapbooking class today, so I had better go get organised
Wishing you a day filled with Sunshine
