CHALLENGE YOURSELF ~ LET YOUR SMILE CHANGE THE WORLD

Good morning and a happy weekend to you all!
Today I would like to share my layout for Challenge Yourself, where anything goes as long as you are in the layout.

LET YOUR SMILE CHANGE THE WORLD


This was taken when I was having a mini holiday with my daughter. Every now and then we would get together and spend a few days together just doing nice things. This day we were at Bondi Beach for Sculptures by the sea. I sat on the chair for a photo because I have the worst memory ever, so it was a bit of a joke.


Lots of paints, mists, texture paste and embossing powder. A little stamping and threads.



I used the negative of a alphabet die , no such things as scraps. The pebble is from Georgia Hearld .
Thank you for calling by, I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment.
Love , Peace and Happiness

This is really lovely. Those small touches of black and yellow really add a little something extra.
