LOVE ~ SKETCHY BOARDS CHALLENGE

Hello,
Sharing a couple of layouts with you today.
The first is for the challenge at Sketchy Boards
and this is the inspiration 



and this is my take on the challenge


Love


I have had this PP for ages, I really like it , but it is so busy I didn't know how I was going to use it. So I decided to get it out and just use it. It seems to have a vintage feel to me, so that is what I went with.
The photo is  my Mother in-law and Father in -law. I love it as they are so young . Sadly I never knew my husbands Mum as she passed away quite young. From everything I have been told she was a beautiful lady.
My Second layout I wish to share is my two beautiful Grandchildren on my Granddaughters 18th Birthday, Yikes I feel old !
My Sunshine


This layout is for a challenge at Soul Scrappers that required torn paper, hearts and rounded corners.

Thank you for calling by and I hope you have a chance to be creative over the weekend. We have gone from being so hot, to Autumn well and truly arriving today. It has rained today which is fabulous, but gosh the temperature has dropped, I have ugg boots on !

Love, Peace and Kindness

Oh we have had a day up over 35 degrees.. where is our autumn?? at the moment a storm is coming, the wind is picking up.. I am not surprised after the hot day we had!!! You have been busy creating!! Your layouts are wonderful.. just love the precious photos in both.. and the papers look great .. I think we never know what a layout is going to look like until we put it together.. and there is always 100 ways we could scrap the layout anyway.. the colors in the first layout back ground paper are so pretty.. and yes I reckon they look vintagey.. and before I forget....thanks so much for your wonderful layout for Sketchy Boards this month!!

You did a fabulous job working with the floral paper....love how you picked out tones in it for the embellies. And strangely, it's not too strong at all! The b & w photo is a good idea, I reckon.....& the 2nd page is too darn cute with your grandies..... & I really love how you use shabby edges and ripped bits. Looks wonderful :)
