I was happy to spend the afternoon getting a layout done when I got home from work yesterday, the housework could wait, I was over cleaning ! scrapping much better thing to do :)
The moodboard at Dusty Attic this month really appealed to me and seeing I still have a little Dusty Attic chipboard left that the lovely Lizzy gave me, I thought I would like to join in with the challenge.
The Mood board
The night before I captured a photo of my Grand daughter with her arms around her Mum's neck, we had been out to dinner to celebrate Belinda's birthday and I thought it also suited the lovely quote.
Write in your heart that everyday is the best day of the Year
Last year Belinda's birthday was much different, she was as bald as a badger and extremely tired from the chemo treatment. As a family we have always celebrated events together , but now we enjoy them even more, we seem to laugh even more and just appreciate the moments of being together.
I used Orange embossing powder on the Dusty Attic Chippy. I also stamped a image and then decided to add blue embossing powder over the image and then stamp with black again on top of that.
We were talking about dragon flies the night I took the photo so I added the dragon fly ribbon from CraftQueen, the little orange and white flower trim was from my Mum's craft bits and pieces ( always got to have a bit of Mum on my layouts )
My Penfriend sent me the stamp sentiment and I thought it is so true.
The weekend is nearly over :( they go so fast !
Hope the coming week is a good one for you.
Love, Peace and Kindness
