I FEEL BETTER WHEN I'M DANCING ~ SCRAP IT WITH A SONG

Hello ! Well I have just returned from a  3 nights away with some lovely friends, scrapping in the mountains. 
Lizzy has documented our 3 nights perfectly, so if you wish, pop over to Lizzy's blog to see what we got up to :)

Last night I discovered Scrap it with a Song challenge for this month has a song "I feel better when I'm dancing " as one of the choices and seeing I have a Grand daughter who dances I knew I would like to join in the challenge. Scraping in by the skin of my teeth (odd saying)


I feel better when I'm dancing


I was a little frustrated though , as I could not get the layout to photograph it's true colour. The background is actually more red.


all the embellishments , besides the music button which is from Craftqueen and the music notes which I had in my stash are from Lizzy, who on the weekend gave me a bag full of goodies :)



I quite like using this pleated paper effect to add a little something and I don't know what has come over me, but I have gone quite cas again.
I am at a crossroads with my scrapping at the moment I think, not sure where it is going or if it will continue to go at all .
The photo is of my Grand daughter and photo credit goes to Winki Pop Media

Today the weather was quite nice , so I had a lovely walk with my  Grand Daughter. Tomorrow the weather is suppose to be awful again :( So over the cold


Until next time
Happy Creating
Love, Peace and Kindness

Hi Mary, your time away with the girls sounds like a wonderful time.. would have been hard to go back to reality.. This layout looks fantastic, love the colors and love the music notes too.. some papers will not photograph true to color no matter how hard you try to capture it.. I hope you will continue to scrap.. but i totally understand the crossroads that we come to sometimes in life.. I love your scrapping and would miss it!! Enjoy whats left of the week!

What a wonderful page! Perfect for that song....glad you could use some of the goodies and the pleated paper works a treat....strangely, I got a card in a swap today & guess which technique she used on it? She popped pieces of lace tucked into each fold and it looked really good!!! And GRRRRR to photos NOT showing their true colours, Very annoying!!!

A truly stunning photo of your DGD and I like the C&S style you used. Sorry to hear you are not sure where you are headed with style or even if you wish to continue. I had a patch like that last year and took myself off for a little rest and reflection, before coming back with renewed enthusiasm. Your layouts are inspiring and I would be sorry to see you give it all up. Hugs xo
