BUSH LIFE ~ A2 Z SCRAPLETS

Hello ! 
I would like to share a couple of layouts with you tonight. Firstly my DT layout for A2Z Scraplets using the fab chipboard title "Bush Life"



Where else but the bush would you get photo bombed by a calf and dog saying hello to each other lol . The photo is of my hubby.



To see how I treated the chipboard just pop over to the A2Z Scraplets blog






Next a layout for the challenge at Home and Scrapped to use your stash with the theme History. Well I do love a bit of vintage. I was torn last night in wanting to watch a Show on TV and Scrap, so  what does one do ? I actually did this sitting on the lounge :)


This is a photo of both sets of my Grand Parents with one of my brothers , I would say at his First Communion. 
I used some old A4 Prima "Pintery " Pattern Paper and simply ripped it into pieces and then placed them here and there until I was happy with the effect. I also used some PL Cards to add layers. Everything I used is old stash, so always feels good to use things up.



I used the original photo ( after I scanned it ) I like the small size and the aged look , even though the quality is not so good.

Thank You for calling by I do appreciate that you take the time and your comments make me happy.
Love , Peace and Kindness
Mary x

ADORE the ripped layers and that 'saying' about family in the 2nd page...good on you combining TV with scrapping. I do that sometimes, but have to drag so much stuff inside then back out again & I ALWAYS keep forgetting stuff..... I ADORE that top page. Love the little brown tag with the 'rope string' down the bottom. That is a brilliant photo, too:):) OH! AND ThE TITLE....adore how you've 'fussied' it up!

Two superb vintage pages Mary. Fancy being photo bombed by the livestock! You are lucky to have so many precious vintage photos. The texture you achieved on the chippy looks wonderful. I like the ripped Prima, it works a treat and the quote is perfect. I scrap in front of the TV if the programme is interesting enough, or sort out spilled beads and fussy cut butterflies from papers.
