Summer Dreaming ~ Scrap Challenge Yourself

Hello ! Finally I am getting around to posting my layout for the new Challenge at Scrap Challenge Yourself , which is.....


as it is winter here in Australia I am definatley dreaming of warmer days. To help me get to sleep at night and to hope to one day make the dream come true I think of going to a Greek Island (I'm thinking Paros )

My layout is me on the Island of Patmos in 2008. We spent 10 wonderful days there.We have friends from Patmos and they still have a house there, which they kindly offered for us to stay in. Their relatives that still live on the Island were so kind to us, and because of their hospitality the memories will always hold a special place in our hearts.



I really think I should have be born on a Greek Island or a Tuscan Villiage. Either would be fine by me. 

Thank you for calling by , I really appreciate any comments.

Love, Peace and Kindness
