Summer holidays here are drawing to a close and soon school will be back.
I'm always sad when its over - I love having no routine and the kids home. We've just got home from a few days away at Stanley, NW Tasmania - climbing, swimming, playing beach cricket, barbeques and generally relaxing. Ah, just what we needed.
So now I need to scrap! I managed to get this done-
using more of my kit up...
This was a bit of fun and Ombre always appeals - so jumped in with my Pan Pastels to create colour fading down the page...
I created down one side of the page and then the other side looked really unbalanced and sparse, so stamped different sized butterflies to even it out a bit. I dont use the PanPastels enough... shouldnt put them out of sight - then I'd think to use them more!
