Garden Days

It has been a while since I have entered any challenges so as I have a nice quiet weekend at home I have entered Shimelle’s sketch of the week. I do like a sketch for inspiration.

I have used papers from the current scrapbook classes at Scrapbook Sisters. I had to leave early at the last class to pick my daughter up on her return from a school trip to Paris (they took some great photos in Paris some looking forward to scrapping some of  them when I get some copies)so i had only made one layout and had plenty of papers left.

Here is my layout

From this sketch;

2680

 

The photos are some I had printed recently of me in the garden at home in 1967, the summer before my sisters was born and you can just about see my very expectant mum in the background.

In fact I have had many photos printed recently by Argos online. They were doing a special deal and 4x6 prints were only 1p each – what a bargain! – so I took full advantage of it and now have about 300 4x6 photos ready to scrap.

As I still have lots of these papers left I may well try the Creative Scrappers challenge this week too!
