Two posts in one day... Scrap the Girls October mood board

This layout I have had sitting around for a couple of weeks, forgot to post it!

I loved the colours in the mood board at Scrap the Girls and thought they went perfectly with these pics of my girls at Torquay beach a few years ago, and the jewels went well with the story...

I really enjoyed putting the embellishment cluster together with this one - it includes sea glass from the beach, stick and twine off a wine bottle, shell from a craft collection, tulle and the hessian lollipop flower as well as some "jewels".

Back to it.. White with 1

September somehow passed by without me doing a lot of (ANY!) scrapping.  I think it was end of term, starting bathroom renovations and getting the flu that just didn't leave me with any creative energy.  So the last couple of weeks I have managed to finish a couple of layouts, this first one for the challenge at White...with 1.  The colour this month was Orchid, and at first I didn't think I had anything in my stash that would work, but found a few scraps of paper and used a Prima mask with watercolour pencils for the background.

Quite happy with the result, including using a dried pressed viola from the garden that I found a couple of weeks ago in the bookcase!
