Moments - Scrap Africa Sketch no.21

Hi Everyone

Two posts in one day!! That certainly has't happened for quite a while! ;-) But while the going is good, why not share?!

There is a new sketch challenge up at Scrap Africa and it a goodie.


Here is my version of it.


I first did some stencilling (Kaisercraft stencil) on the background and then tore and distressed my papers. I am very happy with how this turned out and made for a very soft page.


I used the Bo Bunny C'est La Vie collection. It is such a favourite of mine.


The petals are Bo Bunny and the blooms Petaloo. The chipboard title piece is Enmarc.

This photo was taken 2 years ago, just before we were about to leave for a family wedding! These 2 boys were dressed up and polished for the occasion.

Thanks for your visit!
It is truly appreciated!
