Together is my Favourite Place to Be - OUAS Nov 2013

Hello Everyone

I hope you have been having a good weekend and a good Sunday!

I am so happy to share my latest page with you, which is for the OUAS Nov.

Journalling Theme: "My Happy Place"


Here is my take on it.


I used Carta Bella Traditions and chose to bring out the blues. I wasn't at first so sure about the colouring, but I am quite happy with how it turned out.


My journalling is short and sweet, but says exactly what I feel. "I love being your Mommy and I am happiest when I have you close to me!" I certainly love this little boy!!!


I did some stencilling with Shimmerz TexturZ, along with stamping and also some watercolour effects and the chippies were embossed with various colours.


Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your evening!
