Hello Everyone
I hope you had a good Monday. I had a hectic and busy day at work, so nice to finally relax at my craft table and get a few things done.
There is a new Vintage Challenge up at Scrap Africa and we have a super Guest Designer Lisa Griffith. So please pop over and take a look. She is amazing! ;-)
Here is my take on this challenge. I created a vintage page of my sister and I when we were very small little girls! ;-)
I really did dive into my scrappy stash for this page and was happy to some very old goodies! So perhaps this page is probably vintage, in more ways than one! LOL. The papers and most of the chippies are Crate Paper, along with some Basic Grey chippies.
I used a lot of chipboard pieces, along with the gorgeous circle rounds from Blue Fern Studios.
I created the background, with my usual combination of gesso, watercolouring and stamping! ;-)
I just know that one or two of you, still have some of these bits in your scrappy stash too! ;-) But whether you will admit it, is another story too! He he he
Here's a close-up of the journalling and tells you about many a holiday spent by these pools. Badplaas, means Pool Farm and they had many a pool to pick from.
It would be awesome if you could play along.....
Thanks so much for stopping by!
