PROMISE - BITW challenge

I don't know why but I lurve Bird is the Word challenges. .I love to think of quotes or special titles for my layouts and use the challenge word in that way... so amongst the zillions of challenge sites out there, I try to get the BITW one done... so the new word is PROMISE..http://birdisthewordchallenge.blogspot.com/2012/01/january-1-2012-new-challenge-word.html and I found a quote with the word promise in it and a photo that I thought suited and just had a quiet time scrapping in the 40 degree Queensland heat this afternoon.. As the photo is black and white I started with some black and white papers and added a dash of pink...


some close ups.. lots of layers.. and I used up some of that fozz felt.. I loved that stuff when it first came out, but it didn't like me... I would have most of it stuck to my fingers and not the layout... so glad I used the last of it up !!!




And I got a mention for my 'time' layout for BITW http://birdisthewordchallenge.blogspot.com/2012/01/time-challenge-winners-and-surprise.html so that was a wonderful surprise!!


This may be my last post for a while.. I will be absent for a little holiday.. I know I will miss coming by your blogs, but hubby and I  need some time out.. 2011 was a trying year for us and we have to take a break.. so i will be back in a little while....  If you were wondering, I will be looking at something like this....
So take care, and thanks for your comments which i will look forward to reading when i come back....xx

    Lizzy your layout is just gorgeous I love all the beautiful lace and butterflies and just that touch of pink. It sounds like your heat is similar to the temps we are getting here, so its the perfect weather to stay indoors by the air-con and craft. I hope you have a great holiday and enjoy the beach.
