Life is an adventure - My creative sketches

 Gidday all!!

I am a bit of a sketch maniac so when I see a great sketch that is enough to persuade me to create a layout..
The sketch from MY CREATIVE SKETCHES was one I really wanted to scrap... and so I turned it to look like this....
The photo is my youngest who was at the time exploring our dry creek bed, it was full of vines and tall trees and was like a jungle... I took this photo and she looked like quite the explorer.... unfortunately in the floods last year we lost our trees and it looks totally different now...

Life is an adventure.... enjoy it!


I used Bo Ho Chic paper stack, assorted flowers and my favorite spellbinders die...

a bit closer...


Thanks for dropping by and I thank you all for taking a minute to leave a lovely comment too!!
