Lasting Memories

 

This is the colour palette #3 for July.

The picture took me back to a picnic get together I had with 2 friends and our babies.

I'm sure all the colours are there.

Try it on Tuesday and Beautiful blossoms.

 

In my stash is these covers from an old notebook I owned. 

I cut one piece so that the white label part is in the centre.

Next, I found a circle with scalloped edge and a watercolour painted flower garden. The pink matches the background, so I used it. My sentiment says keep smiling.

This will go into my get well cards.

I'm entering this on Try it on Tuesday

****************************************************************************

I made a 2nd card with the other piece for Beautiful blossoms.

It is going in the Mother's day cards.

Shopping our stash

 

While I'm using purple cardstock, here's another challenge that will suit. POPSICLE COLOURS at Shopping our stash.

I used a strip of the dark aqua with vellum overlaying it. The scalloped border contains popsicle colours too. The large circle sentiment is recycled but the colour is perfect. Both the lilac colours are there, one is the background. I added some enamel dots just for fun!

I had to photograph it as my scanner is playing up today.

Neglected stuff

Last night I found some old playing cards in my stash so began covering them with scraps of patterned paper.

For Neglected stuff challenge I added one of them to a card. along with some dots that are also many years old.

Lasting memories mood board.

 

It's whale season here in Australia and the are often seen off the coast heading north. I went to some famous cliffs above Kurnell beach to see if I could see any. Alas there were none! People with strong binoculars said they were further out. 

I used the 3 photos I took on this layout. I had a paper that had a round map of the world so started with that. I added a circular photo then several tags that toned in with it. I added the 2 landscape photos horizontally across the lower half.

Here's the palette at Lasting Memories.

Junk journal cover.

 I've just covered my Junk journal which is now complete. I used the last 2 papers from my Counterfeit kit plus some smaller items on the front cover.

I will use mod podge to cover it and protect the smaller pieces from coming off.

Li'l red wagon and last 4 pages of Junk Journal

 Here are the last 4 pages of my junk journal.I've made 33 pages! The first one is PINK. Coincidentally, Li'l red wagon has been mind reading again.

Their current criteria is pink!

I couldn't flatten it very well because of the bulky book. I used 2 playing cards which I made look like doors and used gift wrapping paper to match the roses on the door.

                                            *****************************

Here's the other 3 pages.

Now all I need is to cover the book.
