missy and DREAM

Roxannee says, KAYA!

Distressing is one of my favourite techniques. Almost every layout or card I make has some paper teared, inked or sanded. To be honest, I was way out of my comfort zone whilst making this project- I used pink (because the dress was pink), I tried vintage style, I had to make a poem about my feelings with wearing a dress and the hardest bit- scrapped my baby photo! Thanks Marj for this challenge, I had fun.

After the guests have left for Easter lunch, we ran to the local park and chilled out. Ashton's just 14 months old and was playing in the sand pit. He liked the feel of the sand in his hand.
