Whats old is new again sketch challenge

Okies - so I did this  sketch last month  and wasnt  overly happy with it  but I was driving in the car  today and was inspired to do this months  sketch - had a small  revelation about using my  beautiful vintage sheet music for the  scallop edge and  THUS!!!!

This pic was taken in my parents  backyard on our last day in Melbourne  last January before we left  for Queensland.  These are  my inlaws  standing with us.....Yummy Websters papers and an oldie MME ( I think) for the background....TFL

Songbird scraps

I was inspired by one of the song choices on Songbird scraps and so I did this  LATE  last night  I love this pic of  two  of my boys - Up a tree at Riverfire in Brisbane in September...  and i LOVE  thses Collage press papers so it  fit that I should put the two together!!!

And I have almost  finished  putting the November  kits together  so they should  go up towards the end of next week.......Look out for them - they go FAST!!!

Some ATC's - from me.....

I love love love ATC's  but Im not always the greatest at them - It doesnt help that i have some friends who are AMZING at them...But anyway - here are two of mine...The first one is for the Theme "New beginnings" - made me think of a new day - so that was my inspiration - Handcut all the  windows and popped them out  so it looks like you are looking  out through the  window....

and then this one I just  love - the theme is FANTASY

I found this stunning image  of a fairy holding a fairy holding  a fairy   holding a fairy - Well-  you get the picture!!!
