Did you see my post on Wednesday for WOYWW ? Well, if you did you will recognise the 2 photo’s featured on this LO. This is my effort for the weekly challenge on UKScrappers which was set by The Crafty Magpies team. The photo’s are of Eugene and Bruno and as part of the challenge was to use a quote for a title I chose ‘That Was Then, This is Now’ which perfectly sets the mood for the before and after type photo’s.
I'm really pleased with this LO and even more so as I used only scraps from my ever growing supplies of ‘scraps’ – no new sheets of paper were harmed during the production of this LO! Well, with exception to the the base blue cardstock.
The metal embellishment which reads ‘Friends For Life’ has been laying around in a tin for ages too so Im pleased that it final has a home and the alphas are really old ones (from a kit bought from the well known shopping channel zonks ago) which I coloured red with my ever faithful promarker.
Im on a bit of a roll this past few days and I have another 2 LO’s in production this very minute both of which I would like to have finished before Monday, as now that the kids are off school for the Summer Holidays (yes, thats right here in Ireland school is now out until September!!!!!!!!!) I doubt I will get as much crafty time to myself.
Hugs

Oh it's lovely Dee - although I'm still a little in shock about the summer holidays! LOL
ReplyDeleteA great layout Dee. I couldn't cope with school holidays that lasted that long!
ReplyDeletethats such a sweet layout. and what a change! they've got so big. lol
ReplyDeleteLove the design of this layout! Isn't it wonderful using up what we have!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout - love the colours and the papers, all the better because they are from leftovers. There's a certain satisfaction from finally using an embellishment that has been tucked away just awaiting the right home. As for the holidays, here in Scotland they start a bit later than yours at the end of June but go on well into September too - got to make the best of our summer, such as it is. Elizabeth x
