KIU JANUARY CHALLENGE

This month the challenge was to do a LO using a title with a summer word ..
I chose to use the word summer (because I had the alphas.. LOL )

I also decided to go a little "shabby chic" but I am not that happy with the end result for some reason or other, it didn't go together as well as some others ... but I thought I would post it anyway !!!???

I LOVE THIS PHOTO THOUGH.. ELLA AND ANNABEL XO




thanks for droppin by and taking the time to leave a comment
have a great day
LIGHT AND LOVE HEATHER XO

    Well i think it is beautiful Heather!!! sometimes we are our own worst critics, lol. Heather i meant to say to you in my last comment, after reading through your blog we seem to have so much in common hun. I lived in OZ for 8 years (my sister is still in NQL and she is a crafter, Helen Jolly). I lost my Brother when he was 26 and he was Mark too. Mmmm lots of similarities. Hugs Clare xxx
