    Beautiful, beautiful Heather !! Love your soft colour palette and those gorgeous textured layers. You are so brave to do a photo of yourself ( well you are pretty easy on the eye,so I guess there is no reason why you shouldn't )..I really struggle with 'me' photos. xx

    This is so outstanding! I love that lyrics (who doesn’t) – and I LOVE your layout!!! I have been thinking about joining in at Once upon a… Sketch, but I think I have to make a layout for White With 1 first. I have starting to love doing monochromatic pages and my favorite color when scrapbooking is purple!
