It's been a while

Wow l have been missing in action for a while!!
Today l am playing along with a couple of challenge sites.

The first one is More Than Words and my layout was based on their November challenge of wood grain and outdoors. You can check them out HERE.

I used a wood grain paper and the photo was my inspiration for the outdoors. This was the first time my sister's son had seen snow on a weekend away, and he was in awe of everything white. They even made a snowman! How wonderful to show your kids a different environment to the one they live in.

 Some close ups

 I have stenciled on my background, added thread and ink splatters. All my chipboard has been inked in black and them embossed in black

My pictures are from a recent trip to Bali where we experienced quad biking through rice fields, down dirt tracks, though steams of water and on a beach with black sand. It was an awesome afternoon!

I have stamped and inked my background, added Stickles, flowers, and followed their sketch which you can see below
