Summer Days

Yep - still going on the summer photos :)  I am using up my October Afternoon seaside papers on this, I made my own scalloped circle by cutting up the bunting paper in the range, the blue background paper is part of a family collection from colorbok.  I distressed and crinkled the edges.  I decided to add my own stitched swirls, using some cream wool...always punch the holes 1st and then stitch through them it makes it lots easier, and added some star buttons.  I made the flowers from one of the fly a kite October afternoon papers, the tutorial for them is here on the Bobunny blog. I added some lace around the edge of the flowers and a brad and some glitter.  My journalling spot was made using some nestabilities with co-ordinating stamps, the title cut out using one of the Tim Holtz alphabet strips and I wrote the 'days' bit in my best writing :)  This photo is from our holiday in france which was gloriously sunny and we speant many days on the beach where the kids were in and out of the surf, playing boules, building sandcastles and having lots of fun.  Here are some close ups of some of the elements.
