Today at As You Like It Challenge we would love to see your projects featuring your favourite animal, remember to tell us why too.
No prizes for guessing mine but bear with while I tell you why...
I love all animals (perhaps not mice though!!) but horses and ponies will always have a special place in my heart. My love for them was inherited from my Paternal Grandfather (Pop) who worked with them. I am sharing a scrapbook page showcasing my favourite picture of me and my beloved Surprise. I thought it was about time that I used some 12x12 papers from my stash instead of looking at them!! I was shocked when I realised that this photograph was taken fifteen years ago.
Here is the whole layout
I thoroughly enjoyed putting this page together, it is a bit primitive, but not a bad effort I thought!!
Thank you Marianne for sharing your pages...you inspired me to have a go!!
Have a good weekend when it comes. We are due more wild weather I think so it might be an indoors crafty kind of weekend here!!
See you soon xx

ReplyDeleteGorgeous page and Surprise is just beautiful and l am with you on the mice - ok on a card but real life NO x
ReplyDeleteCertainly not primitive, Sarah! We prefer the word "classic," right? It's clear to see that it evokes a lot of emotion and that's what scrapbook pages are supposed to do. Surprise is a beautiful animal!! Hugs, Darnell

A lovely page Sarah. In fact, you've made me wonder whether to take scrapbooking up just to use some of my vast array of papers up x
ReplyDeleteSarah... tut tut I don't think its primitive, I love how you've taken the colours from the photo and used those to create your layout... its really extends the photo yet draws your eye into your and Surprise. Great layout to keep as a lovely memory for the future x
