Enjoy the Little Things

Good Morning All

Yet again, another dreary day, it cannot make its mind up if it is going to rain or shine, quite overcast , with rain overnight, which has surely greened up the lawn, cannot wait until the tank is hooked up to out new guttering which is being installed next month.

Now on to discuss this second challenge for the month which was one of the easiest i have completed for a while, I knew the exact papers i wanted to use and just hope their would be enough as i know the bag only contained scraps. Luckily the pieces i wanted still had the outside squares , even the card stock had a piece out of the middle . I now know why i kept all those little bits, as they do come in handy when you want a particular colour.I will  add the instructions as if i was starting with all new papers, as i used what i had to create this layout, with not much cutting.
I have now used Sea Breeze in its entity,  as i made a card with the left over bits , using my rectangle dyes to give it some depth.
