Cherished Memories

Afternoon All

Rather warm out there today, even when we went to the markets early this morning, we knew we where in for a hot one for the rest of the day.
What else is there to do, the neighbourhood is so quite, must all be inside with air conditioning on. I know I am .

Yesterday afternoon, I thought i would make a start on the Archi Scraps Challenge:
The challenge is to create a stain glass effect on your layout, card or tag.
I decided to do a layout and knew the perfect frame i wanted to use. Hopefully i have achieved the desired effect. It is a picture of  me holding our eldest daughter in 1973
