Discover Explore Nature

Afternoon all,

It's Friday, where has the week gone, a bit of sunshine today. I did get the washing dry and it's folded and put away.

I have been trying to blog  this layout for a couple of days, but life and  getting a decent picture made it difficult. I did take me a while to think about which photos i was going to use I decided on some very old ones. I have completed quite a large journal on the back of the page, due to the fact of the expansion of time, but thought these photos where right for this layout. I have taken a copy of them as well.

I think i have found a new favourite stencil ( i purchased as a clearance pack 10 for $20.00 it had large 12" x 12"  plus the 6" x 6") I love this Cris Cross one
