Best Day

Hi guys,

Another lovely peaceful day here in South East Queensland. The days are lovely  but the nights are cool and crisp. Good sleeping weather.

I made a start on the Kraft + Challenge yesterday and finished it off this morning

The Challenge this month is to be inspired by Fashion, the photo has blacks and pinks
What i chose to scrap was a photo of my Graduation. It wax taken in 1968
The dress was blue organizer  with a blue silk linnng. I made it with my mothers help, both materials extremely hard to sew on a treadle sewing machine.

When i was stencilling i dropped some modelling paste on the card stock tried to get it off  but just made a mess,  so decide to add some more and scrap it off so the kraft  card looked aged. I wish i could manage to just use the paste on the stencil and not everwhere else. I had already made three attempts so ended up wiping  it over with a damp cloth.
