Summer Paints Pages

Yesterday I treated myself to some new craft materials. But I am most excited by the double sided pages that Summer painted. When she gave them to me she said they were covers for a book. I was touched that at 6 years old, she understands what is important to me! I have scanned the four paintings and will make something special with them. I love the
yellow lined page... this will be great for journalling.
Meanwhile I am still working on the Alice in Wonderland mini album and have just 2 pages to complete. I will be going to my monthly crop on Saturday and want to take the finished album with me. A good excuse to spend time on it tomorrow, I think.
I mentioned last week that I am planning a creative retreat with friends in a Gypsy Camp. I have been busy preparing a mini album kit for each of us and that in itself has been fun. I wondered what I could use as the pages, as I loved the theme of Alice in Wonderland and using pages from the book. Then I found a Day Book that I have never used. As well as being laid out like a diary there are beautiful flower illustrations and borders around each page, so this will be perfect. I am adding lots of embellishments and printed papers, and I am getting quite excited about starting another mini album.
