Paper Stories April sketch

Yay...I've scrapped!

It kind of feels like forever ago that I last scrapped....my time seems to be taken up with a million other things lately.  But anyways....here is my take on the April sketch at Paper Stories....


Using 7Gypsies papers from a Paper Stories kit that I've had in my stash for quite some time....plus there's a couple of pieces of 2crafty chipboard in there too :)
 
 
And this is what the sketch looks like
 
 
 
 
and now for some close ups.....


A close up of my cluster....which includes one of the small clockface frames from 2crafty
 
 

Another 2crafty chippie piece....one of the keys from the mini key set,
and a handmade fabric button made by moi
 
 

My title
 

And journaling.
 
The photo was taken a few weekends ago...and was behind the old derelict house that I shared in my previous post.  I could not believe my luck when I went around the back of the old house and seen it standing there...so of course I got clicking away...lol
 
Thanks so much for dropping by.  xx

Linda, I am in the same boat...scrapping is taking a back seat to the busy business of life lately. SO glad you found time to create this beautiful layout, it's awesome!

this is another beautiful page from you ... i love how differently people can interpret the same sketch. the chimney is gorgeous...they dont build them like that anymore do they!!
i love the suttle stamping which to me looks like bricks and the papers complement the photo.
