I'm not sure, but perhaps todays weather had something to do with bringing on said itch.
It's been about 6 weeks since I've scrapped, and during that time I've not had the urge to scrap. Not.even.once. And I can't say that I've missed it either.....Weird, huh?
But today, that little incling of an itch was there....so with miserable weather & not much else to do (as reading all the fine print & trying to understand everything with hiring a car in Ireland was starting to do my head in!!!)...I thought I'd best move onto something else & scratch that itch! lol
The sketch over at Skissedilla really tickled my fancy...errrr itch, so that is what I went with, and here is what I came up with...........
Using PP from the Prima Sunrise-Sunset collection for my background....although it looks nothing like the original piece. Lots of misting & stamping on there.
Apologies for the bad photos....miserable weather tends to do that when taking photos indoors :-/
Here is the sketch over at Skissedilla - sketch #212
And now for some close ups
Diecut leaves & flowers (the 2 larger ones)...
and a piece of 2crafty chipboard, "Lace Square", that I cut in half and you can see it just
popping out from under the photo too
Title & layers under the photos
And here's the other half of the 2crafty "Lace Square"
My journaling about our Sunday drive :)
And that's it folks.
Who knows when I will scrap again....could be tomorrow or perhaps another 6 weeks time.
Just don't go holding your breath....lol
Enjoy your weekend peeps & thanks for popping by...xx
(I'm hoping to spend some time tonight visiting my fav blogs....it's long overdue!)

I am so glad you gave in to your urge to scrap. You were missed! I love your layout with its layers and beautiful background work. I just completed a lyout that was inspired by your lighthouse layout....you inspire me with your creativity.
Amazing page! So glad you scratched that itch!! When we went away for a month I didn't miss scrapbooking at all either - everyone always makes you feel guilty about that - but honestly there are loads of things I love that I sometimes take a break from :)

Thanks for the love, love...just back from VIC...loved your 'before' & 'after' feature in SBM...FABULOUS....& me? Well, I think you should Lay Off more often if this is the result. Huh! 6 weeks off = a Stunner of a page....nothing more to say except I'd give you first prize:):):) Good luck with the Irish...what can I say....it's the IRISH... I can say that, having a grandmother from there!!!!!
