Sleeping Beauty

I suppose it was always going to happen..... now that I am a granny, I am probably going to turn into a scrap- booker too..... I have done the odd LO here and there before, but not very often, but I have a funny feeling that there will be more in the future......
This LO is heavily influenced by my two favourite scrap artists, Finnabair and Heather Jacobs
Thank you ladies for your constant inspiration!

  24. An absolute masterpiece... so clearly inspired by love - and what a beautiful photograph! The colour blending and textures in the background are extraordinarily lovely - and the Finn-style embellishing is so glorious in your hands - glowing with muted vintage beauty. Stunning! Can you tell that I quite like it?!
