Hi all,

Today the weather is wet and dreary here in Adelaide, I don't think it has really stopped raining all day. This being the case I haven't set foot outside so it was a good day to sort my scrap room. I FINALLY got to the end of cleaning up my scrap room after working on it for a week or so on and off.....hooray!

 It has been lovely getting to the point where one can actually create again.

It was especially nice to know that everything was in its new place and it was so easy to find things. My new shelving is working a treat and my boxes are easier to get at so I am a happy camper.

After all that hard word this afternoon I treated myself to some playing time to make my page for the color room palette #170 .
 
 
 

It was a tricky one to get the balance right and I'm not sure I managed it even now. I think I would like to have seen a little more grey however it was getting way too busy so I thought enough was enough. We also had to use a toothbrush as a part of the design, I splattered some grey paint around the background using a toothbrush over the top of a yellow prima colour spray.

I used an old Christmas photo from our dear Aida's first Christmas as she was wearing red and it seem to suit. An unusual colour combination for Christmas but I hope you like it.

Stay warm,
Angela
