Hi, the title of the new Crafty Individuals Challenge is the Last Days of Summer, but here in the UK we appear to be getting our Summer in September, all sunshine is welcome whatever the month.
For this project I used the books Nature's Beauty, Miniatures and Book 1 Background Papers, all by Crafty Individuals. ( Sorry can't be more precise as the books are all in bits. ) Stamps used are
CI-209 and C1-154. Gold Embossing powder, Multimatte medium, Distress Inks and the rest from stash.
Also would like to enter this piece for The Craft Barn where they are asking for an AJ page.
We came back on Saturday from Stratford on Avon after having a wonderful week. We visited Bourton on the Water where I bought some beautiful china for Christmas presents plus visited the RSC and managed to see 3 Shakespeare plays. Its been 7 years since we have been there and all three of their theatres are now set out like the Globe, wow it was wonderful.
We did loads of walking and I mean loads, my poor little feet are worn to the bone. Started out at 5ft 3inches and came home 5ft 2inches - and they say walking is good for you.............lol
Am gradually catching up with all your blogs and seeing your wonderful projects. Have a terrific week and take care, hugs Annette x

Really nice composition and colors and I enjoyed hearing about your trip to Stratford on Avon. Would have loved to see those Shakespeare plays. It's good that you mix work (which can be pleasure) and play (which sometimes can be work!) LOL! I wish I could walk all over Europe like I used to. Bad knee right now. Enjoy the walking while you can!
