No place like home??

So back from part 2 and 3 of my summer hols seeing my sis and her hubby for a weekend in Reading. She has the most exciting job offer for Turks and Caicos and so they are just upping and leaving for a year! It was a farewell, but also a claiming of her apple green kitchen aid - perfect cupcakes here I come!!! Then we were onto Brugges to stay with Arne's grandparents and then a three hour drive down to Luxembourg to visit the rest of his family. Lots of road trips to little castles in Germany and a purchase of a fab plastic tablecloth. After our all day drive today from Dover to Leeds, entertained by texts from the other English teachers who were at school with the kids getting their GCSE results, I was so glad to see signs for Otley loom. Home sweet home...shame I had already made this page! So this page uses this challenge and a picture I have always liked from my exchange symester at Georgia uni. The journalling is all about how I kept in contact with my family and friends via email whilst I was away from home.
I embellished with lots of rub ons, layering and stickers. I am pleased with the title of stamping and misting and feel it gives the page a home spun feel.
This post is probably a blur as I am sooo tired and my contacts are all blurred!! But have a go at the challenge you have until the 31st of August and home is always a fab subject to scrap about! I will be getting back to blogging soon and will try to return some of the comments.
