What was your favourite childhood toy?
Did you collect cabbage patch dolls, Polly Pocket, barbies, beany babies or My Little Pony like me?
Well all these toys were fab, but I had no pics of them and when I think about mini Mel she was always on the swing - whether it be in the garden or at the park.
So here she is swinging away.
Reaching for the stars - hence...
This layout was stash lite as I used lots of my scraps. I got my trustee (and much negelected) Slice out to cut out various shaped stars. I then inked them to make them pop and pinned some down with brads. I must admit I did scraplift this idea from the latest Scrapbooksetc magazine.
This layout is more graphic than my usual style and I had to be very careful not to smudge the inks - I am usually a very messy scrapper!
I must admit I can't pass a swing to this day without having a go. Perhaps I should have joined the circus!
Completed for this gorgeous blog.
