Many Patterned Papers!

Been on a run of creating paper layouts recently. I bought myself a bunch of Jillibean Soup papers because they looked scrummy and were calling out to me.



This was my first attempt at it and it does look better in real life. The pictures have darkened a bit too much. My folks feeding birds at Portishead earlier in the year. My Dad was throwing bread at my Mother so the seagulls flocked around her!



Hall's Croft in Stratford, one of the Shakespeare houses.

Hamlet

Another week, another entry for the Scrummy Stash Cafe! This was a challenge to use up your scraps - although, having cut scraps from scraps I now have even more scraps... ah well.

I'm well aware that this sculpture doesn't really scream "Hamlet!" I scrapped the Midsummer Night's Dream sculpture back in August and that was a bit more obvious. Just the Macbeth one to do now.

Stratford

I made this for the first challenge on Cleo Crafts blog. I took it in evening sunlight, so it's cast some long shadows!

I really should be studying....

Not as happy with this one as the last one, but I'm busy ripping CDs to my iPod and thought I'd digi while I did it. I really am going to put in a solid hour with my books now.

Nicole Young - paper
Shabby Princess, Harvest Spice - paper & stitching

dream

Made this using kit that I won from the Scrummy Stash Cafe in their CyberCrop. Have used Pink Paislee - Office Lingo Collection, 'Outside the Box'. Sasafrass Lass - Life is Beautiful, 'Piccadilly'. Prima - Harmony Collection, 'Lil Melody'. Also used some of the buttons, ricrac and journalling stamp that I also won.

Love the ladies at the Scrummy Stash Cafe!

The picture was taken in the gardens of Shakespeare's house at New Hall. There was a series of sculptures based on his play. This one was the most obvious - A Midsummer Nights Dream. I have pictures of Hamlet and Macbeth that don't really resemble the plays at all!

Shakespeare's Birthplace

Made this for PencilLines sketch #99.
