Simples Pleasures in life - More than Words April Challenge

Hello Scrappy Friends - today I’m sharing a layout created for the More than Words April Challenge.



I was inspired by the vibrant colours and the flowers of the mood board and used the word “Escape” in my journalling, which is on the back of the layout.

The journalling reads:-

When you come to spend the day with us each week, you always have a jam packed agenda of fun things to do. One of these includes dressing up for a photography session. You bring your favourite dresses, pick some flowers and we both escape into our fantasy worlds. You, as a model and me as a photographer. You assume all sorts of poses and facial expressions without any direction from me. Together we capture the innocence of childhood and the joy you find in everyday moments. "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing". George Bernard Shaw

  14. Well I think that it is a perfect combination because you capture her essence perfectly. She is a character and the papers are perfect for her too. Beautiful layout Helen. I can imagine that she has you wrapped around her little finger. Shame for me but the twins don't want to know anything about the camera :(
