Testimony

I journalled about a building constructed by these two kidlets.
The story is on the back of the page.

It was a cold and rainy day during the school holidays and you were restless because you couldn’t play outside.

We decided to build a garage with toilet roll tubes. You glued the rolls together in a pyramid shape and stuck them onto a heavy piece of cardboard. Working in harmony, you debated each move in the process, deciding together, what would fit where. The final step was to paint the whole structure green and see which match box cars would fit inside. You joined a box on the end so the planes could land on the roof. You were so proud to take your building home to show Mummy and Daddy.

  4. Oh Helen this is beautiful. so soft and dreamy and yet you have also managed to make it boyish. The colours showcase the gorgeous photo beautifully. As always your journalling is a treasure for when your grandies are older.

  8. I cannot believe how big they are now. HOW did that happen? It is a shocker and they are such handsome boys and so inventive. I really like that punch you used on the edges it is really lovely. I haven't played along with CSI for ages and I do miss it. Love this layout with its clean lines and of course your stories. I do miss seeing your layouts.
