Happy Hours On Tamborine Mountain - Once Upon A Sketch March Challenge




















Hello friendies! March is gone...anyone know where it is? Didn't get much done this month but I was not going to miss out on an opportunity to take advantage of another beautiful sketch by Nadia at Once Upon A Sketch for the March challenge. The theme of the challenge is "It's the Weekend". This photo of little Isabella was taken during my visit to Australia in 2012. One weekend we decided to drive up Tamborine Mountain and the beautiful scenery took me right back to South Africa even though I was in a different country and the few hours we spent there almost made me feel like I was back home together with my family. Of course little Isabella took every opportunity to explore, and of course I took every opportunity to take a picture. At five years old, this little girl already has such a busy little life..school, homework, karate, swimming and the list goes on, so when the weekend arrives, it's bliss not only for her, but also for Mommy! :) Here is the gorgeous sketch for this month. Journaling is done on a piece of vellum rolled up and tucked into the torn section on the left of the page.



















I also used some pretty pearls from Flourish With A Bling being FWAB Adhesive Pearls 100 Pack Pewter
and FWAB Adhesive Pearls 100 Pack Plum. And with that I am going to love and leave you and try and get on with my next project. Happy scrapping!!xx
