First layout of 2015


I am doing well with my crafting resolutions so far, mind you it is early days. I have so many photos I want to make into layouts and am so glad I have made a start this year. We went on a trip on the Hobo Railroad in New England. It is a typical old American steam train and the ride through the Autumn countryside was beautiful. I used MME papers, tree diecuts from Michaels, washi tape, Memory Box cloud and Cheery Lynn train dies. I really like the effect of using different alphabets.

Brilliant scrap book page it looks a fab place .I love the layout and the letters look brilliant. I used to scrap book before I started card making and every time I see your pages I think I should start again but time is against me at present. Thanks for thinking about me for the DT call I think I'll give it a go as I nearly always have ribbon on my cards Love and hugs Carole x
