Cleaning??? No...Creating !!!

While cleaning up my craft room ....I came across this pretty paper that I love from long ago. Well so much for the cleaning....my mind immediately started combining this paper with a lovely sketch that they have for Just Add Ink  (#203) that came up just this morning and I was off again Lol !!

Even though I was creating in the only tiny clean square left on my table I could not stop !!


The photo does not really do it justice as it that lovely soft sky/baja breeze colour IRL and the pearls on the panel also look much prettier than in the photo. Oh well!
My friend Lisa kindly lent me the lovely stamp set last time I visited her and it was just perfect I thought for the central sentiment panel of the sketch.
Now that it is finished I will be good and go back to cleaning my room....unless I find another pretty piece of paper.......Lol!
Also entering this in Crafty Hazelnuts February challenge. I love creating with pretty papers-thanks for inspiring me to use my stash!

It's always lovely coming across old friends in the craft room! I love that sentiment label you've used. Vicky x

I'm a hoarder of paper and find it hard to use up! So it's great to see you actually getting some use out of the papers you love.

You've done a fab job with our sketch this week.

Love the soft tones Robyn and how you mixed the flower pattern on the top with the stripes. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.

So soft and pretty Robyn - love the colours! I too keep creating until my work area shrinks to almost nothing (glad that I am not the only one haha!). I think it's great to create when inspiration strikes otherwise later on, you forget what you wanted to do! Good luck with your cleaning up :-D
