You & Me

Today we had an extended crop at Papermaze, to help raise funds for the roof of the Otley Village Hall, where we meet every month. So instead of one, there were three layout kits available to purchase. Here is the first of those, designed by the talented Lorraine. 

I chose to scrap these two pictures of a lovely day I shared with Catherine and Florence, last December. We went to Greenwich Park for a walk to Greenwich Village for a little Christmas shopping. We had lunch in The Pavilion, then back to Florence and Catherine's home to read one of the books we purchased. 

The kit included:
Pre-Die-cut shapes and letters in funky foam and card.
12" x 12" White Cardstock
4 pieces of 12" x 6" patterned paper from various designers

Distress Inks
