Hello Friends. It's time for "Fancy That Wednesday", thanks to The Papercraft
Hub. :) And I have a layout to share with you that incorporates a few of
the gorgeous dies available from the shop...
"Cold Sand"

| Created by Leanne Allinson |
The scalloped rolled rose from the new release has been layered
with the base of several sweet blooms petals. I love that the effect is so
dramatic and has an icy demeanor, accentuated by being cut from the blue
cardstock... after all, I was journaling about "cold sand". a.k.a "snow"!!
*grin*
The petals on the rose have been rolled tight
and bent ever so slightly to create the fresh opening of a rose. The ginkgo die also reminds me of frost spreading across the layers
of paper. I've left some of the leaves to reach upwards, free of adhesive, to
add to the look and appeal. :)

As for the strange title... LOL! When Tahlia
was 22 months old, we traveled to England to visit hubby's family. It was in
February and she (and myself) saw snow for the very first time! The trouble
was, for a beach-going, Summer - loving toddler, it was really hard to explain
what snow was! lol! Tahlia however, came up with her own explanation of what it
was. Simply put... it was "cold sand"!
So last year, our very worldly 11yo, decided
she could tell her brothers exactly what this business of snow was all about!
*grin* I dare say she doesn't really remember her trip to England, but sometimes
explanations stick and stay true! hahaha!
Do you have any sayings that stay with you as
you or your children grow?! I love jotting these things down and reusing them
like this!
Thanks for visiting.
