ITS SWELL!

Phew I finally did a catch up on my hybrid versions of past TCR layouts. Here's 'Sweet Serenity'from palette #75 and 'Be True'below that from palette #71.
To create the diagonal stripes on this layout I hand cut a screen from stencil sheeting, its a very affordable way to customise your designs and lots of quick and easy fun. All you do is draw up your design using a sharpie, mark the areas you want to cut out with a 'C'for CUT this helps keep you on track and then carefully cut out your design using a scalpel or stanley knife. 
Oh and almost forgot to share some piccies from the weekend. We went on a little family outing down to Currumbin to introduce Tige to the wonders of sculpture and art. The Swell Sculpture Festival is an annual event up here and is well worth a look if you ever in town during this time. Here were some of our faves and a couple of piccies of Tige to throw in the mix!

a little hot and bothered...

and a cool entry/vestibule into a block of units tucked away in one of the streets we were walking around. I had to stop and take a piccie I felt like I was transported elsewhere to some far away exotic land!

Now back to dreaming of travel, oh to just jump on a plane! ;)
