49 & Market Faded Memory Lane Journal page

Good Morning Ladies,  

Another hot day here,  we were on the beach by 10am,  at about 3pm the darkest cloud appeared behind us accompanied by very loud thunder,  so we did the sensible thing and packed up and came back to mobile home,   we just relaxed and read our books, did puzzle books and played games,  the thunder continued for most of the afternoon, it said we were due 3.6 mm of rain, in reality it wasn't even enough to cover my wheelchair cushion 🤣

I did dinner a bit earlier and we decided to take a walk to the beach further down the promenade,  it has proper pathway made out of what looks like old tires, although it isn't black its a similar colour to sand, it's a perfect solution for wheelchairs and pushchairs,  we had a paddle in the sea, well the girls and I did,  it was so calm,  Paul believes that after the sun has set you become food for sharks in the sea!!! 😂🤣  We collected some shells and sea glass, which is the girls 'treasured find' this year,  we have found quite a bit.  

This reminder is for anyone that is struggling with health or other stress,  it often feels like you are under a constant cloud of pain and unhappiness,   it will pass my lovelies, I promise 😘

I created this 49 & Market 'Faded Memory Lane ' journal page a fews before our holiday....

I used a page from the Faded Memory Lane paper pad,  i added some background stamping in brown ink,  I inked around the edges and added rub ons.

I used Versamark ink through Tim Holtz dotty stencil and added gold embossing powder for texture and sparkle. 

Then I started to build my 'cluster' of die cut ephemera to lay the flower focal point on.

Here you can see where I added the flower,  i can't tell you how incredible their die cut pieces are, that cone flower looks 3D ! I tore up a little piece of hessian to create a background for the sentiment.  A few white splatters finish the page. 

I hope that you all have a good day, 

Love and hugs to all
