cherries

Hello everyone and have a nice July!

I can't believe that the first month of the summer is already gone...

Anyway, this is my page for our sketch challenge at Scrap Africa: cherries!

This is the sketch Denice created and as you can see it requires two photos...

...but I decided to use a single photo and cut it in two pieces to create the two photos effect.

I don't know who is the manufacturer of the paper I used for my page, but I really like it because it fits perfectly with the retro feel I wanted to give. I incorporated it with some 7Dots Studio (Domestic Goddess collection) stickers, alphas and chipboard pieces and a piece of green paper (Basic Grey 'Origins'). Of  course I did a lot of stamping and masking and had a great time...:) 

I think now it is your turn to create something beautiful,

Get Creative - 4 reasons to love Winter

Τέσσερις λόγοι που μου αρέσει ο Χειμώνας.... Το καλοκαίρι είναι η αγαπημένη μου εποχή, αλλά τώρα έχουμε Χειμώνα και πρέπει να συμβιβαστώ με αυτό. Έτσι σκέφτηκα να βρω τουλάχιστον τέσσερα ωραία πράγματα που μου αρέσουν, μπας και συμπαθήσω λίγο και εγώ αυτή την εποχή. Γιατί τέσσερα θα μου πείτε? Γιατί το sketch της Μελένιας που παίζει από σήμερα στην πρόκληση του Get Creative έχει τέσσερα 'παραθυράκια'...
Four reasons I love Winter... Summer is my favorite season but now its Winter and I have to compromise with it. So, I thought I should find at least four things I really like, just in case I feel better with this time of year. The reason I chose four things is because Melenia's sketch in Get Creative's challenge has four squares.

Για να πω την αλήθεια δεν δυσκολεύτηκα και πολύ να βρω αυτά τα τέσσερα αγαπημένα πράγματα για τον Χειμώνα και τώρα που το σκέφτομαι κοιτώντας τις εικόνες, νομίζω ότι είναι αρκετά καλοί λόγοι για να τον συμπαθήσω και γιατί όχι, ίσως και να τον αγαπήσω ;)
To be honest, it didn't took me much effort to find those winter things and now that I can think of the images below, I think they are good enough to make me like Winter, maybe even love it!
