Smash Your Stash Journal Page Challenge

 Sorry Vicki-I am late posting as a neighbour rang to take me shopping then came back for a drink and had an after-noon of putting the world to right lol.

Last Saturday of another month and time for Smash Your Stash journal page challenge with my blogging friend Vicki of Stamped Smiles so hope you will check out her inspirational blog.

The prompt this month is "Favourite Things" and I picked flowers and Bees. The stamps are from AALL&Create, Chocolate Baroque  and IndigoBlu, coloured with promarkers-the flowers are paper pieced with paper from Paper Boutique and stencilled background with stencils from Stencil Girl.
