What can't I do without?

Tea, for one. Show Us Your Stuff's #1 challenge for March is to scrap about something you can't live without. I really look forward to the one cup of tea I have per day. I find it enjoyable and soothing. So, I decided to go and make a cup of tea. As it was after midday I had to make a decaf one and I drank it whilst scrapping this layout. How's that for inspiring? As I started doing to layout I discovered that it closely resembled a sketch I had printed that morning for the challenge at Anna's Craft Cupboard so I decided that it would do nicely for both challenges. I enjoy making girl, pink layouts as I don't get to do it often. I incorporated two home made flowers I have recently made. The bottom part of the flower is a lace flower, the top is a satin ribbon flower on black tulle. Combined I quite liked the effect. For Show Us Your Stuff you must include something homemade and the flower fit the bill nicely. I've used Anna Griffin papers and Basic Grey stickers.

    I've also entered this lay out in February Sketch #5 over at Get Picky. The inspiration photos match this layout perfectly. Lovely soft pinks and creams.
