I started this page yesterday and have actually finished it today which is pretty quick for me! I bought these gorgeous October Afternoon Fly A Kite papers from Sarahs Cards a week or so ago and I just love them. I wanted to try and create a page that was a little bit different, sometimes it is so hard to not end up with a page that looks similar to lots of other pages that you have done.
The photo is of Rebecca and her German student Sarah, she came to stay with us last week for the second time. Although they hadn't seen eachother for nearly a year when they got back together it was as if they had never been apart. Rebecca is going over there in July and hopefully we will arrange our own exchange next year. Sarah is two years older than Rebecca and isn't allowed to come on the exchange next year due to exams. I really loved this photo of the two of them together, it was taken on the chain link ferry from Sandbanks to Studland.
Scrapping definitley isn't a tidy hobby! This is what my craft table looked like when I had finished, I must admit I was getting a bit frustrated with the mess as I kept knocking bits onto the floor, especially when I tried to fit the sewing machine on there as well.

that is such a beautiful layout Rachael. I love all the torn layers and the sewing. Just so in awe of your talent :) Enjoy the birthday celebrations (if you are invited...)
As usual just beautiful Rachael. Love the layering- it gives so much depth and texture. TFS
Beautiful photo of Emily. She looks such a happy girl with a gorgeous smil. Happy birthday Emily.
Love the repeated layering on the right hand sides. Looks beautiful.
I get annoyed with knocking things off my desk too, especially when I'm hunting all over for that perfect embellishment that I'd selected, only to find it under my foot after completing the layout with a substitute!
This is gorgeous.
Glad I am not the only one who gets in a complete mess. x
love the lo. :) Your desk looks better than mine! Glad Emily had a good day and posed for the photos for you. lol
What a fab layout, I love all the extra details that you put into your layouts. So glad that my desk looks just like yours when I scrap. Hope Emily has had a great day. xxx
