Cousins

My sister and I grew up very closely (although far geographically) with all of our cousins on our mother's side. Now that we have all started families it's been tough to get together for visits since my Aunt's family lives 2 provinces and 4 days (by car) away. We were all able to get together for the first time in 3 years this past month and the newest generation of cousins was finally able to meet. We were able to capture them all together in this photo which was too priceless not to put onto a scrapbook page.

Another SWAP

Red is my favourite colour but Orange is in a close finish. I never used to like Orange, I can't explain why. Recently, however, I have come to find it an alluring colour. The warmth of yellow softens the stark passion of red (which I love) to create a bright, fun and exciting colour that catches attention. I love combining it with Tempting Turquoise as I did here with this birthday card that I created as part of my convention swap collection.
