Wistful Blues:Tracey's Second Reveal and a Fond Farewell

I am so grateful for my time as a Swirlydoos Design Team member. It's been my dream since joining Swirlydoos 3 years ago as my first experience with a kit club. It changed the course of my scrappy "career".  I learned how to challenge myself and learn new techniques. I learned to have faith in my scrapping enough to try out for publications and other DTs. Most of all,I met some of my dearest friends and for that,I am truly grateful. 
I will still be around,you can't get rid of me :) but my family needs some extra attention at this stage in my life and we all know,family comes first.
Before I sail off into the sunset,I have one more page to share with you using the serene August kit,"Wistful Blues." The kit has a pink side to it as well:



The pic is my beautiful ballerina niece with impossibly long legs. I added 2 older Prima flowers,a Leaky Shed Studio chippies and doilies to the kit contents.



Look at the beautiful pink beads Krissy found for us! I chose to cluster mine and tuck into the Petaloo paper blooms.

As usual, I love to layer! I added paper doilies and the Prima packaging for more depth.


I hope you will enjoy this kit as much as I did and I can't wait to see what you create!

Leave it to you to find the "pink side of the kit!" LOL Simply gorg!
Just read something and had to send it your way

"One life on earth is all we get, whether it is enough or not enough, and the obvious conclusion would seem to be at the very least we are fools if we do not live it as fully and bravely and beautifully as we can." Frederick Buechner

Family first!
