A scrapbook page - I made it back finally!

Wow, that's a long time without posting anything!  In the meantime I notice Blogger is all changed so hope I can find all the usual stuff I need to compose a post....

 It all started when my camera broke, then I got a new one for my birthday a couple of months later but somehow my 'oomph' had deserted me by then.  Now that my little boy has started school I'm trying to get back into some papercrafting because I really find it relaxes me when I finally have a go!

To get myself back on the horse, so to speak, I chose a sketch from 365 Cards but rather than making a card I decided to make it as a 6x6 scrapbook page...

We took this photo the week before he started school when we went to check out the school playground [the most important part of a school for any 5 year old, right!?] and thought the photo would work really well with the circle theme.  The little circles dotted around were surplus to my marathon of die-cutting up lots and lots of scraps into letters with my Cuttlebug, they are all the centres from the o's, a's, p's, g's etc LOL!  Waste not, want not I say hehehe....

I will add some  journalling later, but here is the main image.
