My little merboy......

Do you think it was because Ben was born in a birthing pool that he adores water or is it because his mother was exactly the same?
A regular fish...I lived in a swimming cossie (togs) until I was 14 and became too self conscious. Which reminds me Mum sent me a great photo of me in a pool recently and I really must scrap it. (Note to self)

I caught these wonderful photos of Ben when he was screaming with pleasure at himself in the bath clearly loving the sound of his own voice. (I have no idea where he gets that from... he he)
I named it SPLASH because it conveys lots of bathtime conotations.

Although it isn't a scrap lift it must be an ode to Toni because it was her who told me to paint the paper doiley. Thankyou Toni xxx.

I was surprised it worked because once when I used alcohol inks it just killed it, the edges tore in places but that just adds to the charm. The background lined cardstock is from Websters pages I wish I could get my hands on more of their stuff but I only have 2 pages so am using/choosing them carefully. The metal butterfly is from an Anna Griffin kit.

I had another go with my distress paints as the large brown flower looked very flat but this time I used a similar colour rather than a contrasting one. Do you get the feeling this will be my signature from now on!!!

Love and wet cameras
