Inspiration

Hi all.
I said I would blog yesterday. Abi forgot she was going to London and didn't get back till 10.30 by which point she was just a little tired!
Ok, i will now stop talking in the third person and show you some lovely pics from our day out. Oh n just as a little aside, I have a crazy amount of work this hols and whilst doing that and trying to fit in driving lessons, scrapping has to take a back seat. I am still doing it just little and often so a page takes longer to complete. Photo's of LO's will come. I promise!
A few of my favourites from the day...looking up to the ceiling in covent garden. Love how geometric this picture is. A street performer who was truly brilliant. A lot of fiddle playing, clapping and dancing around. One of the many beautiful old fashioned signs.
And as I said a bit of inspiration for today. I bought this poster in The Saatchi Gallery and fell in love. The alphabet is fab but isn't the colour scheme amazing? I can really see these colours used on a spring themed page especially coupled with Kraft paper. Would love to see any pages inspired by these colours....Pink, Green, light blue red and brown. I also love the detail in white.
Another bit of colour and texture inspiration..These are a bracelet and a neckalce of my mums. The colour scheme is so elegant and the shapes are lovely. I also love the gossamer ribbon. Would love to see LO's made with these colours, patterns or shapes..Black, silver, dark blue and grey.
Hopefully will post more tommorow, thanks for stopping by.

Looks as if you had a fun day. The photos are cool.. I like the architectural roof shot, with that fab lantern! The colours in your poster are lovely and I like the mixture of different fonts used too.

Have a good half term week. We had a chill-out afternoon, once we'd done Grandma's Monday jobs.
