Petra's 365 Photos Challenge: Day 161

About this blog

Yes, I have got caught up in the "Photo-a-Day" challenge that has been promoted worldwide, I suppose by all those Internet photo companies that have sprung up over the last year or two...

As most people in the scrapbooking world, I also endeavour to not only take the photos but also journal them in the form of a 6x6" album. This is the fist time I'm working with such a small format but it works well, and reasonably quickly, for this project.

As I don't have facilities to print my own photos, I'm always at least a month behind with the pages, but will post batches on a regular basis...

Day 161 - June 10

Like my Mum, I love all things oriental, and when I mentioned that one day on the 365-photos forum in connection with that Mother's Day card I had made for my Mum (Day 123 - May 3 in July Archive) one of my friends there kindly offered to send me leftover fabric squares from an oriental quilt. They came a few weeks later, accompanied by a beautiful stamped card (which you can see in the cut of the heart). They are absolutely gorgeous!

Paper from CS "Asian Artisan" with some unkown chipboard hearts; alphas from Basic Grey and peel-offs from Craft Creations; and of course two of the quilting squares!
