six month vacation

 hello crafters!

I'm joining in the challenge at Inkspirational this week where they have a mood board full of lovely pastel colours. I'm not sure why, but my mind went to laundry hanging on the washing line... well, in a round about way.

I found a panel of watercolour in my stash of inked panels, which contained lots of lovely pastels and thought it would look so pretty as the washing die cut. The sentiment backing and the birdies were also cut from the panel. The sky was stencilled, and the grass was simply torn to create a rough edge, but then I used the back side where you couldn't see the really rough part. The sentiment is a Tim Holtz small talk sticker which I thought perfectly echoed my musings on washing days ;) 

Since I haven't used the washing line die before, I'm also posting this to Darnell's fabulous blog, NBUS. Thanks so much for stopping by!
