Hi everyone. Hope you are having a very nice day. I saw on Makeesha Byl's website a sketch challenge which I decided I would do. Since then my computer crashed - literally on the floor. I did the challenge, left it on the table and went to bed thinking I'd finish it in the morning. When I got back to it the next day I was stunned to see some strange marks!! Can you see them? We have had quite amazing rainfalls a month or more back resulting in mass plagues of grass hoppers! I can only think that these are the culprit as I also had lavender lilac and basic black cardstock out too. Obviously the creamy caramel was more suited to their diet - I guess it does look like dried grass a bit lol!! So I decided to keep the layout and write on the back about the pesky lil 'hoppers! These grasshoppers have kept the Pilbara kids fully entertained as they catch them, (keep them in tissue boxes after I rescued my good tupperware thankyou very much!!) then release them or forget them and rediscover them dead. The other thing we have lots of at the moment is big fat hairy huntsmen spiders! Every night before bed I'm having to do the spider patrol. One night I tried to catch one, failed after it jumped at me and I resorted to spraying it. Then it disappeared - dammit! That was it, Colby refused to sleep in this room. I'll post the finished layout later tonight.

Hi Helen,
love the lay-out.
I used to think the Hoppers only liked green... lucky they didn't eat your flowers. i have taken many photo's of them - they have wonderful colours in the legs. Maybe i should put some paper out back for them to make authentic for me for when i scrap them.. ha ha ha
Thanks Terri! Now you've seen the page in real life!!
even funnier in real life - i love how you finished off the page as well.
