Thank you too for all your lovely comments & support of each other’s work! Acknowledgement is awesome & often sadly lacking in this world, so taking the time out to let others know their efforts are appreciated is a really important goal here!!
Onto Reveal 4 from Scrap Around The World Designer Eila Sandberg together with an unusual sketch from our resident sketch designer, Jules McKenna-De Lumen!

Here is my layout for this challenge
I was inspired by the peach & cream colours of this mood board & of course the flowers!
The combination made for a very feminine page of my daughter.
Here are some close-ups. I used this old Basic Grey I found in my stash and combined it with beautiful prima flowers and leaves.
Now onto the prizes you can win!!
This month our merit winner will receive this huge prize pack from Green Tara!
Green Tara are an Australian based company & are importers & wholesalers of fine handmade & milled mulberry papers,beautiful ribbons, fabric flowers, washi tape, etc. They are continually adding to their collections of high quality products & provide papers with rich colours, wonderful textures & beautiful patterns.
Their growing business has provided work to many villagers in the area where the paper is made. Mulberry paper (or saa paper as it is called in Thailand) is made from the bark of the mulberry tree, which peels from the trunk of the tree at the end of each rainy season, making it an ecologically friendly product, as no trees are cut down in the process!
The bark is pulped & spread onto large racks to dry then used to make numerous products, including the Green Tara petals & flowers – which are all hand made. Their riibbons are made from the finest quality fabrics available & their already extensive range is continually growing. The latest Green Tara product is Washi Tape.
