Hello October & Hello My Dears!

Hi Deer & Fawn Designs lovelies!

Amanda (aka @happy_arty_days) here with you today

 for my very first post as a Guest Deer 

& let's just say I am just a lil bit EXCITED!!!

Wow! 

Thankyou so very much to Debbie, and her amazing Deers for inviting me to join in on the fun!

Now, speaking of fun let's get straight into the good stuff!

Here's my take on the "About Me" challenge.....

"Hello Happy Days"

Yep. That's me, just a few weeks back.... 

Hmmm... weird to scrap myself but we'll talk about that in a minute.

First up, I wanna talk pretty pretty papers and all things lovely because that is part of who I am - 

a lover of all things girly and pretty, lol!

This page has been created with the gorgeous Hello Lovely collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio. Just so stunning! 

Really soft, feminine patterns with gorgeous coordinating ephemera, bitty bows,

 sequins, and flair - divine! 

& Hello Lovely really reflects my personality......

If you know me, a lot of my greetings start with Hello Lovely! (pure coincidence)

  I truly believe that this life IS pretty wonderful! 

I am into affirmations, positivity, and yoga.

 I believe each day I have the potential to sparkle & shine - and to make each day a happy day.

So you can see why I chose this paper collection to create with.

Let's take a closer look at that very pretty ephemera....

How cute is that bitty bow?!!! Gotta love girly accessories ;)

Yep. Pretty wonderful indeed!

Hope you like my page and getting to know 'me' a lil more!

Now, let's quickly chat about scrapping yourself -

For me, it's not something I normally do & it felt awkward :(

But, don't let that put you off - it's so important for our story to be told too! Your children and grandchildren will be so pleased you did! 

So my Top Tip: Use a photo of one of your darlings while planning your page, & then just switch to your own image at the end - that helped me!

Now, what are you waiting for? There's an awesome prize up for grabs - 

so go scrap yourself!

& don't forget to link up your entry too :)

Hope you liked my take on the challenge & that I have inspired you to join in!

Thankyou for leaving a kind comment

til next time, 

Happy Arty Days, 

Amanda xo
