Wet!!

I used Queen of Hearts' fab new templates, Color Pops V4 and Hazel Olive's Moody kit.

Flower Girl

We travelled around the southern part of Iceland during the summer and sometimes there was volcanic ash everywhere. If it was windy and dry, it was like dense fog. This day, we drove out of the ash into an oasis with a creek and a waterfall, and stopped for a little while. It was weird to see walls of ash everywhere, except where we were, which was this sunny little beautiful stop. Lovisa made use of the time, sitting quietly by the creek picking flowers :)I used one of Studio Basic's new templates from her The First Of 2011 template pack. I also used the January Free With $10 Purchase collab kit, Blooming Morning, from Digiscrappers Brasil.
