Wanted to share a Scrapbook Layout with you today.
These two photographs were taken when I visited Amsterdam with my hubby and friends in August 2007 (the last time I flew actually!).
I have got to say that the photographs don't do this sculpture Justice, I wish now I had taken a picture of me or someone else standing next to it.
You cannot tell but, this sculpture was huge, about 3 metre's across, and it was breaking out of the floor like it was in the room below....Incredible, I remember thinking it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
What really surprised me about this piece was the fact that it was in the lobby of a building which was just a boring old exchange business suite, and there were no people to be seen (accept us, that is!)
I was so sad to think that it was hidden away like that, this could have been in the street somewhere where lots of people could see it.
I don't remember seeing a plaque telling me anything about the piece and I don't have a name....So I just call him The Violin Man.
I hope you like him as much as I do.
I have used Graphic 45 paper, and my New papers from "Stampin Up"...OOoo they are gorgeous! This lovely flower is a Funstamp by Lindsay Mason called Dotty Flower and I just love using this flower on a Scrapbook page, it's so nice and chunky and perfect to stamp on your favorite papers and cut out, had lots of use out of this one!
I have followed the sketch set at the gorgeous NEW Scrapbook Challenge blog over at Sketchbook 365, go take a look it's lovely.
