A Weeds and Wildflowers LO

Gina Marie Huff at Weeds and Wildflowers has created a kit called 'Going in Circles' its packed with circle shapes cut from all sorts, and doodles and stitches to match. Here is a layout I've made using them with a photo I took last December in Edinburgh.
I will take this opportunity to thank my friend Tracy (toothfairyface) for giving me a Rockin' Girl Blogger Award. Made me smile :) thanks tracy
