How gorgeous is this paper? I love it. I really do. It’s pretty, soft, elegant, gentle. And I really think this DSP needs showing off rather than being used as a back drop.
It makes me think of sunny afternoons when I was a child, when the summer seemed to stretch endlessly. I was a child in the 70s and 80s, and those summer days really were a page straight out of an Enid Blyton book. Picnics were packed up in baskets, with cakes and a rare treat of a bottle of fizzy pop. My Mum is a remarkable woman, and would always make sure to include napkins, blankets, proper glasses, and all the extra ‘elegant’ bits that stop a picnic being squashed-sarnies-and-crushed-crisps and make it a lovely meal in the sunshine.
