You should have arrived here from Jenny's blog.....if not......you may want to pop back to Jennifer to start the hop.
When Jennifer asked us to base a post on anything to do with an 'onwards and upwards' theme......I wasn't at all sure where to start!! But sorting through some holiday photos.....I realised just how often I point my camera 'upwards' to take shots of interesting looking,old buildings.....and a scrapbook page was soon taking shape.
I love old,distressed looking buildings.......and wanted the page to look a bit distressed as well.......so some stamping and masking with paints and inks......some gold rub-on.....torn paper and card......
Looking 'onwards' please do venture forward to Fay's blog....where I'm sure she'll have something wonderful for you.....and don't forget there are exciting things on Jennifer's blog ALL WEEEKEND.

I do too especially since doing Shimelle's class and Helena's meme. I love the colours you've used here Jackie and the distressed papers are perfect. The stamping really gives it an edge,

I like that torn pages look. It goes quite well with the distressed building. Your colors flow very well too.
