This is a perfect opportunity to start the summer (if you are on northern hemisphere) with a happy, 

cheerful project!   And if you are heading into Winter, what better way to remember the light & 

airy days gone by...Here is our mood board creator - Veera - sharing a little about herself...

"Hello! My name is Veera Saarivuo & I live in Finland, near our capital,
Helsinki, together with my husband. About 2,5 years ago I found the
 wonderful world of scrapbooking.  To me it is all about documenting 
memories together with life's little details. I find inspiration from my
 friends, family, our vacations abroad, but also from my everyday life.
 My style is clean & simple with white space combined with delicate 
details.  Find me here on my blog, instagram, YouTube or Facebook"
