The Giant's Hedge

I came across The Giant's Hedge on a wander round Kilminorth Woods near Looe in Cornwall. According to a local rhyme, "Jack the Giant, having nothing to do, built a hedge from Lerryn to Looe." It's really a 6th century earthwork which has somehow survived to the present day, and was probably the work of a local chieftain.

The photos are very green and brown, and I had the perfect leaf print paper to go with them, but I needed some brighter colours too. Most of the challenges from For the Love of Pretty Paper's 'Scrap in Colour' cybercrop have been colour-based including one which linked certain personality traits with different colours and asked us to pick the one which best matched us. Mine was yellow, and I paired it with red as looking good with the yellow and brown.

My page design is a scraplift of one of Shimelle Laine's pages in her A Most Magical Scrapbook class, which originally ran in 2017 but I am still putting it to good use.
