Hello there! Autumn is really in the air at least here in Finland so it’s good to think back to the summer and spring.

Near our house there was this unbelievable meadow style piece on top of a rock. The whole bolder was covered with pansies! They started blooming during the spring and lasted long into the autumn. My girls loved climbing up there and picking up some of the flowers to take along home. The title of the page is “Swinglish” – Finnish and Swedish mixed together as the place got named really quickly “orvokkibergen”. The beginning of the name is Finnish meaning pansy and the end Swedish meaning mountain.

I chose the colors for the page from the photo and mixed the green from “Lost and Found” to purple from “Soulmates”. There’s also a few details from the “Yuletide” collection.
