Reflections

Good morning all.
Ouch!! I got more than I bargained for yesterday when I asked hubby to bring me in some rosemary to add to the risotto I was making for tea...I'm happily chopping away when I felt a stabbing pain in my wedding finger...I'd been stung by a wasp!! It was absolute agony and luckily I got my wedding ring off before my finger swelled up. It took several hours and a dose of antihistamines before the swelling went down and it's still sore today :(

A layout to share today using an unusual photo taken by the official photographer at my nephew's wedding earlier this year. The reflection is my sister, niece and her partner and the sunglasses belong my brother in law.

Created in Craft Artist using Believe in Love from Indigo Dreams and the photo mask for the November photo mask challenge at Gotta Pixel. The polka dot paper is from Peaches and Cream available at My Memories.

Lunch with a View

Good morning all.

Beavering away quietly in the background with the wedding stationery, I'll hopefully finish the daytime invites today - they'll just need the inserts added, a menu printed and the RSVP's made after that - none of which is onerous.

Sharing another double layout from Venice today. I have moved LUNCH since I wrote this post but as I was battling a migraine at the time I haven't exported the new image yet.

On the Wings of Love....

Good morning all.

A quiet afternoon was planned yesterday since all the children were out. First hiccup in the works was having to get a photo of daughter's passport to her for ID so she could get into the pictures, then I ended up having to cook a roast dinner as after Tesco had delivered the fridge was overflowing! Can't remember the last time I cooked a Sunday roast...it turned out a tad rare but at least the leftovers won't be overcooked today! Then I remembered I had a DT card to make so it turned out more peaceful than quiet.

Another double page layout to share today from our Venice trip, these were some of the first pictures I took with my new camera and I was quite surprised how well they turned out.

One Moment

Good morning all. 

Well yesterday turned out just as forecast and we had a glorious day of sunshine here, I wonder what today will bring! Hubby managed to get some stain onto our decking and I had a play with my camera in the garden....it does take some fabulous pictures and I'm really pleased I bought it.

I'm sharing another double page layout of Venice today. Two of the smaller photos are the views out of the windows from inside the bridge itself.

Celebrate September

Good morning all.

Sorry I've not been to visit you all yet, been struggling with a migraine for the past few days (thank goodness it didn't strike last week!) which along with my lack of land legs wasn't good...we went grocery shopping on Saturday and if I hadn't had the trolley to hold onto I think I'd have been flat out!!

Template Dreams has new papers and elements called "Celebrate September" which co-ordinate with all the other BYO packs available this month at Scrap Takeout. All packs are priced at $1.00 until the end of the month. The kit was perfect to scrap some of my holiday photos.
