Today I thought I would share some of my very latest layouts. I am
finding my way around the blogging world at the moment so not quite sure how this will turn out. I think I need to perfect photographing my layouts
but here I am just aiming to successfully upload some images to my
blog!

| Yes this is where I would rather be - behind the camera not in front! This one was taken in the lift at the spa hotel I went to with my daughter Amy for her 18th birthday girlie treat. |

| An
old photograph of me in my dancing days circa 1972. I didn't think I
was that happy with this layout when I finished it and yet looking at it
now I am quite pleased with it after all. Notice that even then I was happier to hide my face from the camera (I am second in from the right)! |

| Another old photograph, this time of my husband, around about the 1960's. I loved the carefree delight captured in this photo and scrapped it in my favourite colours so I am pleased with the outcome. After creating a 50th birthday album for him I have got a pile of photos from his younger days just waiting to be scrapped. His parents were very prolific photographers and I wish my parents had been the same. Sadly I can remember the film in their camera would last from holiday to holiday so photos of my childhood are few and far between! |

| I have lots of photos of my husband's 50th birthday celebrations with our oldest friends at The Belfry in Birmingham in June this year, so I am glad to have made a start on them. I was particularly pleased with the little file folders I cut on my Cricut and then I downloaded this free 'old typewriter' font from here that I really love and am sure I will be using again. http://www.dafont.com/old-typewriter.font |
So I have managed to upload some photos but not without issues - I have found it very hard to move things around and so it has taken me an age. I am hoping to become a bit more proficient at it otherwise I fear I will be put off.
Today I have been working from home which was nice because I was able to meet up with Michelanne at lunchtime for a coffee as she was taking her dear little Jimmy to have his vaccinations - I hope they didn't hurt him too much MA. It would be such a shame to have him upset as he is such a happy little soul.
Tomorrow I think I am going to be making some apple pies as the lawn is littered with apples so I will have a lovely autumny floury time in the kitchen.
