I am the Wheel of Fortune!

You are The Wheel of Fortune

Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of
intoxication with success

The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.

New size... new layouts.

I'm a bit of a stick in the mud as far as Scrapbooking sizes go, so when Deanne challenged me on our blog Rosie-Dee's Challenge to use a different size to my 12"x12" norm, I rose to it and came up with not just one, but TWO layouts!!!!



The first one is of my gorgeous daughter, Freya which was taken at nursery school when she was about 3 years old. Already such a gorgeous little girl, I think you'll agree?!



The second photo of Karen and myself was taken when she came up from Cornwall with her hubby, Jeremy, to stay locally. We took them to Burghley House in Stamford which is where their rose petal wedding confetti came from. The sun shone on such a lovely day for us. The roses were in full bloom and oh, so fragrant too! What you can't tell from the photo is that, although Karen is taller than I am, she is crouching down to get nearer to my height!!!!

Fineshade Woods

We had intended going to Westonbirt Arboretum this weekend for some autumnal camera fun, but as the weather report was such a pile of pants, we saved the diesel and stayed at home instead.

The weather wasn't too bad today, so we armed ourselves with wellies/walking boots/hats/scarves/waterproofs/warm coats along with 4 cameras and headed out to Fineshade Woods, part of what was the ancient Rockingham Forest.

Freya looked absolutely stunning in her blue coat with pink hat and scarf that she was our model for the day (no change to her posing for the cameras there then LOL!)

Just check out that cheeky grin and those fantastic wellies!



This is a full on action shot - caught midair jumping into the pile of leaves...





You noticed how Jacob doesn't pose for many pics????!!!! Well, that's because he's very happy to be behind the lens of his own camera these days. With Will's expert guidance he's getting very good too. We're very proud of him.

Design Team

I received THE most gorgeous set of stamps in my Debbi Moore Design Team kit yesterday. I can't wait to start playing with them. You can see the stamps {here}.

I'll show you the results when I have made some up.

DCM - Forever Autumn

I've not taken part in a DCM dare for what seems like years and years! So, as Autumn is pretty much the most photogenic season, I'm back. Hopefully I'll be back every week if I can. I loved taking part when I did them a while back.

Anyway, Sues challenge is as follows:

Forever Autumn.

I decided on this one after hearing the Justin Haywood song of the same name playing on the radio. I couldn’t get it out of my mind and kept singing it as I was working.

So now I’m daring you to make a card that depicts Autumn.
It can be an Autumn scene or it can be something completely different but using a palette of Autumn colours……the choice is yours!

I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if a few of you are singing along by the time you’ve finished either, I know some of the DT were!



The papers are Dovecraft. Epoxy stickers are SEI. Sentiment is Karen Foster. Self adhesive felt came from Craft Obsesions.

Cards

Just a couple of cards that I made for birthdays last week. I can blog them now as I know they've both been received.

This was for our friend Carl in Newcastle who we've not seen for far too long! Happy Birthday mate! xx


This card was for an order for my boss' son's friend. Hope Grace liked her card.
