It's the Simple things that make the Magical Moments we Remember

 Good Morning

Its cloudy overcast and the humidity is sitting at 96% so it feels a lot hotter than it is.  On the Bureau of Metrology it shows storms coming in I don't want more rain.

This morning hubby went to pull a pair of good trousers from the wardrobe and its cover in mould and so are most of his other pants. I found him a pair from another wardrobe to wear. He said he go through it went he comes home.

Today I am sharing a layout I'm entering it into the  "Scrap with Attitude" face book group

 This month the challenge is for you to share those family places that hold such special places in our family and our hearts. Use the sketch provided, Journaling and the have a Try element: embellishments that have a heritage feel to them.

I have scrap my father in law caravan, my husband spent many happy holidays with his family and cousins, we used it on our honeymoon. the grandkids sleep in it when there was to many people staying with Nana and Pop . It gave us shade on those hot days under the grape vine.

The photo's I have used are from the 1970. the last holiday my husband had before we where married.

Create your own art in Lockdown

 Morning all 

Such a beautiful day, the sun is shinning and the birds are chirping. The smell of Jasmine wafting thru the front door.

Hubby had  gone to get the groceries whilst I am sitting at my craft space (dinning room table) writing this up, with the sunshinning through and Coffee beside me.

Yesterday I had an appointment with the Disease Specialist about my infection, he wants another month on antibiotics as not quite stable,  but am feeling like my old self again which is good, not scrapping as many pages as I get really tired quickly, but at least a few

Yesterday I thought I would attempt to combine two challenges " Sketches in Thyme" week 3 sketch and "Scrap it with Attitude " Face book challenge.  Scrap it with Attitude  have one mandatory item each month which is journalling on your layout,  mine is hidden , written on the tag. They also like you to try a new technique each month. This month I have used Dimensional magic on my title words to make it stand out. I find it difficult to use and get it everywhere and it sticks to the paper, then trying to get it off ruin my chipboard.

 

I love the multi photo layout Sketch."Sketches in Thyme" have use.
