AND I WILL BURY MY SOUL IN A SCRAPBOOK ~ BERRY71BLEU CHALLENGE

Good Evening, 

I was looking for a challenge to inspire me and thought I would join in with the one at Berry71bleu with the lovely mood board this month


This is my take on the challenge. I took the inspiration from the colours, Browns/golds and crimsons. Also the old world feel to the mood board

And I will bury my soul in a Scrapbook


This is a photo of my Grandmother on my Mothers side "Ma" with one of my cousins (her Grand daughter).

 I had a lovely day today with my scrapbooking class and every now and then I go crazy and cook , (not that often, it is usually sandwiches) But today we had gem cakes as well :)


I inherited my Mum's Gem irons. Mum made the best Gem Cakes ever , so one day I thought I should have a go at cooking them. They are pretty good, but I don't think they will ever be as good as my Mum's.
Thank you for calling by, please let me know you were here. 
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Love , Peace and Happiness
Mary x

Hi Mary, I hope your weekend is going well... You do such lovely vintage layouts with your old precious photos.. This looks wonderful, love that floral background paper, and the frame around the photo and the lace and clusters... And the cakes look yummy, I am sure your cakes are are good as your mums, but we will always remember our Mums cooking as being the best because of the love they put into their dishes!
