CHERISH EVERY MOMENT ~ ANOTHER FREAKING SCRAPPY CHALLENGE & MEMORIES ARE A TIMELESS TREASURE OF THE HEART ~ SOUL SCRAPPERS

Hello !
Well still catching up , so tonight I will do two posts in one. I am suffering from holiday hangover ( I want to still be there ) . I always feel restless when I come home from a holiday, as it makes me want to move near the beach. Oh well never mind, I still live in a beautiful part of the world (even if it is cold and doesn't have a beach)
Enough rambling
The current challenge over at AFSC is to use red on your layout
Cherish every moment


this is a photo of my daughter when she was little with my Dad. I hope you find time to join us in the challenge. Red always looks stunning on layouts I think.

Next I want to share a layout that I have done for the quote challenge at Soul Scrappers that I have set. The challenge is to do a layout with a quote of a special male in your life.

Memories are timeless treasures of the heart


My son captured this photo of my Dad taking a piece of wood up for the fire. A very common everyday memory of my Dad. He lived until 92 and slipping down to the wood heap was a good way to have a smoke, sitting on his block of wood , which now lives in my garden (even in his 90's he would get in trouble from Mum for smoking ( he smoked from the age of about 14 apparently) he did give it up several times in his later years.





Thanks for calling by , wishing you a fabulous week and hope you can join in the challenges.
Your comments are always appreciated
Love, Peace and Kindness

Oh yes I know the feeling you get when you get home after a beach holiday, I usually get it too. I hope you get to go away again soon! Your layouts are lovely, special photos, great embellishing and special quotes. Have a great week!
