LONDON IN SPRING ~ CHALLENGE YOURSELF

Hello ! Today I would like to share my take on the challenge at Challenge Yourself . This month it is a moodboard challenge



I chose the SpringBreak square, although I have to say I had to go searching for a photo. I have photo's of beautiful blossoms, but none with me in them. ( Maybe I should have chosen the beach prompt, but same problem , I take lots of photo's of scenery, but of course I am taking the photo, so can hardly be in them lol. 
But not to be defeated , I  ended up chosing this photo of me at Kensington Gardens in 2015 , and it would have been Spring time in Europe.



I have used the Kaiser Wildflower collection. I don't know if it is just me , but I do find pastel's hard to photograph.



I am also joining in with Marta's #52 Cafe Cards , which is , Marta gives a prompt for every letter in the alphabet. The prompt for S was Spring, so this is the tag I created which also inspired the layout.


I hope you pop over to the Challenge Yourself blog, they are a lovely bunch of gals and I like to support their challenges.
I would also like to share with you some just because layouts, that I don't think I have previously shared.

This one because I have always loved this photo of my second eldest playing in the Autumn leaves, he's just so darn cute !



This one was for a challenge over at Soul Scrappers




Another Soul Scrappers Challenge



And this one a A 2 Z Scraplets DT layout

Just because

This one of my daughter and her bestfriend was for one of my classes I taught.
So if you are still with me Thank You for calling by.
Wishing you a happy weekend doing what you enjoy.
Love, Peace and Kindness

Oh my gosh Mary! I know I haven't been here for a while, but SEVEN layouts! You remind me of the Ever ready Bunny ! You took us all over the world too, from London in Spring, back to Oz in the Autumn leaves to see your cute wee boy, dashed off to Interlaken for a long weekend, then you were back home for the "Never give up" page? before another break in beautiful Tuscany. I must say my absolute fave is the flower power one when you were wild and free and we wrap up with a gorgeous page about your DD and her BFF. Phew! I need a cuppa, a Bex and a good lie down! Seriously though Mary, I'm in awe of your output and wish I was as quick a scrapper as you are. You must be a very decisive woman. xo
