Love Your Pictures


I have decided to give myself a little summer treat and signed up for Shimelle's latest online class Love Your Pictures  We are not away during the summer holidays so I thought the daily prompts would give me a challenge each day.


On Shimelle's blog this weekend she asked us to do something with a photograph that we hadn't scrapped or displayed yet. Well I finally purchased a mount and a frame for this picture. I have had it enlarged to 8x12 and it looks great. It was taken in a coffee shop at Borough Market. I just loved the colour against the rainy sky. I think I am going to hang it in the bedroom. It look boudoirish!



Hope you have had a good weekend and enjoyed the tennis and the golf.

Cupcake Passion


Duncan and I had a little trip over to Swindon to a lovely shop called  Cupcake Passion.
These are our creations. We had to drive home quickly with them as it was really hot. The car temperature guage said 31'C.  We put the air conditioner on full blast!



We also called into Sparkle Dreams Duncan spent some of his pocket money on a kit to do some layouts of our Brighton trip.  He is just getting into scrapbooking and he has been taking lots of great photographs.

We have been on an elephant hunt!

The London Elephant Parade 2010 http://www.elephantparadelondon.org/
These are all the elephants that we saw yesterday, including the elusive Cloudia. I will add in all the names when I work out which is which!




























We will need to go back to London to hunt some more!

Brighton

We had a little trip to Brighton for half term. We had a real mix of weather but did see some brilliant sunshine on Wednesday.


My big boy and my small boy chilling on a deckchair.



I wonder what goes on in that complex mind. He is probably planning some naughtiness!


I love old fashioned deckchairs.


Duncan showing off on the trampoline.
I did take pictures of the other three but they were all trying to look cool and actually they just looked grumpy!
