Summer Moon

Morning everyone 
I do hope your new week has started well. 
Wow, it is also a new month 
We are now in July….

So that means that we have a new Lavinia Challenge 
And our new theme is 
Summer Moon 

Now you can interpret that so many different ways 
Here is some inspirations for you 



Remember the winner is chosen at random and wins £40 voucher to spend at Lavinia 

I started off by creating my summer moon…a vibrant orange moon 
I then added some stamping 




Some scenery, a moody summer sky 





Next some foliage 



and finally those all important finishing touches , 
Highlights and shadows. 

I do hope you will enter the challenge…

Busy day here 
Lots of jobs to tick of my list 

So I’m off now, but will be back later with my 
Monday catch up video 

Enjoy your day 
Much love and hugs

Hi everyone 
Thanks so much for popping in today 
I hope you have had a wonderful weekend. 

As you know on Wednesday we went off on our travels 
Thursday was my first day teaching at Country View Crafts 

Thanks so much Susan for inviting me,,.

I love your shop, your home, and you , 
Such a wonderful lady 

When we arrived I noticed some Poland bantams…oh my goodness 
They brought back so many memories 
I used to show this breed of bantams…I just love them.
That was such a good omen 





Susan was so welcoming,,.she had even got everyone an Inky Binky…with our initial embroidered on it. 





It was a fabulous day, 
Such lovely ladies 
A yummy lunch 
I loved every minute of it 





Karl picked me up and we went to the campsite at St Neots , about 20minutes away 
A wonderful campsite , and we are definitely going back .


Friday was a new set of crafters…and even more,,.we needed another table








More lovely ladies, we laughed, crafted, and had a brilliant time. 




Thanks so muchSusan  for inviting me…

I must say I did make a few purchases before I left,
Do check out the website 


Saturday was a day off , 
The sun shone, Karl , Eric and me had a lovely time 
We just chilled 




Back home today and washer on, 
All ready for another busy week
