Stamps Ahead

This layout was taken at Chatsworth House Farm shop, in the Derbyshire Dales, on a bright and sunny day in July.  Unfortunately, for us not many sunny days during our 5 weeks in UK, so really put on a summer dress to celebrate.  I have just received a beautiful dress (not the one in the photograph above) I ordered from lovenelli.com.au  and included was this wonderful card - just perfect for adding to this layout. The produce in the cafe and shop was from the Chatsworth Estate, a wonderful way to spend a lunch. After lunch we went on further to Chatsworth House with more from there to come. Thank you for looking and I hope you find some colour in your day today.  Margaret

We are expecting record high winter temperatures here today, so why not a bright layout. This is a photo of my sister taken on our cruise in April this year.  My sister is currently overseas and she found a scrapbooking magazine in France and posted it back to me.  She had handwritten a note on a layout she found in the magazine - see below.  (note the other handwriting is mine translating the ingredients for the layout) So I accepted her challenge and my layout is the result.  I used Dylusions Paints and pages from an old dictionary on which to apply the paints.  My stash provided everything else. Thanks for looking, have a bright day, Margaret :)
