Lunch with Dad

This turned out to be a very simple layout to make, but the simplicity is what I like about it.

Every week when I go visit my Dad we go out to eat.   He isn't ever very hungry but the special this week at one of the places we usually go to was an open face roast beef sandwich, and as soon as he
verified it came with mashed potatoes he wanted it.    For him could have been 3 meals but he loved it.

I used the November sketch at  "LET'S GET SKETCHY"  for this layout.

Here is the sketch I used.

1st ornament

I LOVE Christmas, but this is even a first for me.    We put up our tree yesterday.    I know, crazy isn't it?    It's a pre-lit tree so that is all we did to it yesterday, but today adding some colored lights to the white lights already there and then putting on the ornaments.    

Anyway I got this picture of our cat Rose who immediately climbed into the tree.   She hasn't done this since she was a kitten 6 years ago.   But I'm glad I got the picture because I think it makes a cute layout to start the season.

I used the Nov. 1st sketch #395 at  "SKETCHES IN THYME"  for the layout.

Here is the sketch.

Rainy Day

I'm happy to say I was asked to be a Guest Designer at  "LASTING MEMORIES" for the month of
November.     I'm going to have a lot of fun with the theme this month of Patterned Paper Prints.

Starting off the month the Print is  ----- "Polka Dots"     I used a full sheet of polka dot paper as my background for this one, but you can use as much or as little as you want just so we see those
Polka Dots.

Here is the link to "LASTING MEMORIES".

NOVEMBER THEME - PATTERNED PAPER PRINTS.

This week the print to use is Polka Dots.    Have fun and share your layouts with us and then 
come back next week for the the next print theme.

SCARY

 I posted the layout yesterday of my granddaughter and her Dad carving their pumpkin and now today

I made a layout of her last night after dark sitting with the pumpkin all lit up on their front porch.

For this layout I used Sketch #394 at  "SKETCHES IN THYME".      Check it out I used 7 different patterned papers on my layout.   I love patterned papers and when I get to mix them I love it more.

What was even more fun is that I used 5 different collections of Halloween paper.   Just give it a try sometime and see how you like to mix and match.

Carve the Pumpkin

My granddaughter and her Dad were busy yesterday afternoon carving a pumpkin.    She was all dressed up in a Halloween outfit for when she went to visit her Great Grandfather earlier in the day.
So I just love these pictures they took of her with the pumpkin and her cute outfit.

I'll be entering this layout at  "BITTEN BY THE BUG 2"   I used my favorite cartridge to cut these
pumpkins....Celebrate With A Flourish.

Are We There Yet?

When we all went to London to visit my daughter that was studying at Oxford, we used all modes of transportation and walked all over.   So in these pictures I have it all covered, in many trains, a bus, a plane to Paris to catch the train to Brussels and then Amsterdam, the boats in Amsterdam and a rental car to go to Stonehenge.   We didn't miss anything but bicycles.

I'm entering this layout in a challenge for travel and a challenge for using Icon patterned paper,  my whole background is camera icon paper
