Bridge - 365+1

Summer Dust - DDD Collab

It's nice to look back at a beautiful view on a beautiful day when it's pouring with rain and blowing a gale outside!  This photograph was taken on Drummond Hill looking down on Kenmore and the bridge over the River Tay.  As I had a little more time today I went looking for some inspiration and found it in Scrap 365 May 2012,  where I scrap-lifted a layout called Cherish by Morag Cutts.

Summer Pleasures - 365+1

Snickerdoodle Designs - Outside my Window, Scraplift from Anna Bjorklund in Scrap365 July 2012

Every year we have swallows nesting in our sheds on the farm. Summer begins when they arrive from South Africa,  I know they make a mess, but I love to see them popping their heads over the top of the nest and then finally flying off.  At the end of the summer they are all lined up on the electricity and telephone wires, waiting to head off south for the winter.

I managed to catch these two in the nest, but they weren't keen on me taking photos and gave me a real fright by suddently flying out over my head!

I'm on a bit of a catch up, so this is my layout for Wednesday 15th June, Same but Different.  Here is Rebecca reading the copy of Scrap 365 that I picked up on Wednesday.  I used one of the layouts in the magazine to inspire this one.

Future - 365+1

Julie Marie - Bailey,  MandyMade - cardstock, Connie Prince - Spring is my thing, Sketch inspiration - Morag Cutts, Scrap 365, May 2012

I was struggling to think what to have for the prompt 'future'.  In the end I took a photo of the river cruise we have booked in the south of France for next year - in the future!

Grunge - 365+1

Sherwood Studio - Thrift, Maya de Groot -Green House Alpha, Designs by Mozz - Forever, Snickerdoodle Designs - Outside my Window

I love the grungy look, I chose a photograph of an old Lister two stroke engine which we had on the farm for  many years but sold on to someone who would renovate it and return it to it's former glory.  The layout was inspired by a layout by Emy Buxton in Scrap 365, May 2012.

Light - 365+1

Kit: Family Tree by Kate Hadfield, M Godin, R Young for Lilypad

Today's prompt is Light.  This is a silhouette of my husband with the light behind him.  I was inspired in this digital scrapbook page by a layout by Katy Fox in the May 2012 issue of Scrap 365.
