At the Zoo from Whispy's D'zines

When our eldest grandson Tyler was only five years old we took him to Colchester Zoo and he had such fun feeding the animals, especially the goats. I just love the colours of the AT THE ZOO KIT from Whispy's designs and that orange and brown sunburst paper was just perfect for my layout.


Here is the kit preview. I just love all the little animals.


I used one of the WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND TEMPLATES from Throwing Some Scraps Around.

Anchors Away from Whispy's D'zines

I just love nautical kits, especially those with sailboats in them. Whispy's D'zines' lovely kit ANCHORS AWAY was just perfect for these photos of our youngest grandson James having fun on the beach at Ruislip Lido.




I also used the GOOD TIMES TEMPLATES from The Cherry On Top.

Star Spangled from Whispy's D'zines

When I saw the beautiful colours in STAR SPANGLED from Whispy's D'zines I knew just the photo I would use for this. The colours in our grandson James's coat and hat went perfectly with the wonderful papers. The photo was taken at Ruislip Lido after a journey on the train, while we were waiting in the queue to see Santa.


Here are the previews of STAR SPANGLED.



The template I used is from the pack of YOU CAN GO YOUR OWN WAY TEMPLATES from Throwing Some Scraps Around.


Bye for now.

Bloom Templates from TCOT

I love these beautiful BLOOM TEMPLATES from The Cherry On Top and just had to use one of them to show off this lovely photo of my Mum which was taken just a few months before she died. I still miss her. I really love the way the bouquet of flowers turned out.


Here is the Template preview.


For my layout I also used the TAKE ME AWAY COLLECTION from Throwing Some Scraps Around. This lovely Collection has my favourite colours and I just love the flowers that I used to make up my bouquet.


I'll be back soon with another layout using a photo of our grandson James waiting for Santa at Ruislip Lido.

Indian Summer from Whispy's D'zines

When I saw this lovely INDIAN SUMMER KIT from Whispy's D'zines I thought that I would need to use an Autumn photo but my son-in-law had sent me a lovely photo of our grandson James sliding down a hill at Paulton's Park. He really looks as if he is enjoying himself.


Here are the previews of INDIAN SUMMER.



I also used one of the SOFTLY SWEET TEMPLATES that are being given free by Dagi's Temptations.


Well that's all for today. I will be back soon with a layout using the new BLOOM TEMPLATES from The Cherry On Top and the gorgeous TAKE ME AWAY COLLECTION from The Cherry On Top.

2Dye4 Templates from TCOT

I just love the 2DYE4 TEMPLATES from the Cherry On Top and I couldn't resist making a layout with the heart shaped one. I used a photo of my husband and myself that was taken at my cousin's wedding in the early 1970s.


Here is a preview of the 2DYE4 TEMPLATE PACK.


You have already seen the layout that I made with the 2 photo template and the I LOVE FALL COLLECTION from Throwing Some Scraps Around. I will have to see if I can use the other two templates in the pack to make layouts.

I also used the BRIGHTER DAYS COLLECTION from Throwing Some Scraps Around. I just love the colours in the textured papers and they were just perfect for my layout.


I'll be back soon with a layout created with INDIAN SUMMER from Whispy's D'zines.

I Love Fall Collection from TSSA

Last year for our grandson James's birthday we spent a few days in Eastbourne. The first day it absolutely poured with rain but we still enjoyed ourselves. The next day it was dry and we spent the day at the beach and my husband took these photos of the beautiful Autumn sunset.


For my layout I used the I LOVE FALL COLLECTION from Throwing Some Scraps Around which you can find at Scrappy Sisters and in her Etsy Store.




I also used the 2DYE4 TEMPLATES from The Cherry On Top.


I'll be back soon with another layout using the 2DYE4 TEMPLATES and the BRIGHTER DAYS COLLECTION from Throwing Some Scraps Around.

From Another Angle Templates from TSSA

I made a really cute layout using the FROM ANOTHER ANGLE TEMPLATES from Throwing Some Scraps Around. The photos are of our youngest grandson James and his Dad cooling down with an ice cream at the beach on the Isle of Wight.


Here is the preview of the FROM ANOTHER ANGLE TEMPLATES.


I also used the GINGERBREAD LADIES COLLAB: ICE CREAM for my layout. It was just so appropriate for my photos and I just love the colours.


Whisp's D'zines is the Spotlight Designer at GoDigitalScrapbooking from 8 to 15 September and she will be giving away her INDIAN SUMMER DAILY DOWNLOAD KIT during that period. Don't forget to go to her store each day to collect a new part of the kit.


In the meantime you can find a coordinating INDIAN SUMMMER FREEBIE on Whispy's Facebook Page. If you download, don't forget to say 'Thank You'.


Here is the layout I made using the INDIAN SUMMER FREEBIE using some photos shared with me by my friend Kathy Brandt.



There are just two papers and five elements in this cute little kit but it was certainly enough to made a lovely layout. I used the lace trim to create the frame for my berry photo.

See you soon with another layout using a fabulous new kit from The Cherry On Top.
