Autumn at Cards Galore Scrapbook Challenge blog

Well the big day has arrived, and here is my my very first entry as a DT member on CG. The prompt was Autumn. We were asked to use item from Stamping Dragon Designs. I came on to the team late so I only had the one kit to work with.  I have used 3 backing papers,and brads for the corners, from the Vintage heritage kit.

The sponsor this month is Stamping Dragon Designs 

The prize is a £5.00 voucher for their online shop.

This challenge runs until the 15 November and is open to paper and digital scrappers

So please pop over to Cards Galore Scrapbook Challenge and have a look and please join in.

Hello everyone I am really thrilled to have received two awards from a fellow blogger Trudi (TrudiScrumptious), The Sunshine Award and The Lovely Blog Award. (These are the first I have ever received)
 Both of these awards come with some rules:
 I am to publicly thank the people who gave them to me. I am to share some information about myself
I am to nominate some of my favorite blogs
 I am to comment on their blogs to let them know I’ve awarded them.
The One Lovely Blog award asks me to share 7 facts about myself while the Sunshine Award has some specific questions for me to answer.
The Sunshine Award questions will effectively cover the 7 facts about me.

Favorite color: Blue
Favorite animal: Baby Elephant
Favorite number: 13
Favorite drink: Brandy & Lemonade
Facebook or Twitter: definitely Facebook
Good book or good movie: Book
Giving or getting gifts: Giving especially to family and close friends
My passion: Without a shadow of a doubt it is my family
Favorite day: with my son and daughter on their own.
Favorite flower: I don’t have a favourite I love all flowers.

 Well, hopefully I haven't bored you, now it's my turn to nominate these awards to some bloggers that have not only inspired me, but also supported me when I've needed it and we all need a bit of that at sometimes, so without much further ado I announce:

2. http://jayellecards.blogspot.co.uk/
3. http://doodlesandscrapsofme.blogspot.co.uk/
 I have given these 3 lovely ladies these awards because. Of many reasons.
Jane for giving me the 1st chance as a DT member. She does so much when not well.
 Barbara For her crafty inspiration. She also pushed me to do a blog.
 Janet for being Janet.
Barbara Janet and Elaine ( who doesn't have a blog for me to award.) Have been more than friends to me over the last few years. They have helped me through some unbelievably bad times. They are more like sisters, and I love them loads xxx

Blind Challenge

Well I accepted this challenge. Even though I didn't know what I was doing. Maya, one of the DT for Cards Galore Scrapbooking set a mini challenge. Which anyone can enter. No prize given, just for fun. I decided I would us an old Photo of my Mother and Father in Law, on their front step in Buncrana. I hope you like this one. Please leave me a comment. xx

Wingy Thingy

The challenge this month in the Cupboard Trilogy is anything with wings. Elaine took some gorgeous photo' of birds of prey. Even though I don't like birds I have to say this is a beautiful photo. Hope you all like the Digital scrapbook page I have made with it.
