Stay Possitive

Hello and welcome to my blog and my post for the challenge over at Scrapping Clearly on Facebook.

 As soon as I looked at the challenge I was inspired by the blues in the moodboard and the words I needed to use - Stay Positive. It was so relevant to what we are all needing to do right now around the world. Sitting on my desk was some old photos of my son Harley swimming. He loves to have fun in the pool and I know he would love to go there with his friends. I knew the colours in the photo were perfect for the challenge and also the fact that I have been saying to both my boys to stay positive.

Now for the moodboard and my page.

Hello and welcome to my and my May post for Off The Rails. This month is a great mood board for you to get your mojo into. I must admit though I had a lot of trouble with this challenge as I don't do needle work. My mum did and I have a photo of her sewing but after hours of looking i couldn't find it. I then decided to do a page of my son Harley when he was at kinder doing a jigsaw puzzle. I have done a little stitching on the page with my journal pen.

I chose to use the colours from the mood board that are in the last photo along with the blue in the first one and basket in the second top photo as my inspiration.

Hello Crafty friends and welcome to my blog. What a year 2020 is shaping up to be and it wont be long and we will be halfway through the year.So for it has been filled with love, sadness, stress and isolation and that is just a few of the descriptions of it so far. I know it will get better and for those out their sad, lonely and hurting know my heart and prayers are with you.

The boys had so much fun this day at the Ballarat Botanical Gardens in all the fallen Autumn leaves. If only I could turn back time and do days like this all over again but I have to let them grow and live with the memories and the photos.
