Swimming at dawn with our new friends (and their faithful dogs) is our new golden hour of each day. For the "Golden Hour' challenge for the month of challenges Rachel and I are having fun running on our substack newsletter.

My sister and I. We had only one cousin, who we never saw (other side of the world). Do sometimes wonder if we missed by not having lots of siblings and cousins like DH, but then he felt he got lost in the chaos so swings and roundabouts I guess! Made for the 'Number it" challenge for the month...

My DH's grandmother, siblings and a very impressive rocking horse. Made for the Five Things challenge on my joint newsletter with Rachel Jefferies.

I am loving seeing all these amazing layouts created for the challenges! It was such a leap of faith for us (especially in the craziness of the run up to Christmas!) but seeing all this creativity makes it all worthwhile :)

Not long now!! See the Pixels, Paper & paint newsletter link in my siggy :-)

So elegant and delightful :-)

Such masterful use of the template. The black and white was a brilliant choice :-)

Such a wonderful page and beautiful winter scenes :-)

Thank you!
