Sunday Morning

Off for our regular Sunday walk this is chalkwell Beach. We really like this part of Southend for walking I think this will be where we go the most

Sunday Morning

Sunday morning again and off we went for our walk. It was cloudy when we left Rayleigh but it was lovely when we reached the beach, tide was in it and it was a bit blowy but very refreshing. Views was taken from the same spot looking both ways at Thorpe Bay

Made a couple of blank books for a neighbour she gives them as a gift to friends on their birthdays They are like a guest book, family and friend are asked to write in the book at the party and photos are added as well. On the inside back page I've included a pocket for a CD of photos of the event

Sunday Morning

Hasn't it been hot lately we went to the sea front early this morning and had a walk along the promenade the tide was out but there was a lovely breeze, we then sat up in the gardens overlooking the sea to get our breath back and have a coffee Its really nice early morning before it got too hot and the day trippers arrive.

Its been ages since my last post I don't know where the time goes. I made this card for the girl in work for her neice's 21st birthday I love the colours used. The patterned paper is Kay & Co and cut into strips and woven, the flowers are retro flowers from EK success punch
