Twelve, Twelve, Twenty Twelve.

I usually miss these significant days but I am fortunate enough to have the day off work today. I plan on spending my day here, catching up and writing cards, all things crossed.

I would like to share days one to twelve of my Advent project. I was inspired by Rinda to make my pages in the shape of a pennant, or bunting as my son said!
I’ll only show you a couple of the picture pages so as not to bore the pants off you. When I didn’t have a card large enough to be a complete pennant I made a collage. I will punch holes at the top of the journalling page and bind it on two rings. So far I have followed Shimelles JYC prompts but who knows where the days of December will take me.

Happy 12.12.12.

All the elements on my pages are Katie Pertiet’s

Twelve on the Twelfth on the Fourteenth

….and a Collage of some January skies

I wanted to post 12 pictures on the 12th of February and as luck would have it I was away from home and took 12 to put into a collage. Had I been at home I am sure I wouldn’t have twelve pictures to put together!
I also wanted to make a collage of some pictures for January to link over here but my collage maker has been playing up for a number of days, in fact it is still not letting me put a colour on the background of the collage this evening, but hey, I like grey, grey is nice.

This is my 12 for the 12th

We stayed at an arts & crafts centre on the Isle of Wight called Seahorses and they were represented in so many art forms all over the house and grounds.
Huge fossil on the Craft Barn
Beautiful Mask in the grounds
Fort Redoubt was open today. This was the view from the bridge across to the fort
I placed a mosaic piece on the wonderful mosaic that has been commissioned to raise funds for the Lifeboats
Lunch in the Buddle
Mosaics at Freshwater Bay
Goodbye family, ’til next time
Boats from the boat
We didn’t see any Otters even though we drove very slowly
Just snow on the hills in Wiltshire
Easy tea when we got home, my favourite, Stroganoff.

Just a lovely weekend.

and here are my January Skies

I am linking this to Rebecca at simple as that for her Month in Photo’s challenge

Wishing you all Happy Valentines Day if you celebrate and Happy Tuesday if you don’t. xx
