time quickly to share a floor space for WOYWW with Julia and the gang
I didn't go out anywhere on Tuesday to give my legs a rest (and the camera!)
this one is "pretty in pink"
bit random on this one..
of course I didn't make a start on the dreaded Christmas cards (it was only a very vague idea, the weather was much too nice to stay in!)
guess I will have to soon though.
I'll visit as many desks as I can before work, the rest once I get home.

I don't blame you not yet starting on Christmas cards Helen. Loved seeing the pictures from your gallivanting this week on FB. Are you going back to work for a rest lol? Have a great week. Sarah #5
Don't blame you for making the most of the weather - and being able to visit such stunning places!
Happy WOYWW :)
Claire, no. 1
It was fun joining you on vacation. I am saddened it had to come to an end, but I know you have to get back to work so you can buy those stencils, stamps, and inks you desperately NEED!
Morning Helen. Sounds like you had just as busy a week as I have - just different. Well done for all those lovely sounding visits - and even a bit of crafting as well. Hope your first day back isn't too arduous!
Take care. God bless.

Hi Helen. There's always something to distract from Christmas but I have made a Masterboard so you never know. Love the journal pages. Have a lovely WOYWW and thanks for the visit to mine. Angela x13x
I enjoyed your days off too! Wonderful photos as usual, but at this time of year the sun does make such a difference huh. No blame from me for not staying at home and making cards, much too nice for that. See on week’s where ‘pretty in pink’ is a prompt, I could just about cope, but this week’s is too random for me...I need direction!! Hope the work routine isn’t too painful to ease back into really!
I enjoyed your holiday pics too - Hampton Court especially looked amazing! That Pretty in Pink journal page is interesting and quite a departure for you!!
Hugs LLJ 6 xxx
Hi Helen, been enjoying all the photos! Hampton Court is on our to-do list. I'd really struggle with 'pretty in pink,' lol. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #8 X
Love your pages Helen but why did you have to remind me that I need to start on those C Cards? You and I are always later than most folks so we are both in good company LOL. Maybe November?
Hugs, Neet 7 xx
Hi Helen, just had a lovely trip to Kew, London and Hampton Court with the help of your fabulous photos. I particularly liked the salvias, the autumn foliage and the pumpkin patch. Hope your first day back to work has gone well for you although I imagine there was a lot to catch up on. Have a wonderful week. Elizabeth x #17
Oh my... what beautiful photos. Frame worthy!! Thanks for sharing such a lovely vacation. I like the macro shots. So pretty. Makes me want to find my camera. I am too lazy to use it and end up using my iPhone. Thank you so much for sharing! Have a great first day back to work!

I tend to leave my CC to the last minute - have to get through October and spooky things first! very interesting journal pages! Have a great week, Lindart #25
I haven't thought about Christmas cards yet either! I love your pretty in pink journal page. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week. God bless, Caro x (#29)

Thanks for your visit earlier, I enjoy Steam Engines but I need to craft!
I have loved all your photos, thank you so much for sharing.

I'm not a pink person but I like that Pretty in Pink page! Not overdone to my way of thinking. The other page looks pretty cool, too! Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Boo for going back to work. Journal pages are looking good. Dorlene #26
Oooo what interesting looking pages!
Thank you for visiting me with that nice comment today.

You say random, I say wow - the "nobody said it was easy" already looks amazing to me (yeah, I'm a sucker for crackle!)... Glad to hear you had a sunshiny time off - we've got glorious weather here in CZ too... only one day in the last ten without sunshine and completely blue skies. With the trees just starting to turn, it's beautiful.

Good to get out and about before it gets too cold, Helen! I love your two pages, especially the second one with its intresting textures and contrasts. Great work! Thank you for your visit, and for your good wishes for my health problems, and I'm so glad you like my boxy bits!
Happy belated WOYWW,
Shoshi #15
Pages look great Helen! I really like the second one!
I do like the page background on the last photo.. intriguing! The weather was nice here too, I can imagine you don't feel like creating X-mas cards then (I must confess, I NEVER feel like making Xmas cards!) Thanks for your visit earlier this week - my journal spread was indeed all about Autumn, you saw that well! Happy belated woyww and a hug from Holland. Marit #10
Cool breeze but sunshine again here - not bad for my birthday week! xx Jo

Hi Helen, of course I laughed about the Christmas cards... ( which is why I make them all year off and on since they are mostly one of a kind) I think the dread for me is the idea that everyone should have the "same" card. ~Stacy #30
Loving the pretty in pink layout! Off to find your other posts :)
Hi Helen, I know what you mean, how did we sudenly get to another October?! It really looks like October out there today as well, though on the plus side, I picked up a bag of walnuts and some quinces :o) Love the look of your journal pages, I haven't tried any of France's challenges yet, but they do look really inspiring. Have a great weekend. Annie C #14
These both look fabulous Helen! I really will get around to seeing your photos soon! Chrisx
