WOYWW 892

 Happy Wednesday to all - another WOYWW has rolled around.  Head to Sarah's for the link and we'll all moan about the heat again!  I can't wait for autumn... 

I used the other set of Alison Bomber's stamps this time, the hydrangea set. 

coloured with the new pencils which I am still enjoying 

Kew on Saturday was colourful 

it was just before it got really hot again 

I was measuring the sunflowers....

and when walking through some knee-high grass decided I'd recreate a Flake advert from donkeys years ago (shame there were no poppies left)  

there's another one one the blog of me trying to get up... why is getting down always so much easier?! 

I've been watching lots of football from the World Cup and yes, stayed up till 2am to watch the England match on Monday morning. 

some of us met at Monica's for brunch at 10 - it was planned as either a celebration or a commiseration - luckily the former !

it did get very warm but the parasols helped.  

then it was off to work for the afternoon!  




I am planning on Kew on Saturday but it will doubtless be another short visit because it will still be nearly 30 again.

thanks for dropping by, happy WOYWW  and I hope you stay cool.  

WOYWW 474

Come on England.....
sorry,  I mean welcome to another WOYWW (writing this watching the World Cup on Tuesday night.)

journal page on the mat is last week's so far unfinished ALAD/ASAW page.. using my birthday neon paints...  loving them!  I will be toning down the page soon...

in the wicker basket below and left of the tv is the empty Kew gin box... obviously the bottle is in the fridge, that isn't empty yet!!  I love the box, it is very pretty and will be using it somehow for something... I have sampled the gin, it is very nice!
Wishing my American friends a very happy 4th of July.   Catch you at a desk near here very soon...

edited after the end of the game... woo hoo England won a penalty shoot out...
Plans for the weekend have now changed, was going to the Hampton Court Flower Show on Saturday but that's when we play next, so will go on Sunday so I can watch... and may, just may, squeeze in a quick trip to Kew on Saturday morning...   Happy days!
