WOYWW #452 - Hat and Photo

I actually made the 270 mile round trip to my Uncle's Funeral in Birmingham (I live in Surrey) so on my desk is my funeral hat (was bought for a wedding originally but has been to numerous funerals since) and the photo my cousin produced of me aged 5yrs in 1969. Also a quickly drawn family tree, so nice to meet up with family again.

  

I received my ATC SWAP from another desker Cindy and she enclosed a spare WOYWW5 ATC too - LOL. Double Delight.

I made a second ATC SWAP as "fairy" for one member who was unable to do one this month. I also made the cat card.

 


Oh and a couple of scrapbook pages. One to end my 13th album and the other to start my 14th.

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

  PS It is a Blue Moon today.

    So sad to have to travel for a funeral. My condolences to your and your family. Love your hat. It looks quite a lot like one my Mother owned that I do believe is in my closet now.

    Have a great day!! ~Sandy from Texas #31

    BJ, so sorry for your loss! Love your hat, but sorry you had such an occasion to wear it! Blessings for peace during this time. I really like your scrap pages, too cute! I also love your swap goodies. I haven't entered a swap this year, I kind of miss doing that! Maybe I should reconsider, they are great fun! Blessings for the rest of your week! Felicia #29

    You’ve been busy! Love the ATCs again, these swaps certainly get you involved don’t they. Nice to be a fairy swapper too, very kind to take the weight of someone for a turn. visiting my Mum in Farnham is a 110 mile round trip for me a couple of times a week, it’s amazing how quickly they add up isn’t.
