Fabulous Fifties - OUAS June challenge

The June challenge for OUAS is to use the sketch provided and the theme is birthdays...  I created a layout based on the fact that my 2 sisters and I are now all in our Fifties... Yep I had the golden birthday in January,  and I used a photo of the 3 of us taken at my Birthday lunch in January... The journalling talks about how we are now the 'Golden Girls' as we are now all in our 50's, and I used the sketch like this.....



Oh yeah!!! the Fabulous Fifties!!!



and a close up of the journalling........



Well the rain is still coming down today, so if you cant beat em, join em!! I got my DD to get dressed and I took some rainy day photos!! hehe!!



I hope your day is great, even if the weather isnt!!

and thanks for any lovely comments too!!
