Jumpers and Jazz and the cold weather that comes with it

The middle of July is the start of the annual Jumpers and Jazz festivities in Warwick. Every year I can remember the decorations have been put on the trees and it has not even been 24 hours, and it has rained. Well, nothing out of the ordinary this year, either, but I did get a few photos before the decorations got wet ! What a miserable day, though ! LOL This might give you an idea ...

It felt like it was going to snow any minute ... anyway I managed to get these photos ...

That is the Post Office behind the statue in the second last photo. The past mayor always gets a scarf and beanie, every year :)

The "white" items are from Leslie Park, and were taken on Monday, when it was just a little warmer, and brighter, between the clouds :)

More photos to follow , hopefully tonight, after tea ...

For now,
Deb :)

New month - new Chill-ing Challenges for JUNE

What a way to make you feel right at home... cold and overcast outside, and new challenges to do, with a complete kit, if you finish them all, called CHILL !!!

Here is a preview ...

What a pretty kit, though ! Look at all those papers !

Come on, open up your Scrapping program, and get scrapping !

Here is my page for the Colour Challenge. We got to download a free kit for this one ;) It's Anne-Marie's birthday, this month, and she likes all things bright, and the colours of the Rainbow, so that's what her kit is called, to use for this challenge :)

And here is my layout for the Scraplift Challenge. One of the sights I saw in the glitzy Crown Casino, in Melbourne, aah, but all that glitters is not gold ;)
