Guess who's off to Ascot

Off to the Races Card Clare Charvill Graphic 45

Happy Friday to you and roll on the weekend :-) I've had a lovely week celebrating my birthday and creating this weekends double workshop project from those gorgeous 'Off to the Races' collection by G45.  I was down by Cheltenham Race Course last night and Harry tells me he's got himself a job and is off to work at Ascot Race Course tomorrow. Not sure he'll get time for a flutter on the 'orses though!  I have happy memories of going to the races with my Grandma when I was small, she loved a flutter on the horses and the dogs too.  From the papers I didn't use I created this really simple montage, mounting the figures on foam pads for a 3D effect and think it may be the cover of a scrapbook............ am musing over some ideas.  
After what panned out to be a fun but ridiculously hectic week I'm off down to Scotch Lodge Farm tomorrow for day one of our two day Graphic 45 'Be Lucky' album workshop. Looking forward to seeing you there bright and early for a 9am start!!!!!!!! if you're coming. Bags are packed and I'm just tidying up some last minute things before finishing work for the day and sitting down to eat tea which is almost ready :-) 
Judy, have a fabulous Birthday if I don t get to catch up with you before and have a great day
Enjoy your weekend everyone, lets hope it's not a wet one and look forward to catching up with you on Monday .........   Halloween ...................   ta ta 'till then :-)

  1. I love this! I live not too far from Ascot but I've never been to the races there. I suspect it isn't as elegant as this now though

IndigoBlu Tags  Happy Friday everyone If your a follower of mine you 'll know that I've been off work for a while following an op, but my life as a lady of leisure came to an end this week when I returned to the world of totally british beautiful fast fast cars and ones that go anywhere!!  I had a wonderful welcome back from my colleagues so thanks to everyone for making my first day as good as it was.  I thought I'd feel like the new girl, not able to remember anything, but just like riding a bike it all came flooding back :-) Now I feel like I've not been away lol!!!    I cant deny I'm not pleased its the weekend and I've got time to re charge my batteries before attempting another 5 days on the trot :-)  As I've just joined the IndigoBlu team official this week I thought I'd share a couple of tags with you made with stamps from the  Pomp and Pageantry and Grand Tour 1 plates and the ledger background which I really love.  Tag 1 IndigoBlu
