A lovely birthday

Its the perfect end to a lovely birthday, sitting with a cup of tea watching Glee (yes I'm a Gleek!), reading through peoples blog posts, working on a spreadsheet, organising photos on iPhoto, catching up on Twitter and pondering what could be one of my greatest ideas ever, all will be revealed soon!

@tara_cain If you don't already know about 'The Gallery' (the weekly photo craze thats been sweeping the blogosphere) where the hell have you been?!? Tara is the visionary behind this amazing creation.Oh and she's rather lovely too :)

@notefromlapland Well what can I say about Heather?
Trouble maker - I have a blog label and hashtag dedicated to her #IblameHeather

Bitch - She said it herself!
One of my bestest Twitter/Bloggy friends

@nickie72 In her own words 'I have a bit of a stationery fetish obsession addiction...  erm... I love stationery' she has managed to rekindle my love of my Filofax and take a tiny (teeny tiny) step away from my dependance on my iPhone. For that fact alone she deserves respect...and lots of new followers!

 And last but by no means least 

 @SocratesN AKA SingleParentDad

.....he is also the founder of the 'Sexcel' Movement (he may suggest/offer v-lookups for anyone not feeling the Sexcel love)

The Gallery - Joy

This weeks prompt was 'Joy'

I took this photo (on my iPhone, as always!) over the Easter weekend when we went for a walk along the beach. To me it seems like the perfect picture to depict Spring and new beginnings which is something that is bringing me alot of hope and joy at the moment.

Flowers are beginning to appear in beautiful vibrant colours are my colours are coming back too!

Take a look at this weeks other enteries into The Gallery

The Gallery - Colour

This weeks prompt was 'Colour'

I love all things colourful, sparkly and sugary so I thought I'd share picture of the yummy sprinkles we added to the cupcakes we made for Mum on Mothers Day.

iPhone Photography-My new Obsession

I have a new hobby....iPhone photography!

Lovely photos from a lovely weekend :)

Reason why I love my iPhone #1

The Gallery - A Number

This weeks prompt was 'A Number'

I choose Six because that's the number of days that I've felt happy and like I'm back to my old self.

The Gallery - Beauty

Tara over at Sticky Fingers has started a new blog feature/workshop called The Gallery

The Gallery

Every week I will give you a prompt, an idea, a notion and you go out and take a photograph using that prompt. Or just use a photo you already have.

The prompt could be one word, an object, an idea, a phrase, anything, and you have to post a picture which you feel represents that prompt.

Post it on your blog and write about it.

This weeks prompt was 'Beauty'
I think these pictures show natural and simple beauty perfectly.

They were taken on my iPhone a few months ago and I'm really pleased with how they've come out. I've decided that all my pictures for The Gallery are going to be taken and edited on my iPhone.

Photo details- The colours on the first photo haven't been enhanced at all (mainly because I didn't know how to do that back then) the second photo was edited using an app called 'ColourSplash
