What can I say - i am overwhelmed by the response to 52 in 10. I never expected such a take-up and I am really really thrilled.
I am so grateful to you for taking the time to comment. Thank you. It makes all the hard work so worth while. Please, do comment each week if you can - it is the boost I needed. Can I also apologise in advance if I don't get to comment on everyone's work. i will try - really hard - but working full time leaves me less time than I would like, so if I miss someon'es please forgive me.
Yesterday Nij and I went for a very cold and frosty walk. Whilst it was freezing it was also beautiful and I took lots of pictures. I have decided to join in with the 52 walks with my camera and this was walk 1. I may not do one every weerk, but I will do 52 of them during the year. I am going to make a page on each walk and so here is my page on walk 1.
I am doing digital pages and printing them off and will then bind it in an album. I loved the format of my JYC so much I wanted to repeat it.
These are some of the photos I took that I loved ....
It really did look like everything had been sugar frosted
My quote for today was
I tried to focus on that today as life was manic at school. First day back and so much to do. And bitterly cold it was too. It was dark and -3 degrees when i left this morning. I just wanted to snuggle back into bed really.
Today I am thankful for many things
- Central heating and a good heater in the car
- The fact that I have lost 2lbs already
- The support I have receievd from everyone for project 5210
- My wonderful husband who took down allt he christmas decorations and lights, cleaned the house and did the shopping - I am very blessed and I do know it.
well done on the 2lbs weightloss. those frosty pics are amazing. wish i could figure out how to print my digi LOs out on my printer so the colours stay tru. even on best they're nothing like it

You took pretty pictures even if I don't like Winter. I also plan to lose weight but it takes motivation to follow a daily routine. Congratulations !

Karen - I downloaded and read the prompt. I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up with a layout a week given all the other stuff on my plate, but I'm going to give your prompts a try and see if I can incorporate them with the templates from Design Your Life class (two birds...). Also wanted to say thanks so much for the treasure your moments download. Awesome!

What beautiful pictures. Thank you so much
for this challenge. 5210 is just what I need to get me back to scrapbooking again properly. I have downloaded yesterdays prompt, covered my album, done an intro page, sketched out and done draft of the journaling to go with.Thank you this is more then I have done over the past 6 months!

Really enjoyed your Christmas album so I thought I might give this project a go. Last decade saw major changes in my life. Your frosty photos reminded me of just one of those changes - marrying a Scot & moving from Oz to live in the Highlands where I too delighted in taking pics of snow & ice, very different from the tropical area to which we hve now returned. The PDF worked well - I'm so glad you didn't use 4Shared as I can't access it now that I have Remote Access Not allowed ticked on the computer ( a hint from UKS)

Beautiful photos even though I, too, hate the cold!

Love the LO and the photos are fab.
Well done on the 2lbs off already.

I uploaded my LO from prompt 1 to the FLICKR site (user name Moogieof4) and I did find scrapbooking an old(er) photo quite challenging. But it's rare that I start & finish a LO in a day. I like being part of something bigger than just me. Thanks.

gorgeous photos and a lovely layout. It looks as if you had a lovely walk together.
J was back at school today as well. Usual last-minute crisis - he asked for his dance kit at 7:40am. I managed to find his clean joggers and a plain t-shirt before he had to go out - but he was not popular! I hope your term gets off to a good start and it all goes well.
I'm not sure how I will do with the 52 in 10. I have a number of projects on the go, so I may not be able to do all of it. I think I'll probably follow all the goings-on, but not necessarily do all the activities. Still, I think it's exciting and I wish everyone a successful year of scrapping (especially you, Karen!).
