You & Me

When I saw that this months challenge at  Challenge Yourself was a sewing challenge I thought hmmm, not me, I'll come back and see what's up next month. I hate sewing! 

But then I thought about it and what the word "challenge" means. I like to scrap in different styles and this is very evident here when you compare this to my previous layout "Saint-Emilion". As simple as this is, this was quite the challenge for me....to include sewing and of course the layout had to include myself. 

Did I mention, I hate sewing!

My husband and I visited the Black Forest last year and one of the places we stopped was Triberg to see the highest waterfall in Germany. The waterfall is not without controversy as when I was reading about places to visit when planning our trip, a lot of people were quite disparaging in their reviews of this marvel of nature. Remarks such as "it's just a trickle" and "tourist trap" did not dissuade us and although it was no Niagara Falls, it was worth a hike in the beautiful Black Forest. It also gave us an excuse to sample another Black Forest cake from the cafe at the foot of the falls.
