We have another great submission to show off!


Peggy Schenkels - All Ducks are called Geoffrey


Hi Shazz,
I've attached my October's submission, I hope you like it.
These are my kids a few years back feeding the ducks while on holiday. We would go and feed them every day, and each day the kids would call out for Geoffrey. I haven't got a clue where they first heard that name (it's not a common name in Belgium), nor why they insisted their favorite duck was called Geoffrey, but they sure loved that duck!!! Their dad and I shared some laughs, because Geoffrey changed appearances each day, but the kids did not seem to notice they were feeding a different "favourite" duck each day...
I definitely covered two out of the three criteria. The shades of pink are obvious (I might have gone a bit overboard with the pink :--)))). I did add a little white bird as well ... If you look closely enough, you might see it hanging off the tree branch. The pink roses .. Well, I did add quite a few pink flowers, it's up to you and your imagination whether you can justify calling them roses LOL.
Thanks for another fun challenge Shazz. These pictures probably never would have been scrapped without your challenge, and this is such a beautiful memory, definitely worth being scrapped about. It's stories like this that later in life make us say: "Do you remember when ... ".
Talk to you later Shazz

  6. What a great holiday story & I love the way your have scrapped it Peggy...you are a true scrapbooker! Love your memories on paper. We often see fish jumping in the sea where we live, & for some unknown reason we always shout out 'there's Ian!' That started years ago, when our daughter was very young...who knows why! Hehehe. Such a fun LO here Peggy, love your cut out photos & the rose branch too.
