Shades of Grey card

Hi friends/bloggers it's a beautiful sunny hot day today. I hope
you all have good weather wherever you are today.
Over at 'Less is More' it's as colour theme this time and ..... 
 
Shades of Grey
 
After much thought I came up with this idea.......well several
really. You choose which you like best, I kept adding and taking
bits away,...... faffing really ! I like the first one best I think.
 
 
 I tried adding various shades of grey in them all though.
ps. Off to sit in the sun now if it's not too hot. We are getting
our above ground swimming pool ready as all the children
and babies are coming tomorrow I think.
 
Should be very hot,
so a quick dip and lots of ice lollies all round I think.
 Enjoy the weekend whatever you have planned :)
