August... - a photo on Flickriver

August...

            Smile on Saturday - What's in a name

Rather late in getting this taken and posted. We had a request for a little person to come and play at Nanny and Pops' house (garden) what could be better than to hang out with a two year old? I've achieved my steps goal 😂
I decided on August as it is the first of August today but it is also a First name. The following information is from WikiPedia:

August is both a given name and surname developed from the Latin, Augustus. Derived from the Latin word augere, meaning "to increase," Augustus had the meaning "esteemed" or "venerable" and was a title given to Roman emperors.

I have included a poppy and a couple of poppy seed head decorations as Gladiolus and Poppies are the birth flowers for the month of August. My gladioli haven't come up this year so I have used a poppy again...I think I would be pushing my luck if I used this for my 100 Flower challenges!

More practise with my brushstroke lettering.

Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
