Challenge #292 - week of 18th June 2018

The week before last, I was lucky enough to spend a few days aways visiting my baby brother (he's actually 24!) in the beautiful city of Vienna! It was gorgeous and a lot of fun to hang out with him and hear all about what he's up to there. It's not the first time I've visited and we did quite some serious sightseeing back then so we didn't need to do quite so much this time around, and we had limited time anyway. I made a mental list of a few things to do and the famous Prata was one of them, in particular the Riesen Rad.

So, this week I'd like you to be inspired by ferris wheels.

Fairground stories seem to be the first thing to spring to mind and that's most likely where I'll go with my page. But you could talk about the big wheel of life, how you feel like you're going round and round, the highs and lows, the view from up there or simply use fairground paper - there are so many fun collections featuring carousels, big wheels and even candy floss that I'm sure you have some in your own stash! Perhaps your love of the fair or how you hate the rides but like the food and atmosphere. You might have had the luck to experience one of the many big wheels to be found around the globe these days such as the London Eye, the Singapore Flyer or any of those to be found in the big cities such as Paris or Las Vegas.

As always, I hope you can find some way to bring ferris wheels into your scrappy life this week and that you'll share your creations!

It would be great to see your creations in our Facebook group here - please don't be shy! Tag your entry with #WMXX so we know exactly which inspiration you've taken. 

Or simply tell us in the comments where to find you... :-
