These Moments Matter: Inside Joke ( Doris )
- Description
- Created for the ‘These Moments Matter’ Month of Challenges by Pixels, Paper and Paint - Life in Pictures by Lynn and Rachel - Challenge Prompt #12 'Inside Joke'
Using ‘Foundation - the Complete Mixed Media Collection’,
‘Hear My Voice Doubting’ and ‘Messy Marks Date Stamps 2025’
Thanks to my 'old soul' energy I earnt the nickname ‘Doris’ from my Godmother and Mum when I was a child.
It started as a playful inside joke, a nod to my quirky mannerisms, and somehow it stuck. Over the years, "‘Doris’ (or the slightly cheekier ‘Dozza’) became a family staple, a name my Mum and sister still use to this day.
While the joke occasionally wore thin—especially when DORIS was bellowed dramatically across a busy supermarket aisle to my utter embarrassment—it was always delivered with affection and plenty of laughs.
I didn’t have a childhood photo of myself to hand for this page so I used this fun paper tag with the perfect eye roll type and ‘ugh really’ expression from Hear My Voice in place of a photo.
