Memories

This is a layout for the monthly competition over at Scrapbooking Top50 Australia. The theme this month was nature. No photos of people allowed. And although this photo doesn't have any people in it, the journalling is about my Oma, who has pretty much lost her ability to remember and to communicate. This photo was one among many that the story behind is most likely lost forever. I hope that my scrapbooking will save some stories for future generations to enjoy.

Hard Hat Shuffle

This was for a bit of a challenge at Scrapbooking Top 50 Australia. Sharnook challenged us to scraplift a layout from a recent magazine. I lifted a layout from For Keeps... d'oh, I've lost the information about what I scrap lifted. If I find it I'll fix this up. Apologies.

Sweet Baby Cayley

Did a layout just to please myself, but it just so happened to also fit the Scrapbooking Top 50 monthly layout challenge of Bling! again.

Had a bit of an accident while creating this layout. I dropped the butterfly onto the page where I did not want it, but couldn't get it off, so there it is, and I had to work around it.

Don't think I was completely successful at getting the page balanced, but it's not too bad.


The colour in this is not quite right, but the close ups show it a bit better.


That darned butterfly in all its glittery glory.


Stickers and rub ons for the title.


Embellishment cluster.


Most of the flowers on this layout are from Scrapsadaisy. Mmmm, love those flowers.
