Balloon Ride WOTG
Today's pages were created by my daughter, Kathryn. She is a no frills scrapbooker. Her pages need to have lots of room for photos and there is always a long story to be written.
The layout featured in the Balloon Ride Workshop on the Go Kit suited her style perfectly.
The stamps in this kit are just beautiful. The sentiments will go well with so many themes and the dainty border and corner add subtle highlights to any pages. I love the stamp and franking lines - they add some fun. I can p…
Wild Things
My baby sister turned 50 last year and a celebration at the zoo was planned. It's her favourite place to go. Unfortunately, the forecast was for rain all day so we relocated the event to my house. We wanted her to feel like she was at the zoo, so pulled out all the stuffed animals and cushions with animal motifs to scatter about! Gathering our adult children together is never easy and one was missing but we took the family photo regardless. A snapshot in time.

English Markets
There is something about fresh produce markets that just draws Mike and I in. We love the smells, the colours, the banter of the stall holders and the opportunity to see foods we haven't experienced before. The English Markets in Cork did not disappoint. We went back a second time too! The cold meats, cheeses and marinated mushrooms were delicious - we enjoyed a beautiful picnic back in our B&B (because it was raining again) and washed our treats down with some bubbles.

Butler House - Washi Stamps
Our visit to this beautiful house in Kilkenny, Ireland last year was an absolute treat. It was right next to the castle and had been lovingly restored. When we travel we mainly stay in modest hotels or apartments but do like to 'splurge' once or twice along the way. Mike picked this place and it did not disappoint. If you are heading to Ireland I thoroughly recommend Butler House.

2014 Title Page
As a kid I just loved the start of a new year. One of the best bits was making title pages in all my school books! I know, "Nerd alert". I always make a title page for my photo albums too and was keen to experiment with a stamping technique I've seen about the place.
This layout is taken from the Half & Half tags design on page 86 of Reflections How To book. I love the ideas in this book - the basic designs are very simple and you can dress them up anyway you desire. My sponge daubers got a …

Co-ordinating pages for unrelated themes
Sometimes we only have enough photos for a single page. "WOW!" I hear you say, "Does that actually happen?" The answer is , "Yes, occasionally." When it does it brings the problem of needing to find a way to co-ordinate the two layouts so it remains pleasing to the eye when you turn to this page in your album.
Here are my tips for this situation...

- Keep the layouts simple
- Use the same papers on both pages
- Choose generic images or shapes for your decorations
- Keep headings in the same styl…
Family time is the best time
As our kids grow the opportunities to just hang out together become fewer. They are just so busy living life and being the well adjusted, social & opportunity seeking individuals we raised them to be! I loved this afternoon stroll on our local dog beach. We chatted and laughed and even touched on some D&M topics. It's this everyday stuff that I cherish most and so it needs to be in my album.
