Fishing
My husband only goes fishing once or twice a year. This trip was ocean fishing with a group of industry colleagues. He only caught the one fish but enjoyed his time on the boat. The rows of reels caught his photographer's eye as did the jetty boards. I used Timberline papers with Indian Corn Blue cardstock for this layout. The design was super simple so it was a quick page to make. When I scrapbook photos of Mike's adventures I try to honour his belief that pages should be classic and mode…
I LOVE Flip Flaps
Have you used Close To My Heart Flip Flaps on your album pages yet? They are the solution scrapbookers have been seeking for years. Check out the layout I made to hold 22 photos!
What's that you say?
"I can only see 9 photos, Shaunna"
Take another look now I've Flipped the Flaps!!
Pretty cool, isn't it? Flip flaps come in many different sizes to hold single photos or multiples. you can also use them for memorabilia. I've used 12" long Flip Flaps on this page. They come in widths of 4", 6" and …

Mother's Day
I hope all the mums had a great day yesterday. Mine turned out to be just so lovely... my family are so supportive of me and made sure I didn't have to do a thing all day (except eat and sip champagne). I wanted to make this page while the memories were fresh so my journaling told the complete story. I don't usually type my journaling, preferring hand writing (warts & all) but there was quite a long story to tell.
So, I chose a very simple layout, based on a card I'd seen by Kimberley Thomas o…

Love Ewe
We stayed at a B&B on a farm just out of Narrogin last year. The cottage we were in was an original building and was quite lovely. Today's page features some orphaned lambs that were in the paddock next to our accommodation and shots of the farm.
My sister actually created this page using my photos. Isn't she so very kind? I love this layout. She based it on 'Magician's Choice", p116 of the Magic How To Book. Can you spot how much cleverness went in to these pages????

My clever team
My team of consultants, known as the Dazzling Duchesses, get together once a month with consultants from another team to share creative ideas. We participate in a 10 for 10 Swap. Each of us brings 10 of the same thing ( a card, page, border or embellishment) and swap them for items made by others. I find having a collection of samples to share with you, my lovely customer, is so helpful because our teams have great ideas that they teach me and I can pass on to you.

Tourists in our town
For several years Mike and I have been taking time to be tourists in our own town. Last year for our anniversary, we booked into a hotel in Fremantle for a couple of nights. Freo is only a 30 minute drive from home but it is a beautiful port city worth spending more than a few hours in. These pages showcase our anniversary breakfast in the park across the road from our hotel and our dinner in a delightful tapas bar.

Embossed accents
I have a new toy! My little green Cuttlebug is proving to be so much fun to hang out with. It works with the CTMH embossing folders to add a textured pattern to flat papers. There are 5 folders to choose from. Take a look at them here. The folders will work with other brands of embossing machine, I just like this one because it is so compact and easy to use (and I got a great deal on it because I'm a consultant).
