The End!

Hooray I have finished the Australia scrapbook. It has only taken 5 years! Here's the last two pages.



Next is the Canada/ USA trip from 2010!

Almost There!

I've just got a couple more pages to do in my Australia album and it will be finished!  Here's thetwo I made yesterday.
 We were both fascinated by the crecent moon being horizontal instead of vertical! It had never occurred to either of us that it would be any different to at home.
I'm entering this into the challenge at Lasting Memories where they want to see palm trees on the layout.  The two small ones are echoing the frond that shows up in the photo.


This page is photos taken on the trip out to The Great Barrier Reef.

Finally....

I've at long last got round to doing some more scrapbooking.After our trip to Australia in 2014 I decided to do a scrapbook of our trip. It started off very well but ground to a halt over the last couple of years. As I've only got a few more pages to do I'm determined to get it finished in the next couple of weeks. Then I can start on the USA/Canada one!

Here's a couple of pages done in the last two days.

MMM At the Beach end june

Amy has chosen our theme of "At the Beach" for the new challenge at Make My Monday. I decided to use a scrapbook page I have just made for my Australia album.

The photo was taken by The Nobbies outside Melbourne. It was quite breezy as can be seen by my hair and the surf.

Sunday Scrapbooking

I have been going through my draft posts and right down at the bottom were three more layouts which I made quite a while ago . So I have combined them into one post for you.







Have a good Sunday and Happy Mother's Day to my UK readers - hope you remembered to change the clocks as well!

Sunday Scrapbooking.

Well I've given you a break for a while from the Australia scrapbook pages, but I decided it was time to show another one.


This the Anzac Memorial at Alice Springs Just look at that gorgeous bue sky! The map was an embellishment in the kit I was given in my secret santa, way back in 2014!

Another Sunday Scrapbooking!

Another Melbourne page for my Australia album.
The top two photos were the view out of our hotel room window, and the bottom one was one of the houses we passed on our evening tram tour.
Our first night dinner was served on this restaurant tram while it toured the city. A great evening!

Snowy Layout!

I have promised myself that I will do more scrapbooking this year. I haven't done much in the way of paper layouts since the class I went to folded! But I have so many papers and 12 x 12 card to use and I see this as a way of using it and getting photos either out of boxes in the garage or off my computer. With this in mind I looked for some scrapping challenges to inspire me and what better than   "Lasting Memories" Scrapbook Layout challenge (sister site to Digitally Sweet) Fortunately their challenges now stay open for a month as otherwise I would have missed the deadline for this one. The theme was Spring or Winter and I chose to use a photo of the snow we had in January 2010. I can't decide whether I prefer the snow or this relentless rain and wind we're having. My heart goes out to all those people here in the UK who have been flooded and had to leave their homes. Fortunately the only thing that floods here (so far) is my garage and then only when the rain comes down so heavily that the drains can't cope with it. When that happens I have to make sure the freezer is unplugged or else I lose all my electricity as well! I plan on getting some sandbags to put against the inside of the big door to see if that helps.

However, back to the layout, I have used some blue 12 x 12 card (possibly Stampin' Up) a very pretty sheet of foiled paper from Papermania and some pearlised brownish card (DCWV I think).  Some gold spotty washi tape (SU), a last minute addition to break up the brown, glittery thickers alphas, a Martha Stewart snowflake punch  and The Festive Flurry stamp set and matching framelits from SU. I stamped the snowflakes in Versamark then heat embossed them with Pool Party Embossing powder Some stickles and a rhinestone finished it off. The journalling is on the tag underneath the photo.
