White with 1

White with 1 this month we had to use lime green and buttons. I haven't done this challenge before and two post in one day?? Am trying to get organised!!

Bird is the Word

It's now the 15th January and I haven't done a post for two weeks but I have been scrapping at last!! I made a list of all the challenges I want to do for the month and am slowly getting through them.

I haven't done this challenge before so decided to give it a go. We had to use the word Wonder. This is a layout of my niece who lives in the UK and eloped up to Skye in Scotland to get married!!
A couple of close-ups.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year everyone and I hope 2012 is a great year for you all.

I have started the year as I mean to go on...with plenty of scrapping!!!

Prima Class

In November I did another Prima class...this time with Trisha Ladouceur and it's a really beautiful project. I love it!! At the time I didn't have the photos that I thought should go with it but my niece got married a couple of weeks ago and the photos are just perfect.
There are all sorts of pockets and tags on each layer. I believe there are FIFTY layers on this layout. This is what I did with it. Thanks Trish and the class was at Scrappidoo at Currimundi.
The layout closed up.
Front flap open.
Both flaps open.

Inside second flap.
The second flap with the tags.
Close-up of the front flap.
I enjoyed doing this layout so much that I might even do another one!!

Holiday photos

I have a few more pics of my Canadian/USA holiday that I'm going to share at last!! The first three are of the area around Lake Waterton.
Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump.
The Indians used to kill the buffalo by making them jump over these precipices and they would all land on top of one another and die.

A cute little squirrel.

Black Eagle Falls


Montana

Yellowstone National Park

Old Faithful Geyser
 We had to wait quite a long time for this geyser to erupt as we got there just after it erupted. It only erupts about every 1.15 hours. We had no trouble filling in the time as there were quite a few touristy shops.
Look at him...isn't he beautiful?? He walked out on the road in front of the coach and we had to wait for him to get out of the way. I fell in love with these gorgeous animals.
 The Norris Geyser Basin.
The Three Amigos...as we were nicknamed!
This is Mammoth Springs which is at the northern end of the park.

Think that's enough for this post. There are so many photos that I had to pick and choose a few.

Scrapboutique Retreat

In November after Ingvild's class a friend and I headed down to Darlington Park for this retreat. Love going down there and catching up with all the fabulous girls from the forum. We
ll be going again next year too hopefully, but am planning on going for a week.
With all the talking and laughing I only managed to get a few layouts done. They were all challenges.

Ingvild's Class

Wonders will never cease!! I've actually made time to update this blog! In fact I started to do it yesterday, to put up some more photos of my Canada/USA holiday. Had about three more photos to upload and lost the lot...so I lost the plot!! Decided to try again today.

This is a class I did with Ingvild Bolme (from Prima) when she was in Australia in November. This particular class was held at Scrappidoo at Currimundi.
