The Colombian is one of five siblings. They are an extremely close … Continue reading Luxembourg Wedding
Scrapping in 2019 #1
I began the month with a festive layout of our great nephews with their Colombian family. I've loved Doodlebug's new Christmas Town range and have been happy to use it at any opportunity.

Scrapping in 2018 #11
Scrapbooking time was virtually non-existent during the Summer holidays, and what little time available was allocated to our holiday Traveller's Notebook. I've added a page to The Boy Child's album - one about being runner-up for a prize initiated by the family of his teacher who died. The Cup (it's actually a rose bowl) is … Continue reading Scrapping in 2018 #11
