I haven't solved the dilemma of scrapbook storage, so I'm continuing with my hunt for a scrapbooking solution that ticks all the boxes. And just like blogging, I've no plans to stop scrapbooking. As previously mentioned, I've returned to Project Life this year (in a smaller format than before) and I will also incorporate 8x8 … Continue reading Scrapping in 2020 | The Goals
There is always a well thought out class timetable for a GoGo weekend, where delegates chose their classes in advance. Each class has three choice and are graded in technical difficulty. Of the five classes I took, I think 4 were intermediate and one was advanced. Friday night's class involved paint and a lot of … Continue reading Gogo Getaway | The Classes

The Colombian is one of five siblings. They are an extremely close … Continue reading Luxembourg Wedding

The Colombians en masse I saw this design with the embroidered heart on Instagram and thought it was fabulous! So much so, … Continue reading Scrapping in 2019 #1
Mindful of the fact we don't have a lot of storage space left to use, I've been thinking about this year's scrapbooking goals. It's a given that often times, scrapbooking is a kind of therapy for me, so there's no way I'm ready (or want) to stop. I'll continue with a year-long album, which usually becomes … Continue reading Scrapping in 2019 | The Goals
It took us a little over two years but, just before Christmas, we managed to photograph the four cousins together.
