Starts 28 January over at Bon's Scraps
This photo is from about 1916. It is my Great Nan and My Great Grandad. My Pa isn't even there - Great Nan is pregnant with him, I'm told.... That's how I've dated the photo, because Pa was born in December 1916. I just love the clothes and the hair - it in itself tells a story of our history!
Finally, this is a layout I did with the gorgeous new Pink Paislee range - gosh it is so yummy, I just had to dig out some photos and have a play!!
I am new to "Game On" too, so I can't wait to find out what's in store for us!! It should be fantastic fun, with games, challenges and prizes on offer!!
Head on over to the site to find out more!!
On the scrappy front, I have been quite busy.
This layout I did for Scrapboutique's Cyber Crop. This was the Friday Speed Scrap - I find Speed Scraps so tricky, because I take forever to just pick papers, let alone make any other decisions! LOL!
I've seen on a few blogs that people are picking their "Power Word" for 2010. My power word for this year is "Balance".

I so need to balance the work/life aspect of my life, I need to balance food and excercise so I can lose weight and feel healthy, I need to balance my budget, to save $$$$$ for holidays and house renos - so heaps of balancing will be going on in my life this year!!
The next layout is one I did for a new album I am creating. I have been so lucky to get some gorgeous family photos from my Mum, so at the moment, I am scanning, saving and backing them up, and then doing layouts to show our family history to Connor. Hope he appreciates it as much as I do - even as a child I adored looking at these photos and listening to the stories my grandparents told.This photo is from about 1916.
