I hope you have plans for a relaxed day enjoying all the delights of our Australian landscape and culture. Our house is about to get busy. Each year our daughter hosts a 'Hottest 100' Countdown Party. A National radio Station, JJJ, plays the most popular songs of the year as voted by it's listeners. The day involves lazing by the pool, eating yummy food and enjoying friendships new and old as the songs play.
I realised the other night I've never made a page abou…
Here is the second layout for our Little Black Dress night. It follows on from Friday's post. A large group of young women (I include myself here because I felt young that night) on the dance floor seem to spend more time taking photos of themselves than dancing! Perhaps that is more a reflection on the quality of the music than the individuals. Anyway, the result was a set of fun photos taken at awkward angles but filled with smiles.
This page features heartstrings papers, This Moment and Y…
Operation Smile is a private, not for profit organisation providing reconstructive facial surgery to children and young adults born in developing countries. On 1st December Close to My Heart Consultants released our Seasonal Expressions Idea Book. On the back page of this Idea book you will find the C- sized, You’re the Bomb stamp set (C1617). By purchasing this set at full retail price of $21 you can help change the life of a child as CTMH will donate $US3 from your purchase to Operation Smil…
The Heartstrings Workshop on the Go (G1090) is a card making kit but I have used the stamps on lots of my album pages. The sentiments blend with so many of life's celebrations. Today my pages are all about my sister's birthday breakfast which we celebrated on our balcony in Riomaggiore on the Cinque Terra in Italy last year. It was a very special experience!
The layout is based on Card Trick from the Magic How To Book (9040). It was very quick to make.
Have you had a look at the beautiful pages in this month's CTMH special promotion? Click here for details. The soft orange, blue and yellow tones and subtle prints work so well for cards and pages. I was surprised just how far this pack of papers and stickers will stretch. I've created a double page layout and 2 cards and I've only used about half the pack. Check back tomorrow to see the cards. Today I'm sharing the pages I made.
This layout is copied from Make It From the Heart Vol 1,Layou…

I have a friend who has a birthday on Anzac Day - how lucky her friends are never working on her birthday! We joined her family to celebrate the occasion with a twilight sail. It was a perfect Perth evening and such a happy time. How fortuitous that Close To My Heart has the Seaside papers (X7192b) and Complements stickers (X7192c)! They were perfect for my photos.
I based this layout on the Clean Dimension layout on pages 102-103 of the Cherish How To Book (9038) I love how easy it is to c…
