scrapping simple

It seems like such a long time since I've put some time aside to scrap for myself.

I love the challenges that are put to me by the magazines but I really love it when you have the freedom to create for yourself.

This morning I created this layout with some photos that I've had since Christmas day.

They were the usual Christmas Day photos of the boys that I love to take but this year I managed to hit the jackpot and get a really nice one of the two of them. The journalling tells how I seem to love the crazy ones even more when I look at these photos altogether.

Don't be fooled by the simplicity of this page.

There are 9 different items used on this layout and I love how clean it still looks.

This is definately my new favourite layout.

Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention

I'm pretty excited to have been asked to talk at The Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention on June 12-14th this year in Brisbane. I was even more excited when the program came out in print and I was listed amongst some wonderful scrappers in the industry who will be teaching that day.

Here's a link to the Studio Talks that are being held by Scrapbooking Memories - I'll be talking at 11am each day and can't wait to catch up with some friends (both old and new). I would love to say hello if you come so please don't be shy and come and introduce yourself.

The girls at Scrapbooking Memories have asked me to talk about my Simple Style and how to achieve it. I'm in the processing of trying to think what to say so if you have any thoughts on what you'd like to hear then leave me a message so I can be sure to include it in my talk.

Looking forward a great long weekend in June - take care, Leanne

Collage layouts - thanks for sending them through

I received three gorgeous layouts this week using quite a few photos - the first two were from Colleen Boshoff and the last one was from Michelle Jamieson.

I love them all.

I thought I might split the pack and send you half each - it's really lovely so start choosing your beach photos and your pack will be in the mail next week - can you email me your postal address? .

Thankyou for sharing your creations.

I'd love to see what you create with this new kit when you're finished.
