21 Renfrew Street

I found this great photo of the first house I lived in, my Dad built it straight after the war when size and material restrictions were still in place. So many memories of that place (both good and bad!) Sleepin in Mum and Dads room when I was sick, finding Santa presents under the bed in the spare room (oops) the toilet that the night cart used to pick up out in the outdoor wash house, and the yummy gooseberries growing out the back.

This page was also from the May kit from The Paper Teapot, along with a cut file from the Hip Kit which I coloured with Artist Inks from Colourblast Australia.

Just a quick page with my gorgeous little niece Leah 💖

 This was my 3rd layout from the May kit from The Paper Teapot, using lots of Pink Paislee and Bella Blvd, with a Cocoa Vanilla cut file.

Stay Magical

My brother and his wife are pretty much game to try anything  - these were their outfits for the June 2016 World Cup Darts in Auckland.

This page was a partial scraplift (ashersmiles.com), I loved that the paper was torn into strips and reassembled and sewn. I used Pink Paislee paper, journal cards, rub ons and stickers, Bella Blvd diecuts, Neat and Tangled sequins, and Dear Lizzy glitter die cuts - all from the May kit from The Paper Teapot. 

I also used gesso, Ranger ink and Colourblast paste on the background.
