Some mini-page embellishments and a blast from my past

Posted on 29/06/2012 by

Completing the mini-book (cover)

Posted on 28/06/2012 by

I am making, but not attaching or decorating, the mini-book covers.  I feel that is best done once the photos are ready.  The title, in particular, will depend on the actual photos I have. Simple stuff, really, and dictated by … Continue reading →

Posted on 23/06/2012 by

I simply cannot believe this is getting posted.  The irony (or would that be hypocrisy?) isn’t lost one me.  I say the same thing every year – I don’t even START to think about Christmas till late November.  I always … Continue reading →
