White Pines - Trim the Tree

sept-2-pages-page-007
If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know I LOVE Flip Flaps!  Today I have a super cute way to display photos of some of the decorations you use at Christmas time.

Trim the Tree Flip Flap Page I'm not happy with the centre bottom photo but have to wait until Dec 25 to re-shoot it :)


All the Flip Flaps come from the Small Assortment pack (Z1747).  They are attached to the OUTSIDE of the page protector.  Begin at the bottom and work your way up.  I found the easiest way to do this was to place the empty page protector…

I love my customers!  Our annual Duchess Retreat is my opportunity to spoil them with inspiration, time to work on albums, no cooking, no cleaning, lots of girl time and some prezzies.  My sister is my straight man, side kick, go to girl and gopher throughout the weekend.

Over the course of the weekend customers and consultants 'work' together: We laugh til our jaws hurt - usually over silly little things. We help each other out - teaching scrapping tricks we've learnt alo…

25 photos on a layout

I love Flip Flaps!  Belonging to a family who believe 6 photos are better than 1, I always have such a dilemma culling photos for my scrapbook layouts. Since discovering Flip Flaps my task has been made so much easier.

This was a magical day out with https://www.rockinghamwildencounters.com.au/ where we saw dozens of wild dolphins and snorkelled amongst them.  I wanted my page to feature as many photos as possible so I designed a layout …

Cornish coast

This layout is one I adapted a little bit from the Wanderful WOTG kit. (G1088)  Once again, we have taken far too many photos so I had to find a way to squeeze extras onto the page.  Not shown in this photo are the Flip Flaps I will be adding to the layout at home.  I'm really excited to have a pack of 15 3" x 4" Flip Flaps  (Z3027)in our range now.  I print most of  my photos in this size and I …
