Somerset Memories - Autumn 2011

Well I was soo excited tonight to see in my letterbox my first ever Somerset Memories scrapbooking magazine!

I had two layouts in this magazine - my first ones ever!

Here are some sneaks ...













Loving this magazine!!! Very artsy and cool and featuring quite a few Aussie scrappers!

Only disappointment is that it only comes out twice a year :(

Holidays are in full swing, had an awesome op shopping day! Lots of bargains :)

Have been busy busy but just grateful that I have this school holiday time to do things .

Take care ... A post for Stuck Sketches is coming the start of October

Creating Keepsakes ....vol.6, issue.6

I didn't realize this one was out until my aunty text me and told me.

Carmen has joked with me for a while that she wants me to scrap a photo of her and get it accepted and published so she will be 'famous' haha ... I did it, lol. Here she is !!












It was on the front of the Aussie reader gallery so I was wrapped with that...check out Volume 6 Issue 6....
