Great Barrier Reef


The first time we went here we took the kids who were 18 and 19 we could not believe the colour of the sea as where we come from (Norfolk) the water is always grey and muddy looking.
What a eye opener. I still have loads of pictures to scrap and hopefully this year will get even more!!!!!!!! Would love to take Daughter and her family this year but can not imagine flying 24hrs with a 2yr old and a 3yr old what a nightmare that could be!!!!

hello and welcome

Hello and welcome to my little corner of the web.
I stole the blog idea from my daughter who has a blog www.scrapbookingforthesoul.blogspot.com who is a Craft-Ed consultant in Derby.
I live in Norfolk work part time for the local NHS hospital as a seamstress and part time for myself at home.
I have a very understanding husband who gave me a workroom when our daughter moved out (only because I make money from it!!!!!!)
I have a son who still lives at home (obviously make it too good for him) two rough collies and my daughters cat Kiki.
Have been collecting stash for 3-4 years but have not always the time to do any scrap booking so have not done many pages. It actually started by making cards to sell at a steam fair that is held locally every year that was 4 years ago and progressed from there.
I have so many photos that I never look at and I think it is nice to have some journaling so that you remember things about them
