Hello 2016

Hi all,

I'm hoping you've had a great start to 2016. I'm on school holidays and am having a relaxing time. I've managed to scrapbook a few times plus some colouring in with my Copics. I have even managed to do some cleaning and clearing out.

It's been quite warm here in Perth with some terrible fires started by lightning. Unfortunately many people south of me have lost their homes and belongings, it's definitely a hard time for many Western Australians right now. My local scrapbook store is running a "Happiness Project" where people can make donations of new goods to help out the families that have lost so much, which is so very thoughtful and caring.

Just after Christmas I went to help out one of my friends sort and rearrange her scraproom. We spent 3 days on the task clearing, sorting, painting, trip to Ikea and reordering the room. It was a big task, and wasn't finished when I left , but it was fun. Crazy person that I am I love sorting things for people.

Anyway here are some of my finished pages. The first one I completed after watching the return of Glitter Girl! I'm so glad she's back I always enjoyed her videos on Two Peas and was disappointed when the site closed well thankfully Shimelle has started them again. This page was inspired by her layout.



This page is for my album about my trip to England in 2013. I have already created a project life album about our trip for my mum and now I'm working on my own.

Here is a sneak peek of my January art journal page that I'm teaching on 24th Jan.


And finally here is some of the colouring that I did at my friend's house yesterday. 
         

That's it for now. Have fun crafting.
Take care,

Helen xx
