Carol - 1980

I've always loved this picture of my sister, Carol taken in 1980. She looks so proud to be in uniform.

This layout was almost totally scraplifted from one done by "JustAnn" of the DT members of JustCre8 using the November 09 kit.

Cathy Retires - 09

Some more photos from this year!

This layout is scraplifted from "Just Ann" one of the DT members of the JustCre8 site, using the November 08 kit.

The journaling reads:

Cathy ******** celebrates her retirement with a dinner at her favourite restaurant, Biagio's. She was surrounded by friends, family and colleagues. There were some wonderful speeches and gifts as well as tears and laughter. She will be missed at work but is now starting the next phase of her life. January 09

Chateau Fontainebleau 1959

Here's a photo of my siblings and I sitting on a park bench reading (or in Carol's case, checking out a new scab on her knee) oblivious to the BEAUTIFUL view of the Chateau Fontainebleau (France) behind us. I'm so grateful that Dad took so many coloured photos when we were younger.

This layout is almost totally scraplifted from Sue's layout (on JustCre8) with some minor changes (the title and extra bling).

This layout is number EIGHTY for this year - I'm just a scrappin' FOOL!!!

Under the Tuscan Sun - 06

Another layout for my Italy album (will it ever be complete.....sigh.....) This was done for another ScrapLift challenge over at JustCre8. Enjoy!

All PP (patterned paper) is from K&Company (Blue Awning). The alphas are from 3 different companies.

The journaling reads: "Driving through the Tuscan hills of Italy on a beautiful, sunny day. We stopped at one point to look down at the American Cemetery"

Lip Synch - Dream Girls

Another layout for my Lip Synch Album. This one is based on Sketch 28 from 52sketches52weeks.com

These gals were the "backup singers" in all our acts but one. They worked VERY hard and came up with a different routine for each act.

Oh Buoy (Cape Cod) - 2005

Another layout (a simple one) from the August 09 JustCre8 kit using Sketch 33 from 52Sketches.

This is a photo I took in Provincetown (Cape Cod) in 2005.

New Orleans - February 05

Here is a layout done using the last of the JustCre8 kits (boohoo) and sketch 32 from 52sketches.

Part of our trip to New Orleans/Memphis in February 2005. The journaling reads:

Beignets and the Blues...two of our favourite things in New Orleans.
