Brighter Days Ahead

In the 5 months that I've been involved in digital scrap booking, I'm met some truly lovely ladies from all over the world. Some are scrappers like me, others are the designers whose work I use to put life to my photographs, both old and recent. One of those designers, Zoe Pearn, is also the designer of my current blog layout.

It has come to my attention that her home was one of the many that were destroyed in the recent flooding in Australia. Her friends and co-designers have banded together to create a special scrapping kit in her honor. Brighter Days Ahead will be available until February 15th ONLY, and all profits from the sale of this kit will be donated directly to Zoe Pearn.

You can see the kit here, and you can see her house here.

Thanks for taking the time to read, and thanks if you are a scrapper and can help out.

Foto Friday #9, 50th Anniversary

I know it's not Friday, but I started working on this yesterday and then scrapped it all today and started over. (That was a thinly veiled attempt at humor. "scrapped it". Heh.)

This is my best layout so far, I just started doing this a few days ago.

The photo was taken at my paternal great-grandparents' 50th anniversary, September 1911. (click for larger inage)
