While working on our Australia photo/scrap book, I got a bit sidetracked! But I did get that mission accomplished! Out of our over 3,000 photos, I ended up with slightly less than 300 in the book. On the right page is my summary of our visit to Ayers Rock Resort. On the following page I…

Changing Gears: Documenting Australia
First of all, thank you to everyone who attended my How to Ice Dye Fabric webinar yesterday. We had lots of good questions and it was so much fun for me to share LIVE one of my obsessions. I’ve been pretty much knee deep in that preparation and other artsy stuff (and gardening) this last…

If things have been a bit quiet around here it is because Dave and I just returned home from our bucket list trip to Australia. We spent two and a half weeks traveling this beautiful country visiting Melbourne, Sydney, Ayes Rock, Port Douglas, and Brisbane. After Dave and I had been dating a short while,…
