Vanity Insanity

Here are some classy spreads of a vanity shoot at Fort Edmonton Park. Looking good Ladies!
Scrapbooking posed pictures can be a lot of fun. This particular layout was designed to open out to show a four-wide page spread. Here we have the front cover pages displaying the title of "Vanity Insanity."
Next we have the four inside pages, from left to right.
Below is a picture of all six pages in the order that they appear

This was a very fun layout to make, although it was extremely difficult to choose which photos to feature. There were approximately 200 pictures to choose from, and these were the winners!

Do you have a Guest Book?

I love it when people have a guest-book in their home or at an event! I keep my guest-book in a place of prominence by my front door...no one can sneak out of my place without signing it! Below are some examples of guest-books that I have designed in the past. First, a guest-book for the home...
The following is a guest-book from a wedding with front cover, insert example, and back cover.
There are many different ways to format a guest book. You can incorporate pictures, embellishments, or just have places to write. Every home and special event needs a guest-book!

Nature at its finest...

Below are some examples of pages that I have done with a "nature" theme...First is my 2009 Garden. The next layout features pictures taken during out time living in the Northwest Territories, what stunning country!



Boating, fishing and camping trips are one of my favourite things to scrapbook! The colours of nature are so vibrant and the finished product always looks so good! Not to mention that my husband is an avid outdoors-man and fishing enthusiast so most of our family pictures include one or more of these events! The first two layout are examples with journaling completed, whereas the last six layouts are before-journaling. This will give you an idea of what the pages will look like when you receive them from me, before you personalize them with your memories!

 Pages can be as simple or as detailed as you want them to be. All of my services are tailored to what YOU want YOUR memories to reflect.

Generation/Heirloom Album

This is the Generation/Heirloom album that I made for My Grandmother-in-law's 90th Birthday in 2009. Heidi gathered all of the pictures, and I put it together. Grandma was very pleased to have a book to show off her entire family!All nine children attended the event, and any Grandchildren who could not attend still got a picture in the album.

New Scrapbooking Oasis


Happy New Year! My Scrapbooking Business is coming along nicely, and I am ready to take on lots of clients! This fall we moved into a new house and I now have a dedicated craft room! For Christmas my husband built me a new oak scrapbooking desk and shelves... they are perfect for all kinds of crafts and they make scrapping so easy and organized...
