Hello everyone, I’m Kirstie from Australia. I was introduced to scrapbooking when I was about 15 or 16. My mum used to enjoy visiting a second-hand bookshop in a small, half-abandoned arcade mall where many of the shops were shut. One day, while walking through to the other end, I saw the most beautiful store. It was painted bright pink and purple and filled with the most gorgeous paper and ribbons.

During the next school holidays, I dragged my sister along to do my first scrapbooking class. I created a page about my little dog, I’ll never forget it— and that’s when the obsession began. I even ended up working in that shop, although it only stayed in that location for a couple of months.

Over the years, I’ve mostly been collecting supplies rather than using them, but during the COVID lockdowns, I started card making and discovered a new love for creating folios and mini albums. I came across Frances just a few months ago, but with the hustle and bustle of life, I hadn’t found the time to try any of the tutorials.

The free trial came at just the right time—I had a weekend at home and decided to give it a go. I started with the ornamental box, as it was the first project I saw and thoroughly enjoyed it. I then spent the next few days poring over the trailers to see what else I might like to make—and I ended up saving over 20 projects! 😆 It looks like I’m going to be busy! I’ve already completed the beginner’s album, and tomorrow I’m planning to start on the fall album! Thank you Frances, I appreciate your efforts and I’m grateful to be part of this community! 🤗

We just got a few more new friends here joining in with us Susan Madden, Debbie Erven and Tammy Walls - I want to say, it's just so wonderful to be here with you! I cannot wait to get to know you and see your projects! Please feel free to browse around, make yourself comfortable and share what project you're currently after!
Hugs & much love
Happy Holidays to everyone 🤍🌱
