Happy New Year


Welcome to 2014,

Happy New Year to everyone, I hope you all celebrated well and are looking forward to a wonderful year ahead.

Today I would like to introduce our Guest Design Team member for January.

Dale Tiernan





About Me:   I'm mother to Damon (16) and Mark (13) and wife to my husband Paul. We live in Western Australia.
My Scrapping Life: I truly love scrapbooking. It just suits me perfectly. I started my first scrapbook in primary school in which I used to paste memorabilia. I still have it but unfortunately it is falling apart. I started scrapbooking again in February 2003 after going to a Creative Memories home class. I basically taught myself for six months. Then I decided that I wanted to teach others as a job. I joined  Creative Memories and was a consultant for 4 1/2 years. I love creating layouts, cards and off the page projects.
Your Scrapping Style, Favourite Products and Techniques: I enjoy trying different techniques although my style is mostly clean and simple. I have always believed a layout should enhance the photos and I always include journalling to tell the story behind the photos. Paper is my favourite scrapping product.
My Inspiration: I draw inspiration from the photos themselves, from products that come to mind as I look at them. I've also had ideas from video clips, people's clothing, advertisements, magazines and websites. I'm also inspired to share my designs with others so that they may be tempted to pull out their own scrapbooking kit and create pages. I blog at www.daleys-dailies.blogspot.com.
My Scrapbooking Philosophy:   I love to scrapbook. It is my favourite hobby but I don't just do it for fun. I believe in keeping a history of my family life for my husband and I to look at in the future. I get satisfaction from knowing that my grandchildren will know their family background and information and that will create in them a sense of belonging.
