mood board/sketch combination. 

So come & play for great prizes & exposure!!


Here is the lovely Kim! Check out her blog HERE
Hi! My name is Kim Ewins & I live in a city called Orange, 
which is a 3-4 hour drive west of Sydney, Australia.

 My husband, Roy and I have 8, (yep! 8!!) wonderful children together. 
They range in age from 23 down to 6 years of age, (5 sons & 3 daughters.) 
We recently found out we are to be grandparents early next year, 
so that is very exciting……oh! The photos!!!

 I started scrapbooking about 6 months after the birth of my last child
 in 2006 & now wish I had started so much earlier.  I am currently on 
a couple of amazing Design Teams here in Australia including 

My style is along the grungy, shabby chic lines but I love to try new things 
& mix it up!  I love  working with neutrals & pastels & lately I have started
 venturing into water colouring on my layouts.  I love texture, buttons, 
lace trim, machine stitching & tea dyed canvas. 

A huge THANK YOU to Helen & the team here at 
Scrap around the World for this wonderful opportunity!


WOW!!  Another totally beautiful layout!


Such very delicate stencil work.  Life really is in the details!


Now for the exciting news!!  
Kim is contributing a tutorial especially for YOU right here!!!
Coming soon!

I want this blog to be a place where you not only come to play but also 
to learn new skills to try out to improve your repertoire & expand your capabilities.  

In return please support our challenges to make the running of this site worthwhile.
Thank you so much!!

Counting down to this challenge closing in just over 10 days!!!

Please remember to leave some COMMENT LOVE for our Guest Kim!
