Pic of the Week!

I'm introducing a new concept to my blog! I LOVE scrapbooking and don't get the chance to complete as many layouts as I would love to do. So I thought if I make a commitment to doing at least one layout each week, I would be getting somewhere. At the beginning of each week, I'm going to show you a favourite 'pic' that I've taken - this will also share a little about me and my family life - and then later on in the week, I will show you the 'pic' in a scrapbook layout. I hope to alternate between 8x8" and 12x12" pages, use sketch challenges, colour challenges and also other techniques. So here is my first 'pic'.

"Pic of the Week"

Yesterday, I had a lovely visit from a very dear friend who I've known and kept in touch with for over 15 years. I met her when I made a trip over to Canada in August of 1994. Since then we've kept in touch via emails and letters. Her name is Lisa and she came to visit yesterday with her family. They are having a holiday in Australia and visiting all their many relatives who live here. So it was very special that she made the time to come and visit me.

I hope you will come back later in the week to see what I've created for this special photo.
