Our next inspirational piece comes from.....

Megan Vinn - Freya's 1st and 2nd Xmas


Hi all!
Merry Christmas! Hope you all enjoy the silly
season, I know I'm really looking forward to
it! I've made a page this month with an
aluminium foil base. I scrunched it up and
painted some yellow/gold colour on to it.
My attempts at shopping for scrapbooking
needs have been foiled.... ehem sorry for
the pun! So this is what I thought of. The
pics are of my oldest child. The arch at the
top is meant to represent the stable, a safe
haven for her. I cut up some ribbon and made
bows and hot glued on some other nic nacs.
What a beautifully epic painting this month's
challenge is! So many colours and such movement!
Anyhoo, Have a great month!

Hey Megan!
Thanks for the Christmas well wishes :) I am
amazed at how you can scrunch and paint
aluminium foil and have the whole page look
like a master piece. If I tried that technique
mine would look dreadful :( I love how you did
the arch at the top of the page to look like the
Stable. I love your pics of Freya, its amazing
how much they grow in twelve months.
Great work Megan! - Cheers Shazza
