Burnett Region

I've been working on my 2021 travel journal this week. I've got a bunch of photos to scrap and I'm in love with 49&Market paper pads. I love how the background work is already done AND the papers are double-sided and thick/sturdy enough to scrap on both sides.


I'm sharing this page at:

* Life is Art ~ Favourite Things online crop - Sketch
Single page - love the grid design!
