New Home

My sister-in-law moved interstate to follow her dream job. I'm sad to see her go but know that she is following her dreams and will do incredible things. To make the move a little less lonely I made this for her.

Sunset with my Pup

After doing numerous Create & Learn classes at Kit & Clowder over the past year I thought it was about time to put everything I've learnt into practice and tackle an image on my own. When I saw this new image called 'Sunset with my Pup' by Krista Leigh Smith as part of her subscription, I just knew it was time. Thanks Alyce Keegan for giving me the skills and confidence to step out of my comfort zone and have a go! I love what I've done and have learnt that I need to practice fur some more
