A little bit about Judy.....

Hi My name is Judy and I live in beautiful north Queensland with my very understanding husband. I have always enjoyed  working with textiles and paper. I started scrapping about 10 years ago and regularly meet with a group of friends to scrap and chat. My style is ever changing but I love layers and experimenting with new techniques. We have 7 beautiful grand children who are the focus of much of my scrapping.

Thank you for joining us Judy!!

We hope Judy has inspired you to join in with our challenge! :)
