Seeing Out 2025 | A Favourite Project from Each Month

G’Day Friends,

As I see out 2025, I wanted to take a moment to look back and celebrate the creative journey this year has been.

From handmade cards to mini albums and special design team projects, each month brought something a little different — new ideas, favourite techniques and projects that truly sparked joy at the time.

I’ve chosen one favourite project from each month of 2025 to share here.  Some were made just for the love of creating, others for teams or challenges, but all of them hold special memories and reflect where my creativity was in that moment.

Thank you to everyone who followed along, left kind comments and supported my crafting throughout the year.

 

Here’s to creativity, community and all the inspiration that 2026 will bring.

Mini Album with Christmas Tree Farm Paper Collection

G’Day Friends,

I’m so excited to be a Guest Designer for Paper Rose Studio this month!  For my project, I created a festive mini album featuring the gorgeous Christmas Tree Farm Collection.  This collection is full of cozy plaids & stripes, snowy trees, cute little animals, poinsettias and Christmas charm — perfect for capturing all your Christmas memories.

About the Project

Mini albums are such a wonderful way to preserve Christmas traditions and tell your Christmas stories.  The Christmas Tree Farm Collection made it easy to create pages filled with warmth and festive cheer.  From layering patterned papers to adding little tags and pockets, this project is both fun to make and a keepsake to treasure.

This project was such a joy to create and I’m thrilled to share it with you as part of my guest designer feature for Paper Rose Studio.  Whether you’re making a gift for someone special or keeping it for yourself, this mini album is a beautiful way to celebrate the season.

Thank you Paper Rose Studio.  It has been an honour & privilage to be guest designer this month.

Until next time – stay inspired and keep creating!
