Having lived my entire life in Christchurch and surrounding areas I am a firmly entrenched Cantabrian.  My parents immigrated from the Netherlands in the 1950s and so Holland also holds a special place in my heart.  Married for a long time, and with four children and an adorable grandson, I always have plenty of photos and memories to scrap. 

I was introduced to scrapbooking four years ago and enjoy recording the memories of my life and the lives of my family in a creative way.  I am currently busy creating albums for each of us about our three month trip to Europe and England almost ten years ago.  I also enjoy working with fabric so patchwork, quilting, and cross stitch feature in my life as I have the time.

With a strong faith in God, I strive to life my life in service to Him, and in a way that shows care and concern for others.
