Beaches: December Down Under

December 19, 2022 By Melissa Shanhun Leave a Comment

This year I made the effort to head to the beach a lot more often. It takes a bit of preparation to get four children ready for the beach, but it has been well worth is to see them growing in confidence. Fun fact - December 1 is the start of summer for us, so it's the perfect time to head to the beach.

This December we made an effort to get to the beach more often. We headed to Point Peron to learn about Birak from Olman. Mullaloo with friends, Key West several times with family in the Christmas/New Year break. We are so blessed to have these amazong beaches close by and children who are getting more confident in the water.

Today's Takeaway

Once again I'm using photo backgrounds and keeping things simple!

Create the Look

Today I used the premade page from Nettio Designs Holiday Faves album. No extra embellishing, just clipping paper to the 10 banner and then a photo as a background paper. I tiled all the photos together the technique I described here and then added the locations.
