Hi my name is Alicia Redshaw and I live in Gladstone, Queensland. I am married to the most amazing man, and later this year we will celebrate 20 years together. We share three beautiful and talented children, who are our reason for living the life we live. I own Scrapbook Fantasies and love that my life is full of creativity and I get the opportunity to meet new people every day.

Saturday, March 31st, 2012I painted this beautiful young woman about a month ago, and have been keeping her to myself until now. The whole painting is actually a full metre across by a metre and a half high, and currently hangs in our bedroom. I don’t quite know if there is a deeper meaning to her, but I [...]
A Naomi-Jon Share
Saturday, March 31st, 2012I just wanted to share this lovely layout that Naomi-Jon created of her Nana at a recent Kids Scrapbooking Class at Scrapbook Fantasies.

Valentines Day Inspiration
Wednesday, February 15th, 2012My lovely husband gave me flowers and chocolates for Valentines Day yesterday. Naomi-Jon made me a card and a rose (out of paper), and Noah made us some heart shaped biscuits (that he ate). This is some of my Valentines loot. Last night I created an Art Journal page inspired by the flowers. The girly [...]

What happened in November
Monday, December 5th, 2011I thought I should put together a bit of an update on what happened in November, since I had a bit of a blogging break. Mum had the tumour removed from her leg and a large dual skin graft left in it’s place. We then received the good news that they got all of the [...]
Another Update
Monday, November 28th, 2011Mar is doing really well and the best news of all is that they got all of the cancer during her recent operation. Her skin graft is healing better than expected and she should be fully recovered by Christmas. I have decided (as you may have noticed) that due to November being such a big [...]
