"My Favorite Author"

Another Layout completed - "My favorite Author" this was taken back in 2012 when Tony Park visited the Chermside Library - I absolutely love his books and he was a treat to listen to, has some wonderful stories of his foray's into Africa, (he at that time had a home in Africa and one in Sydney - not sure if he still does) and was very friendly and gracious when I wanted to meet him and get a photo with him.  I tried to figure out how I could add the flyer to the layout for safekeeping, and even though I wasn't thrilled about folding it like I did, I ended up putting it on the back of a journal tag that slides behind the photo just so I could keep it with the layout.  (P.S - using American Spelling for my grandkids, LOL!)  

The products that I used were the "This And That" collection of papers, tags, stickers (very little used - mostly just stamping)
