This month we celebrate Father's Day in Australia so as a tribute to Dad's everywhere we bring you a little male focused inspiration. That doesn't mean we expect male dominated pages - oh No! In fact you can select anything that inspires you from this image on which to base your page - it could be the fishing or the silhouette, perhaps the sunrise or sunset or the lovely water scene. Maybe the muted colour scheme attracts you - whatever the inspiration we would love to see your pages.
This month our team have some really lovely yet very different takes on our inspiration photograph.
I'd also like to welcome Lynne Joncas to our team. Lynne was our guest designer last month but I am now delighted to welcome her to the team as one of our members.
The feeling of serenity is what spoke to me most in the inspiration photo, and that's what I tried to capture here. This photo was taken near where we used to live in northern BC by a family friend, who was kind enough to let me scoop it from his Facebook page! The gathered paper is from a sewing pattern, and the monochromatic colours are meant to draw your eye to that fabulous sunset!

It is such a breathtaking inspiration photo this month, so I was truly inspired by the sea and the calming evening colours.
I have had some photos of my sister's family for a while, taken around their cabin by the fjords, so now I could make a page as an addition to my niece's album.

The fishing picture inspired me to do this page using a similar theme. Come along and join in with P&P for this fun challenge.
From our inspiration photo this month, I decided to go with the beach
theme. The photos are of my son (aged 8) and myself, exploring the rock pools
at Flat Rock near Ballina. This is a great area to find all sorts of little
marine creatures, including starfish, sea anemones and sea urchins.
Diecutting, stamping and heat embossing are some of the techniques used on
this layout.
Loved this photograph - I instantly wanted to scrap my sons first fishing trip.
I was inspired by the beach theme. I am on the right, aged 2 1/2. I have written all the names on the tag slipped under the left side of the photo.
I was inspired by the blues in the water.
I was inspired by the sunset/sunrise aspect of this photograph. It is a magical time caught between night and day, when the earth is still and tranquil like it is just catching it's breath.
