Clare's albums are always such a hit with our G45ers! You will adore her Off to the Races album below. Take a look:
"When I saw the Off to the Races collection it bought back great memories of Point to Pointing in the Cotswolds when I was small. We used to have a huge family gathering on Easter Monday no matter what the weather. Sadly I don’t have photo’s from then to put in my album but had great fun mixing and matching the papers to create some fun filled pages. The album can be made with or without the boxed cover and has a full tutorial to go with is if you fancy making one yourself." ~Clare
