Jubilee party scrapbook layout

One of our favourite things about events like the Diamond Jubilee Street Party is the chance to get together with our friends & neighbours! Super-scrapbooker Ifa Zainon loves it when her local village gets together to celebrate - so she's made this scrapbook layout about their parties. We love the mini union jack bunting, held in place with brads, and her egg & spoon race brings back fond memories of school sports days! Thanks for joining the party Ifa x
