Introducing ... Donna White!

A warm RES welcome to a special guest for our second birthday, Year of the Farmer Cyber Crop ... Donna White Laughing

Hi! My name is Donna White and I live on the outskirts of a small country town in the Darling Downs, Queensland. Some of you may know me from various forums as Dondon.

I was born in Wollongong, NSW. My family moved to St George Queensland when I was nine years old. My father managed a cotton property there until I was 14. We then moved to Dalby and onto another cotton property. After I left school I moved to town but was not really settled there. I missed the open spaces and the peace of not having close neighbours. About 8 years ago my husband and I bought 22 acres on the outskirts of town where we built our dream home. We grew cattle until the drought hit and we ran out of feed. I miss looking out of my window and seeing the steers in the paddock, maybe one day.

I am a mother to two amazing teenage girls, Kirsten, 15 and Amanda 13, who have been my scrapping subjects for the last 9 years. I also enjoy scrapping about my life, my friends (and their children) Oh, and my husband LOL
I have recently discovered art journaling as well, so it is quite common to see my hands covered in ink and paint.

You can find my blog at http://donna-white.blogspot.com.au (Pop in and say Hi!)

I am currently serving my second term on the Scrap the Girls DT and feel honoured to be asked to be a guest designer for Red Earth Scrapping.
Thanks girls.

  2. HI Donna. So lovely to read and to 'know' you a little more. Droughts are truly heartbreaking... even more so when livestock suffer.

    Love the bright colours of the LO.
