Paper Crafts with Marloes

  Using the national stamping month stamp set and Laughing Lola paper and string. Recipe: The front of the card measures 7inch by 5inchs I have used purple paper from the Laughing Lola paper packet. The Laughing Lola Gold outside squares measure 1.5inch by 1.5inch The middle rectangle measures 1.5inch by 2 inchs. Cut a small strip of paper for the bottom of the card and 2 pieces of string. I have stuck the string on the inside of the card. The stamps I have used are from National Stamping Month - You are My Happy. They come in a set of 3 sheets of stamps for $15 when you spend $75.   Visit my website to purchase this stamp set and products I have used: www.marloes.shopctmh.co.nz

What I like most about doing scrapbooking, I enjoy catching up with friend(s). Bouncing ideas of one and other. "Does this work with that picture etc". This is my time to chill out from the busyness from the day to day activities with littlies at home. My littlies love to see what I have created in their albums. The joy on their faces are delightful. My very first scrapbook course my mum dragged me along to with my first baby only a few months old. I learnt the basics at a local college course.  My mum then took me along to a full day workshop the following January.  I loved it so much, it was my day out for me to do something creative, and to refuel my energy tanks. While Dad or the grandparents looked after the littlie.  I then started going along to monthly workshops.  I could even take my baby number 2 along, while she was being breastfeed and wasn't crawling around.  These workshops were so much fun. I hosted a couple of Creative Memories parties...
