Scrap 365 Blog Hop

I have some jolly exciting news to share with you.  The UK are about to get a new shot of inspiration from Traplet Publications (we all love Craft Stamper Magazine).

Scrap365 is a brand new scrapping/journal magazine full to the brim of exciting projects and scrappy inspiration.  If you have popped in on the off-chance, then head along to the Scrap 365 Blog to start your hop.

For my part of the hop, I have to introduce myself with a favourite project from this year.

Well this is me (don't you hate having your photo taken).


I live in the centre of England with my lovely family (tolerant hubby Pete) and my two marvellous children.

I have been hooked on scrapbooking ever since I created my first page 6 years ago. I love the way that anything goes and so many things can be incorporated onto a page. Building up layers and texture is definitely one of my favourite things on a page – I rarely do clean and simple! Stamping, inks and patterned papers will always be my favourite elements although I am particularly partial to punches at the moment especially border punches.

I am fortunate enough to be on Craft Stamper Magazine’s design team which certainly leads the way with creativity and pushing crafting boundaries here in the UK.

I can’t wait for Scrap 365 to hit the newspaper stands. I’m anticipating that there are going to be totally fabulous projects inside!

Here is  a favourite project from this year.



The project appeared in Craft Stamper Magazine, earlier this year and features fabulous Alice in Wonderland images.


My cake was made from various round boxes and finished off with a 'top hat'.  I had fun making the little cake and using tiny bottles.


I used tiny playing cards and more clock images here and there.

Well that's me.  Leave me a comment and I'll pick out a random winner for a RAK (I have a bit of stash stock-piled here). 

Why not hop along Suzy Beecher for more inspiration.  Remember to leave comments on all the blogs along the way to win a year's subscription to Craft Stamper Magazine PLUS fabulous stamps worth £20!
Thanks for stopping by.
