The Scrapdragons

Dear Bloggers,
We call ourselves the 'Scrapdragons' and the 5 of us meet once a month and Scrapbook together. We've been meeting now for over 5 years and we always have a good time. We laugh a lot and cry a little as we share our trials and tribulations over a scrapbook page. The cameras always come out and usually my friend's husband or daughter dutifully take numerous photos of us on everyone's camera. (I don't actually bring mine as the number of photos that are taken is so obscene that I can not add to the clicking). As a result I think that we should be called the 'Snap Dragons'. The other girls kindly give me copies of the good photos. This LO is quite clean and geometric and features a handful of the thousands of photos of us - the Scrap Dragons.

Scrapmatts and Present Wrapping

Dear Bloggers,
Scrapmatts makes a selection of enchantingly beautiful snowflakes. These little guys are so versatile as I layered them to make centres for my Christmas Presents. I applied two coats of white detailed Stampendous Embossing powder and heat set so there was a rich lustrous covering of white.

Here is my November DT reveal part 1

A bit of Help From A Friend

Dear Bloggers,
I just love my cat Kimba...he follows me everywhere and is an absolute joy. Today I was carefully laying out craft supplies that were going into a blog giveaway. I quickly dashed off to get my camera only to find on my return that Kimba was ever so comfortable right on top of them all.
