If anyone wants to try their hand at paper scrapping Scrap Tutor has a couple of free online classes that sound quite interesting and cover lots of topics. Check them out if you ever feel like getting glue on your hands.
At tchibo they are selling a sticker machine at the moment. I already had a small Xyron, so I didn’t really need another one, but then again who knows what they are good for? So I got it today. Nicole is selling refills in her shop Scrapbook Laden so I shouldn’t have any problems getting [...]

Yes, over at the Shakerbox there is a President’s Day crop going on with loads of challenges, and one of them was an explosion card. What on earth is an explosion card? Tilda posted a very easy tutorial for making one. So I decided to get my (few) paper supplies out and give it a [...]

Via a link from Susan I got to Princess Pamela and her great template for a scrapbook ornament. I did this one yesterday and it turned out very cute. However, I think a put the ribbon through the wrong sides, but next time I’ll know better. And some whose name I won’t mention stepped on [...]
Right, I have been cranking out pages today as if there was no tomorrow. All for various challenges at PDP.
Here they are.
For the scraplift challenge hosted by me I made a fun page with a bouncy donkey. I’m sure Saskia won’t recognize her layout anymore, but that’s ok.

I had a busy Saturday yesterday and finished two projects that have been waiting to get done for quite some time. I wanted to make two (belated) birthday gifts for my MIL – a cotton bag that I wanted to embellish together with Corin and a hybrid altered board book. Well, the bag is not [...]

Just in case you are not receiving the Simple Scrapbooks newsletter I thought I’d share the link to the instructions for a little booklet. They call it Travel Log, but of course you can use it for anything. It is not quite like the album we did in that recent class which I showed a [...]

Yesterday was the Scrapbooking class I wrote about some time ago. And it was so enjoyable. We made a little accordion album from scratch. We started out with some cream colored cardstock and chose a double sided paper and two other sheets of cardstock. All the papers we could choose from were from Fontwerks and [...]

Yes, that’s right. You heard it. Some time ago I went to a paper scrapbooking shop ( a real life one, we are lucky enough to have one not too far away, about 40 min drive) and got a few little things because they were so cute and nice to look at. Needless to say, [...]

In December I read on Scrapartist about Ali Edwards’ great idea to use received Christmas cards to make a little wall decoration. So this time I kept them all and chose a few to actually do some paper project again (well, a VERY small project, but nevertheless). You can see Ali Edwards’ project here: Ali [...]

For digi scrappers who want to get into paper scrapping (at least a little bit) they might be an interesting idea. According to the announcement you can "download class materials, watch [...]

Since I couldn’t bring my PC with me when we went on holiday I packed a bag with my few paper scrapping supplies for the week. A week without some sort of scrapbooking is hard to imagine, isn’t it? So I started to work on the album about the holidays during the holidays. I made [...]
