Giveaway - Cardmaking & Papercraft Magazine

One of my most favorite scrapbook magazines comes from the UK,
called Cardmaking & Papercraft.

I happened to find this magazine in Barnes and Noble last year and
have been subscribing ever since.

Each month, there's a free product as well as bonus paper 

for papercrafting..

For the month of April, they included this adorable set of kitty stamps..

And each month they show several projects using free product of the month...

which is perfect for someone like me who needs inspiration....

And step by step directions, although I have no interest in trying to figure out

how to convert millimeters into inches..

(I remember in school being told that eventually the US would be converting to the metric system.)

Here's a snapshot of the bonus papers...

always very colorful and pretty!

And again they show several projects using the papers...

This month, they happen to send me two magazines...

and I'd like to share this with one lucky person.

For your chance to win this magazine...

Leave a comment on this post(mandatory) and you don't have to be a follower...

For an extra chance, leave a comment on my Facebook page...

And I'll announce the winner next Friday!

And sorry but this will only be for people living in the US...

Good luck!

April Altered Calendar Page

Now that we're home from Easter and have lots of cute pictures of Macie.

I was able to complete the April calendar page....

I'm so glad I decided to make this calendar this year...

the kit is really very cute...

and it gives me a reason to shop through all of the embellishments that I already have...

Macie is just about five months old and loves to sit in this booster seat..

although it has a different name, the concept is the same...

when she gets excited, her cute little feet start to wiggle!

I took this picture of DH holding Macie while we were waiting

for everyone to get ready to go to church on Sunday...

The smiles weren't coming so easily as it was her naptime...

but she tolerated all the picture taking...

I added several Easter stickers, the colors match perfectly with the page.

I forgot to tell DH not to write on the page until I had pictures taken,

hence the roofer appt...now that it's springtime, our house

needs to be reshingled and we're working on getting estimates...

Here's the completed page...

so fun and full of love....

Thanks for stopping by...
