Welcome to the Paperhaus Spring Fling Hop!! -

Hello and Welcome to the PaperHaus Spring Fling Blog Hop!
 You should have arrived here from Rommel's blog.

We are excited that you joined us in celebrating the release of the Spring Issue of PaperHaus Magazine! We are so happy to share all of the amazing projects and inspiration in it with you!

I must say the editors and contributors have outdone themselves one more time. 

I may even be so bold as to say this could be the best one yet......

I am sure you'll all agree the cover is yummy and now you are all longing to have a look inside!

HERE's the link.

Look carefully among all the amazing pages in the magazine and you may see a name you recognize,..lol! Yup,..me! And I am in very good company...

I am so happy to be one of the contributors to PaperHaus Magazine and I have three projcts in this issue. I have a layout for the Paperhues on page 38, one for the Dreamsketch on page 51, and also on page 57 a framed something for the TrendyHaus article about washitape.

I hope you like them,... and there is so much MOOOORE!

I have a layout to show you that I made for Les Papiers de Pandore. I used the delightful collection Little Winter Circus. I made it in a more clean and simple style than my usual one, but I like to mix things up and not always do the same kind of layouts.

Below you can see a close up of what the stitched 'beams' look like.

Below you can see a photo of my giveaway for the hop.
For a chance to win to win it I would like you to:

Hello all my bloggy friends.

The cold is creeping up on us here in the northern hemisphere and the days have become much shorter in only a few weeks. It is hard getting used to the small amount of daylight we get and that it is dark at four in the afternoon. It is often dark when I leave the house to go to work and dark when I get back home again.

It is nice just to stand at my scraptable knowing I can not do any outside jobs kin the garden etc. But I can be scrapping!

Today I have teamed up with the wonderful Stop and Scrap web shop in the US.

They are generously offering a discount for everybody of $5 off a $25 order.
