Scrapbooking Giveaway Day
Lisa Truesdell just launched her mini-workshop at Two Peas. It’s called Divide and Conquer and it’s all about scrapbooking with pockets, creating a smaller format album and making sure you actually finish that mini project you keep saying you’ll start! It’s normally $12 but this weekend I have one free place to give away to a reader.
To enter, just leave a comment on this post listing something (anything!) you would like to finish.
Entries close at midnight Sunday UK time this week, so don’t wait to enter.
Good luck!
Congratulations to Sue SG, who wins last week’s prize provided by adorable bead company Cute Cornwall. (By the way, Cute Cornwall have added some very sweet rubber stamps to their shop and I adore their crazily cute Hello Kitty charms!)
Sue, please email me (shimelle at gmail dot com) with your address.
There’s a new giveaway every Friday night, so check back next week for another chance to win just by leaving a comment.

Hi Shimelle – I would so love some help from Lisa and her course ‘Divide and Conquer’ – I so often get overwhelmed by my scrapbooking ideas – and I’m 4 years overdue to do a ‘retirement’ album celebrating my husband’s 30 years with his Company – I would love to surprise him with a finished album, one day!!
Many thanks for this opportunity.
