Welcome to the Scrapbags Blog

We are a very friendly group of scrappers who meet each month in Hertford. We chat, scrap, share ideas and techniques and generally have a great crop which usually flies by far too quickly.

We love to meet fellow scrappers so please feel free to stop by and meet us (dates & location to the right), or if you'd like more details please drop me a line at scrapbags@ntlworld.com.

Wow What a Whopper!!!

 Yesterday the Scrapbags came out in force and convened on Hertford Heath for our February crop, and all I can say is WOW and THANKYOU for your support.  We haven't had that may croppers for some time. I would like to think it was in response to my wonderful kit designs (yeah right!)



I just lurrrrve these Echo Park Victorian garden papers.  Aren't they yummy?

I must admit that the biggest attraction yesterday was the MARVELLOUS Merly Impressions.  Chrissy Paul and Merly kindly brought along their gorgeous goodies for us to drool over, and boy, did we!!!

Our next crop is on 17th March, just a week before our Spring retreat so I am anticipating that we'll be a tad quieter.  If you'd like to come and play please drop me a line - scrapbags@ntlworld.com.  You will be very welcome.


Happy Scrapping

Snow Day

Anna's school is closed so I have no option but to stay home and scrap a little and catch up on a few tasks - like updating this blog.

I cannot believe it's February already, and I haven't even posted January's layout showing Anna with the puppies (sadly not ours).





Would you believe she used to be frightened of dogs? And now she adores her Somer & Dipper. Not only did I get to use photos from a CD of images given to us for Christmas, but I also used my fabby present from the lovely Sheila and Jan, a Sizzix stamp & die set which I know will be appearing on a lot of my layouts.

I've spent the morning working on February class kit using Echo Park Victoria Garden papers (photos later), and also bagging up Friday Freebie kits for our Spring Retreat.  Just need to finalise the 2 way kit and we'll be all ready for our first weekend at Bovingdon.

Gotta love snow days!!

Happy scrapping
