12x12 Scrapbook Page/Contest



My FAVORITE local Scrapbook store "Paper Tales", recently had a scrapbook page contest. The owner, Cass (the sweetest lady ever!), was blessed with a new grand-baby, Samantha. For the contest, we were to make a 12x12 scrapbook page of Samantha. I had never made a 12x12 page before and decided to step out of the box and give it a try. Well, I was so EXCITED to receive an email from Paper Tales today, there were over 40 entries for the contest and I couldn't believe that my page came in first place! When I stopped by the store to drop my page off, I had a look at the all the entries and there were so many amazing pages. Thanks to Paper Tales.....it was a lot of fun and I hope Samantha will enjoy her book when she gets older!

Oh and you ALL need to check out Paper Tales etsy store. They have some really neat vintage stuff for all your altered/mixed media art. Click here, PAPER TALES, to see their store!

Thanks for looking!
