Meet Our Guest Blogger and Sneak #3!

Hello...It's Friday!!!! And we have a treat for you...it's Guest Blogging Time from our TSR Favorite!!!! So meet........

LAURA!!!

So, my name is Laura Kayra. I am from Finland but moved to Melbourne, Australia, a few years ago, together with my partner Paul and our gorgeous cat Sokeri. She is our baby and we love her to bits! Smile She has done a great job training us to do whatever she wants, whenever she wants. What a spoiled little cat she is.

I have been scrapping for about 4 years now. Before that I mainly made cards. Once we moved here and I started visiting a nearby scrapbook shop, I just had to give scrapping a go... and of course, I got hooked! I looooove playing with paper. I think that is my favourite part of scrapbooking.. looking at all the pretty papers.. cutting.. glueing.. it is all fun! Oh, and all the pretty colours! I have mainly scrapped 12x12 layouts, but now I want to start making letter size ones only.

What I love about ScrapRoom:
The ScrapRoom is my absolute favorite place. I was really wanting to buy scrapping kits and looked at a lot of different shops, but I never seemed to find anything I liked. The kits I saw had too many papers from one range and big packets of embellies etc. Then I found my way to ScrapRoom and immediately fell in love with the kits. I love it that each month I get 4 different kits in one. There are so many pretty papers! I also actually love it that we get selection of embellishments. There are always enough to use with the papers, but not so many that there would always be lots of leftovers. Tammy does an amazing job at picking the papers and embellishments for us.

I suffer from anxiety and get easily overwhelmed. I have so many supplies and often, trying to start scrapping is too overwhelming because there is so much choice on what supplies to use. The ScrapRoom kits are perfect for me as when I start scrapping, I just pull out one bag and make a layout with whatever I find there. I love challenging myself to make it work! When I am finished, I just shovel everything back into the bag and put it away. So easy and clean and not the least bit overwhelming.

I also really love the choice of additional kits. If you scrap more, you can pick extra cardstock and papers as well as embellishments. Of course, if you love stamping, there is always something cute there for you to try! I don’t think that there is anything at all that I don’t like about ScrapRoom! Even the price of the kits is fantastic! Yippee!

5 random facts about me:
1. I love running around the house with my head down and arms stretched behind me, pretending to be superman.
2. I looooooooooooove pretty lights on trees! I actually squeal with excitement whenever we drive past a tree like that.
3. I consider myself a fairly good driver, but I cannot reverse park... nor reverse in a straight line.
4. I just tried welding for the first time and now I would love to learn more DIY stuff.
5. I don’t like mushrooms. The texture makes me gag. Eeek!

And here are few of Laura's fabulous layouts...


Thanks Laura! And Sneak #3.......
