Blog birthday and a giveaway!

This time last year I wrote my first blog post. I wasn't sure if it was something I would keep up or if I would enjoy it, but after reading many others blogs for a while I thought I would give it a go and I'm so glad I did! I never imagined when I started this little space I would meet so many lovely people and make so many wonderful friends.

This blog was intended to be a record of both my family and my scrapbooking, something I really enjoyed  at the time! But it has since become a kind of scrapbook of it own, an online journal of the things we do to look back on.

Anyhow this year I'm hoping to do a little more scrapbooking, I sometimes miss the crafty side - the cutting and sticking and the pretty papers. I thought I would try a smash book to keep all my bits and pieces in, somewhere to stick in my Instax photos and all the little bits and bobs I collect.

I also bought another Smash book and a few bits as a giveaway, as a thank you for all your visits and your wonderful comments and support over the last year.

The prize is: a mod style smash book, patterned tape, label clips, plastic pockets and giant bands to hold the book together. It would make a great journal or maybe a place to keep recipes or magazine cuttings.

If you would like to enter just leave a comment below and be a follower of scraps of us. The giveaway will end on the 24th January and I will pick a winner at random on the 25th Jan. I am happy to post worldwide. Good luck lovely people x
