Also included are 6 puffy felt clouds, 5 co-ordinating buttons, 2 curled ribbons, 3 colours of ricrac, a flat ribbon, a ruffled ribbon, a journalling block, 2 pins, a stitched frame and a gorgeous floral spray.

Here’s the alphabet that comes with the kit:

If you’re interested in trying digital scrapbooking but aren’t sure how to start, then very soon we’ll be starting up regular FREE tutorials to help you along.

If you’re a hybrid scrapper (ie, you adjust your pictures before printing them or do your journalling etc on the computer and then scrap them traditionally), then you should sign up for our Cropstar competition starting on November 1st. You can win an awesome Wacom Drawing Tablet or some fabulous goodies from Embellished, who do just amazing kits!
