Never believed I would go as far as this!!!
The competition is very tough and there are so many talented scrappers entering the Supreme Team contest at GDS.
We were given a very lovely kit Possibilities Page Kit by the famous Andrea Gold.

My little Princess

Most of my layouts are about my granddaughter Ina and this one is no exception....LOL
Half of the journaling is in Swedish - it is a poem about a princess.
Translation goes like this:
I know a little princess.
She has no crown of gold.
There is no prince who fight
the dragons for her sake.

My little wonderful cutie pie.
You have filled my heart with love and joy.
Could not imagine how infinitely much a grandchild means.
I may enjoy your soft arms, the kisses you "blow" and your laughter.
I love the time we get to spend together.
You are so precious, my little Ina

More stunning kits @ Sunshine Studio Scraps

1. Amanda Kay - Autumn Breeze

Here we have a stunningly rich kit, both in colors and elements - there are 14 Textured/Patterned Papers and over 60 elements.
I am not a fall person at all, but with this kit i could scrap both fall nature photos and photos that need bright colors but in a moderate way. There is also those darker papers that will give you the "mystical" look as well as for a more "deep" style. And the elements - well, what can I say - those leaves and flowers are just gorgeous!!!!

Urban Solitude by Moon Scraps and Franziska


WOW, this is a must have for those scrapping for teenage boys and especially those who doesn't always want everything in blue.
I love the funkiness and urban style.
It is a kit I also would like to use (although I don't have boys to scrap about)

Go and have a look at the kit - especially the alphas are incredible cool -
