Cards and RAK's

A few cards that I made on Saturday,











Gotta love October Afternoon Papers, and rubon's :) only extras are Carolee's and Basic Grey letters.





RAK time


This is what I've been promising for the past couple of weeks. Finally had time today to sit down and sort everything out.



This is the nappy box full



Love/Wedding pack



Boy Pack



Girl Pack



Card/Embellishment Pack




Chirstmas Pack


Open to everyone, just leave me a comment in this post and you'll go into the running to receive one of these packs. I'll be leaving this open until the 27th April, you can 'enter' more than once, but only once a day, lol, understand that


Thanks for playing along

xx

I cna't believe what a freebie will do to people 16 comments for this one. Great idea though gets people looking at your blog which by the way I love. Always pop in to have a look what you have been up to. Love your work.

Gosh Nicole!
It is so lovely to see someone being so generous - I have come to slowly realise that 'scrappers' have gentle, kind and giving hearts ♥
I would love to be there when the lucky people open their parcels full of goodies - the faces would be priceless ☺

Leanne Kroschel[the boxx] said...

Wow how exciting! You are so generous!!! I always find it a challenge to do pages with paper, I have not picked out myself[ my daughter sometimes gives me stuff or we swap] It makes you step out of your comfort zone and the results are fantastic! So -- yes I would love to win one.Thanks for this chance, Cheers Leanne
