...and the award goes to....

What a pleasant surprise! Val from Val-Belle's Ramblings, has nominated me for a Liebster award! Thanks Val :)

Val is a super inspiring papercrafter who loves to teach other papercrafters in her hometown in South Africa AND she is on several Design Teams! We have shared a couple DT terms on Lets Scrap as well !!! Make sure you check out her blog too.

While I have received this award in the past, it is still always so lovely to know that others enjoy your Blog! I have many Blogs I like to follow, some I have even signed up to get email posts of their updates...something I like to do when I don't want to miss one of their posts!
