Welcome to the ScrapThat! 
March Kit Reveal and Blog Hop!! 

You should have come here from

If not then head back to Scrap That! to start the hop!

We are so excited to show you this beautiful and fresh kit! Not only does it feature papers from Meg's Garden, but Meg's Garden is also joining us on our hop and offering this gorgeous Spring Paisley Card Makers RAK on their blog!


The individual papers are the same as the 12” in design but are reduced to 6” for use on cards, OTP, tags etc.  Can also be used as part of a LO.  The pack comes with mini pics approx 2” which are perfect for the front or inside of a card, tags, OTP, as well as scrapbooking."

We are so thrilled to welcome the fabulously talented artist

She has made some glorious creations with our March kit and will have a tutorial for us all as well!

We are saying goodbye this month to one of our amazing ScrapThat! designers, Sandi Smith.



Sandi, you have been an amazing inspiration in both your stunningly creative projects and your sweet spirit. We wish you everything wonderful and know that you will succeed with everything you do! We were blessed to have you!

Our farewell to Sandi brings the excitement of introducing our new ScrapThat! designer and
Social Media Coordinator, 
~ Laura Gilhuly ~


Here is a little about Laura:
I am Laura (often know as AngelBear). I live in a small town in south-western Ontario with my family. I love to ink, tear, layer and distress my projects!  The dirtier the better.  I like to blog too which you can find at http://angelbearscraps.blogspot.com/ and you can see some of my layouts at scrapbook.com.  My family is the focus of my life, my inspiration, and my motivation to scrapbook.  
For the full bio on Laura see our March Sneak Peek post!
Welcome to the team, Laura!

This kit is truly beautiful! The soft greens and pinks are so much fun to work with! It was actually my first time working with Meg's Garden and I absolutely loved it!

Here are my projects for this month:

"Hiking" Layout
My first layout is based on my sketch for this month. I used the Main Kit, The Embellishment Add On and Flower Add On for this layout. The jute and cardboard are from my stash. The leaves and butterflies are all handmade by me. 

"Cherish" Layout
 I used the Main Kit, The Embellishment Add On and Flower Add On for this layout. The hemp cord, large pink Prima flower and cardboard are from my stash. Everything else is included in this month's kit.  These pictures were taken by my friend Hanay when I first held her newborn daughter. These pictures are so precious to me and it's a memory that I will always cherish!

Birthday Card Set

I used the Main Kit only for these cards. The doilies are handmade with the Cheery Lynn Designs Die English Tea Party Doily Die. Come back later this month and I'll show you how I made this card set using scraps after I was done working with the March Kit.
