Firstly our Creative Team Promo for the month we say HI to Felicity Wilson...
"Hi, I am Felicity Wilson, a mother to 2 gorgeous little boys (yes biased too!!), Brae 18 months and Piper 3 weeks old, married to a wonderful husband, Brett. I am a stay at home mum and love every minute of it, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love watching my sons grow and change everyday. I live in a small country town in central QLD. I love to shop for anything.
I have been scrapping for a few years now, but the last 3 years as seen me be a little more ‘serious’, if you could say it like that.. Since having Brae in 2009, I have now really found a style and enjoy scrapping even more. Maybe it’s because I am not scrapping photo’s of myself. Haha. I get so much inspiration everyday from just being around my boys, which is what influences my Layouts and the design.
I also love my camera, canon 5D and love it. It goes with me everywhere and just like the nappy bag..
As you can see, scrapping is my life and the way I live everyday. Everyday I am doing something scrappy, from simply editing a photo to being online.
I am looking forward to all the challenges that this will bring, the way in which I am going to grow in the scrappy world and meeting and making awesome friends."
Here are two of Felicity's layouts...
APRIL"S SPONSORS ARE....
Scrap Therapy...
Danny and I purchased Scraptherapy as a small, pre-existing online store in July 2008, as a small part-time venture. Since then we have seen amazing growth, now offering over 10,000 products.We have closed our other business to focus wholly on Scraptherapy, opening a Paper Craft Bricks and Mortar store in Babinda, FNQ to run in conjunction with the online site. During the last 2+ years we have learnt a whole load of stuff about e-commerce, scrapbooking, cardmaking and the people who love these hobbies.
At www.scrapthearpy.com.au you will find a fantastic gallery filled with inspiring ideas, a great community of ladies and an odd guy or two in our online forum. Our Design Team backed up by our Big Sisters offer regular competitions and challenges to help you find your mojo, and a chance to win a shopping voucher or two. Then of course there is the shop where we hope you will find all the latest and greatest products at great prices. If you can’t find what you are looking for feel free to contact me at lee-anne@scraptherapy.com.au and check to see if we can get it in for you. We often can.
All our freight is fixed at $6 whether you choose our express post service or our postage with insurance option, and orders over $60 will get a little bonus pressie popped in with their order.
I love scrapbooking and Danny can whip up a pretty good card, but our true passion is excelling in great customer service, which we hope to continue to do for years to come.Scrap Therapy has donated a $25.00 voucher.
