I’m a closet scrapbooker. Closet, because sadly that’s where the books I’ve done end up. I’ve started and stopped scrapbooking lots over the years. I always start with good intentions. I go to the store and buy loads of paper when it’s 50% off or something. You will now find stacks and stacks of it in my basement. Then I get stickers. Those might be in a box somewhere from the last move? And don’t even get me started on the pens. My handwriting is absolutely atrocious, so why did I think that I would even use all of those pens?  The computer printer is much more effective. When it comes to scrapbooking I just don’t think that I have that creative edge. I lack the eye for that sort of thing. Sure I’ve got all the supplies, but putting them together to make a work of art? Not so much. I’m just not very good at that sort of thing. Now if I had a kit… Hmmm. A kit. Now there’s a dandy idea! In fact… with a scrapbooking kit from say Express The Moment I would get that gorgeous work of art and I would get to avoid buying the stacks of paper, stickers, pens. You name it. So with Express The Moment I would actually save money! :)  Who’s sold and I haven’t even begun to show the gorgeous works of art yet? Now I know that many of you are shouting, “Me! Me! Me!”, but I’m still going to show you all this dandiness. Okay are you ready?  Brace yourselves for the works of art!!!
I’m seriously in love with these Recipe Kits from Express The Moment:
