Featured Guest at Idea's for Scrapbookers!! I was recently asked to do a guest spot at the wonderful blogsite 'Idea's for Scrapbookers' hosted by Pam Callaghan. This is such a fun site with loads of inspirational ideas!! I decided to share my Polished Stone tutorial inwhich I showed an easy way to make faux polished stones with some ink and cardstock. I did up a little card using pink carstock this time to make a pink granite look as an example.

You can find this awesome site at this link Idea's for Scrapbookers. Grab a nice cup of tea and browse this wonderful site to get your inspiration for a fun scrappy weekend!

Thanks for having a peek!
