Diane wrote an email today that we will be learning the "shaving cream" technique. She also said to wear old clothes because it will be messy. We will be making 2 cards so come at 1 pm, bring $10 and your standard scrapbook kit with adhesive, paper trimmer, scissors, etc.

Welcome to the Scrapshack Girls Blog

In early 2009 a group of women agreed to meet monthly to share their love of paper crafting. We voted on our name to be Scrapshack Girls where we Scrap Craft Relax And Play. We meet in a country home in Abita Springs, Louisiana that has an unattached craft house that is set up with a kitchenette, satellite TV, air-conditioning and heating, bathroom and plenty of elbow room to craft. So far we have met twice. At the February meeting we stamped with Staz On ink on glass slides and painted them on the reverse. They were trimmed in adhesive metal tape to give the illusion of stained glass. We also painted and stamped the matching mailers. We liked the slide with the frosted background the most. At the March meeting the Scrapshack Girls made a friendship box that opens with mini drawers attached. Everything was made out of paper, chipboard and red line tape. It stays closed with a matching lid and base that doubles as a stand-alone box.
Keep checking back for more updates.
