Aug - Sept 08 Inspirational Scrapper

Artz de Scrap's Chosen Inspirational Scrapper for August 08 is

Michelle
Photobucket

I love to spend time on scrapping when I am not busy. Preserving memories is very important to me. My only wish is to "infect" more scrappers to this beautiful and yet meaningful hobby. Thats my current mission in scrapbooking. With that mission in mind - I have started a blog called Scrapping Inspirations ,featuring my fellow Malaysian scrappers to help promote the art in my country.
