The summer issue is, at long last, now available!
In case you do not yet have a “hard copy” in your hands, you may download the issue, in its entirety and for FREE, right here!
Also, we have a special announcement to make! Well, two special announcements actually! Please join us in welcoming two new members to our SCT team—Kathy Thompson Laffoley from Riverview, NB joins us as Contributing Photo Editor, and Lisa Kisch from Toronto, ON joins us as the newest member of our Design Team. Girls, we are thrilled to have you both and look forward to working with you on upcoming issues! And, because we know you want to get to know them both a little better, here is a bit of info about each:
Kathy Thompson Laffoley
Kathy lives in Riverview, New Brunswick with her husband and 2 teenage daughters who provide the inspiration for most of her pages. Kathy is a simple scrapbooker who has yet to meet a piece of striped paper that she hasn’t liked! She believes that if you have a good photo, then you have the foundation for a great page. Kathy loves to capture everyday moments and honest reactions with her camera, and create pages that document the feelings those photos evoke. She has a nasty Diet Coke habit that she has no intention of breaking and has never turned down a handful of peanut M&Ms! She invites you to stop by her blog and say hello: www.kathythompsonlaffoley.typepad.com
Lisa Kisch
Lisa loves documenting every day life through scrapbooking. Little moments that would otherwise be forgotten are her passion! A stage actress in her pre-baby life, she is now staying home with her two little girls. Lisa loves photography and learns more about using her camera every day. She is a very slow scrapper, but occasionally challenges herself to complete several layouts in an evening. Here's to working outside your comfort zone! She, too, invites you to stop by her blog and say hi: www.lisakisch.typepad.com
Now, we will sign off for today and leave you with the latest issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today to read, to bookmark, and hopefully, to savour. See you tomorrow with a GIVEAWAY from a brand new company! Don't miss it!
Ooooh, two of my favourite Canadian gals joining the team on my favourite Canadian magazine. I am just soooooo happy for Kathy and Lisa. Congratulations! :)
