Monika Martinson

My name is Monika (Moma). I live in Sweden, just outside of Stockholm with my daughter and her father. I work full time at one of Sweden’s biggest companies with communication. I started scrapbooking shortly after my daughter was born in 2004 and I´ve been totally addicted since then.

Any tips for a New Scrapper? Don’t get a lot of stuff immediately, get a few nice paper collections, a few decorations and give your self time to find out what you like to work with, what is your own style. My first layout was a scrap lift and the second to. It was the perfect way to get started. Sketches are also often helpful.
