Hi, My name is Odette and I have been addicted to cards, crafts & photo albums for as long as I can remember. When I was at school, I would always be making my friends & family cards, & all my primary school mementoes were promptly displayed alongside photos as soon as I was able to. Photo Albums have become a major “habit” of my life. In many cases I would have my holiday photo album finished before I got home from the holiday.  Although I have tried many different crafts over the years, my papercrafts were always there.

I was introduced to the "formal" world of scrapbooking around 1999, and it was nice to know that my hobby had a name!
Although I am constantly looking for new techniques, my personal scrapbooking techniques, don’t really fall into one category.

After searching the internet for several years, I had found a company I loved, and so my business began! Over the next 3 years I was teaching scrapbooking & papercrafts with Party Plan workshops. My business grew, but it was missing what I considered a very important tool..

Stamps!

I had started looking at a company that had an AMAZING combination of Stamps, inks, pens, cardstock & patterned paper that were not available in the shops. Although I tried to join the company, I was not allowed to be involved with two party plan companies at once, so I initially settled for just purchasing & being a hostess with them. I must say, after being a hostess, I was VERY impressed by the gifts that were offered!
I had REALLY wished there was a way I could combine the two!

Well..... you need to be careful about what you wish for!!

Not long after that, the company I was originally dealing with, no longer offered the benefits that comes with the party plan business I so loved, so the choice was obvious, I COULD move…

and I HAVE moved!

I am now a fully fledged
