Announcing the new Queen of the Kit

With all our computer difficulties over the past couple of months we missed announcing last month's Queen of the Kit and it's time to announce this month's winner.

This month's Queen of the Kit is Tara Nardella. Tara managed to make two layouts with this month's kit, one featuring Cousins and the other an Easter layout. Well done Tara.

The winner for February was Maria Pendrigh with her lovely family layout. Congratulations Maria. Both Maria and Tara win their next Royal Stash Kits for free and have their layouts featured on our blogs.

The next Royal Stash Kit will be released tomorrow, 1st April. Just remember all you have to do to go into the draw to win your next Royal Stash Kit for free is to purchase this month's kit, create a layout and bring it back into The Scrapbook Princess by the 25th April. It's that easy.
