Jungle Scrapper - handmade card queen!

Here at Lipgloss and Razorblades we are doing a great new giveaway from another awesome crafter! Let me introduce you to Rachel from Jungle Scrapper who is a rockin' stay-at-home mama and wife to a Marine who, like many of us, loves being crafty and creative in her spare time!

www.junglescrapper.etsy.com

Right now her Etsy store is chock full of the most detailed and well-crafted cards and tags you will find around! And dont let the name fool you, Jungle Scrapper has a little something for everyone from safari themes, cupcakes and skulls. I have seen them in person and I was impressed by their quality and her attention to detail! I have done my fair share of paper crafting like scrapbooking, card making, decoupage etc but her cards really show her expertise in this area!

Rachel uses the cutest ribbon and embellishments! And at such an affordable price you can have a beautifully made card that is fit to give at any special event. Cards and tags are not just for giving either people! For the less crafty people, they would be easy to use in your scrapbooking or in a frame paired up with some photos!



Ok, so dont just take my word for it, check out her shop and leave a quick comment here to win this badass girly skull card!
