This post is the tenth in a series. You might like to go back and read the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and nineth instalments. If you would like your scrapbooking blog featured in this series, read this.
Our tenth featured reader’s blog belongs to Leanne Payne. Leanne is the owner online store Joyful Scraps…

We asked readers to tell us a little about themselves. Leanne says:
"Well as my blog bio says, I am just an ordinary confused mother of 5 who is passionate about Scrapbooking! So passionate that I started Joyful Scraps. The Joyful Scraps blog is a way of connecting with my customers and keeping in touch with the women who I have become friends with all over the world through the wonderful art of scrapbooking.
I am passionate about scrapbooking but I have a confession – here is the thing, I know what scrapbookers are suppose to say, hey for years I have been saying it myself. But now it is just time to confess.
I scrapbook for me!
Oh look yes, some time in the future, the very very distant future, I hope that when I am gone, some one will see all the value of the stories in them. Might even be a bit awed by the work they took to create and may very well decide to treasure them as a part of their family history. Laugh at the hair styles and cry at the times we had. But right now while I am here, alive and kicking and making the scrapbooks – well, I am doing it for me!"
On my visit, I noticed this calendar project that Leanne made last year (oh actually I think I mean 2007). Lovely! I want one!

I also came across these Christmas cards that Leanne made whilst teaching a card class…



Fabulous! If you’d like to see what Leanne is up to next, visit her blog here.
