October guest designer: Phillis

Welcome Phillis as our October double page guest designer!



I am an elementary librarian working in a rural school in upstate New York that loves to scrap.   I have 2 teenagers and a husband of 21 years that understands my obsession with scrapbooking.   I began to create scrapbook pages about 10 years also so that I could chronicle my children's events.  Now they are teenagers and I am still working on their photos.  It is great when I can tell the story that goes along with the photos.

Here is our October double page sketch:


and here is what Phillis did with our sketch:


You can fit so many photos on this page! I love it.

We'd like to see how you interpret our sketch this month. You have until the end of the month to upload your projects. One winner from each sketch will be invited back as a guest designer in December! Good luck!

October guest designer: Susanne

We're pleased to announce Susanne as our October guest designer!


Hello, Susanne here.  I am a wife and mother of 2 grown children, living the empty nest retired life with my husband of 30+ years in Indiana.  I have been blogging and sharing my scrapbooking online since 2009.  I have been playing with papers and pretties even longer - beginning when my kiddos were very young.  I especially like making up my own kits from my more-than-ample stash.  I love starting with a good sketch too.  I am happy to be guest designing here at Stick It Down. Thanks for the invitation.  Do come and visit me at my blog or on Facebook, because I always love a good chat about scrapbooking.

This is our October single page sketch:
Here is Susanne's page:


I love this sketch and Susanne's interpretation. You can see more of Susanne's page HERE. It's a beautiful tribute page. Thank you for joining us this month, Susanne!
