and now welcome Kirsty as our card guest designer this month!
 

Hi, I’m Kirsty & I live in Shropshire, UK. I’m Mom to three children, each eight years apart – eldest being 19, & have been with my partner, Ryan, for 16 years.  As you can imagine, they keep me rather busy, but in any free time I have I can be found crafting. This ranges from scrapbooking, or cardmaking to jewellery making, & many more that I dabble a little in.

I started making cards when my eldest was 5 when we attended a parent-child craft course, that was 14 years ago & I still enjoy finding new techniques & products to try.

I am a wife, mother and grandmother. I have been married to my wonderful husband since 1988. Between us we have three daughters, one son, two granddaughters and three grandsons. I started scrapping after the birth of our first grandson at the same time my daughter announced she was pregnant with our first granddaughter (they are now 17 and 16).

I am a huge Philadelphia Eagles fan and when they won the Super Bowl this year, I decided to do a scrapbook album about their road to victory.  I had these four photos printed from Facebook and they worked perfectly for this sketch.

March guest designer... Barb!

Please welcome Barb as our guest designer this month!

Hello! My name is Barb Prendergast. I'm a native Illinois girl but moved to Colorado in November 2015 with my husband of 33 years, Mike, and my mother, who lives with us.  I'm an avid scrapbooker as well as a wife, mother of four, grandmother of ten (with another one on the way!), and retired newspaper writer and public relations professional. I scrapbook because I feel it's important to chronicle my family's daily lives as well as the "big events," and also as a form of artistic expression. Our four children all are married with families, careers, mortgages and lives of their own. They're all back in the Midwest and we don't get to see each other as much as we would like, so photos and videos are important ways to share events in each others' lives.

I was really excited about using this double-page sketch because it's different from the usual sketch with photos on both sides of the layout. It was perfect for the border-strip piece of patterned paper that came in the doggy-themed "Bark!" collection from Echo Park. I replaced the chevron arrow on the right-hand page with a cute banner sticker from the kit and used one of the photo spots for my journaling. I loved adding a really BIG title, too!
