June guest designer... Debbie!

Please welcome Debbie!

I'm a 48 year old mum of two teenagers, living in Milton Keynes in the UK. I work full time and have been a keen crafter for many years with anything from cross stitch to crochet in the mix. In the last 20 or so years I would say my focus has been on papercrafts - card making and scrapbooking (though I don't tend to scrapbook as much as I'd like). I'm a member of two card design teams (CRAFT and Dream Valley).

Debbie made a video for this card and you can view it HERE.

My eldest daughter is taking her GCSE examinations at the moment and I wanted to be able to give her something at the end of all of her hard work to say how brilliant she is. My initial thought was to use the left section middle strip for ribbon, but when I got the papers out the bows were there and I thought that this was perfect! Having a mathematical logical mind the easiest way to get the panelled areas was to create triangles and put a square over them. Simple - no messing about doing lots of measuring.

and she also made a second card!

June guest designer... Sharon!

A little about me, I’ve been married to my wonderful hubby Lee for 16 years and we have two gorgeous boys - Alexander & Nicholas and a beautiful daughter Cassandra.  I started scrapbooking when my eldest (now 15) was born as it was something I could do with my amazing Mum.  My family tends to be the focus of my scrapbooking. I love to ensure there’s a button or two on my layouts and at the moment, I’m experimenting with stencils and paint.

In between juggling my family and finding the time to scrap, I’m busy preparing for September 2019 as that sees me start my year’s training to become a teacher.

I have a BLOG where I post my layouts and general life stuff too. Please feel free to check it out.

With regards to my GD layout, I always have loads of photos of any specific event to scrap, so I LOVE double layouts.  I have recently found myself the owner of a number of reels of washi tape, which is something that is not usually on my layouts, but I thought I’d give them a try, hence the corner washi tape strips.  I’m also playing around with mixed media at the moment, so I used some texture paste and a Tim Holtz mask too.
