Hooray! Help Us Welcome our February 2017 Guest Designer!

The busy months of December and January are finally behind us and it's time to get back to our Guest Designer Spotlight!

Her name is Chris (screenname EMMAPAIGE). She's freshly retired which leaves her a bit more time to create and scrapbook every day!

Here are a few things about Chris:

"Must Have" Craft Supply: Patterned Paper(s)

What inspires her: "The ACOT Gallery and challenges; process videos and CHALLENGES (of course)


A little bit about Chris: "My favorite subjects are my five grandchildren, my children and my husband (and occasionally me). We do not have any pets (we had three dogs at one point) but all four of our children have one or multiple dogs."

---

She selected the new Sweet Nothings collection from Fancy Pants Designs to create several scrapbook layouts. Be sure to check them all out by visiting the A Cherry On Top Crafts Guest Designer announcement in the gallery. 

"My Favorite Place":

Retirement definitely has its perks and getting to stay in bed a little longer is one of them! Chris journals, "Now I can stay in our new Tempur-Pedic bed a little longer, watch som eTV and catch up with the world on my iPad..."

"Happy Mail"

Who doesn't love getting new craft supplies in the mail? Chris captured the joy of happy mail in this layout. We <3 it!

To see more of her layouts, click HERE and don't forget to join in on all of her inspiring challenges during the month of February! Visit our Contests & Challenges Message Board forum for more information.

Welcome Chris!

Excited crowds gather in front of the Graphic 45 booth hoping to grab some giveaway goodies!

The Doodlebug Design booth was extra bright and so cute! We love spending time with the Doodlebug team. They're pretty amazing people.

Adorable cards featuring new Doodlebug products decorate the booth

This guy was HUGE! Some of the booths were pretty mind blowing.

 

We're so excited about all of the new Prima products on their way to A Cherry On Top Crafts. Expect to see new gels, paper collections, PLANNERS and flowers (of course)!
