Help Us Welcome Our September 2015 Guest Craft Designer!

Please help us welcome our Guest Designer for September 2015!

Screenname: Cnmommy

First name: Crystal

Favorite Color: Red for décor but blue for everything else

My craft supply 'must have': Now this is not a fair question! I cannot possibly pick one item (can anyone? LOL!) I will go with two - double sided patterned paper and my Silhouette Cameo, with those two items I could make just about anything I needed/wanted.

I mostly create: I currently seem to be making a great deal of single layouts with multiple 3X4 pictures. I love combining 2-6 4X6 photos on one 4X6 to get as many photos on a single layout as I can.

I still have a soft spot for double layouts! Creating home décor items also allows me to express myself and make pretty things!

Layout: 'Don't Be Crabby' (Sketch Challenge)

The Story: At the very end of summer these two could not get along for anything. After numerous redirections, time outs, exercise outside etc I could not take it anymore and forced them to hug one another for five solid minutes. You would have thought I was making them torturing them or something. 

They then had to say two nice things about the other. It actually worked and we have only had to mention it once more! Funny since they LOVE to hug cuddle and love on one another!

Help Us Welcome This Month's Guest Craft Designer!

Please help us welcome our Guest Designer for July 2015!

Screenname:  1scrappymom

First name: Shannon

Favorite Color: yellow

My craft supply 'must have':  I am a sucker for patterned paper!!  I also think I might be the only person left in the world that still uses adhesive squares as my go-to adhesive. 

I mostly create: 2 page layouts – mostly theme-park and travel-related

Guilty pleasure:   Going on scrapbook retreats or shopping trips with friends. I am also a huge fan of Orange is the New Black.

BIO:   My name is Shannon Blinn.  I have been married to my best friend, Shane, for nearly 23 years now.  We have two children.  Bailee is our daughter and she is 19.  Logan is our son and he is 13.  

We have FOUR dogs.  We normally only have two beagles at a time, but this year we decided to look into rescue and now have two, very, large, ornery lab-mix puppies (are they still puppies if they are over 50 pounds??).  I am a licensed, master-level social worker by profession.  Although my passion is in helping children and families, I also have an artistic side and love to use that to document the stories of my own life and the lives of my family.

My craft supply 'must have': Thickers. Lots and lots of Thickers
