Our Guest Designer for December is Wanda Heron from Canada..
Hello,
my name is Wanda Heron. I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. I have
been married 22+ years to a special man, Mark, and we have one son
Mitchell. Mitchell is 16, driving now, and generally
growing up too fast! Both of my ‘boys’ provide constant inspiration and
encourage me to challenge myself to do and be the best person I can be.
I have been told I have an infectious laugh and a warm spirit. I try to
honor these traits at every opportunity.
I
have always had a creative heart. Even from an very early age the right
side of my brain was definitely stronger than my left! I was introduced
to scrapbooking by my wonderful mother-in-law
when my son was just little. But, returning to University when Mitchell
was 1 year old put other things first. About 2 years ago a good friend
asked me if I would like to attend a “Weekend Scrapganza”. I packed up
my little bag and off I went to give my hand
a try at this art form. I was flabbergasted by the volume of people and
the amount of luggage they brought. Now I am one of them – rolling my
multiple suitcases of paper and supplies to Crops whenever I can!
My
style is ever evolving and is only slightly dampened by the fact that my
one child is a boy. I put flowers and lace wherever I can! I like
vintage and shabby chic, and combining with these
two just the right amount of ‘grunge’. Most of all my pages are a
story, and in the best way I can they retell the moment, the feeling,
the emotions from the past. I try my best to not be held to any
conventions of what things should look like and follow the
map that is in my head. I love completing challenges not just for the
great ideas they provide but also the deadline that is put in front of
me.
Scrap the Boys is a favorite blog of mine. The design team is
fabulous and their challenges have great variety.
I hope you will join in on the fun of showing us your non-traditional
Christmas color scheme. Here is my take on it.
If you like there are
close-ups of this on my blog

OUR DECEMBER CHALLENGE...
This month we want to see you create a layout using a Christmas themed photo and a Non Traditional colour scheme.
*Please make sure when you link your layout that you add your country as well as your name, you have until 11.59pm December 31st.

OUR GUEST DESIGNER THIS MONTH IS....
SARAH GROEN - NZ
I
live in Auckland NZ with my hubby of 16 years (Mark) and my 6 gorgeous
kids ranging in age from 21 to 3 years - so lots of scrappy inspiration
there :))) I am a stay at home mum and since I discovered scrapbooking 6
years ago I have been a hopeless addict. I am currently on the design
team for Kraft it Up Challenge blog, a NZ scrapbook store Scottie Crafts,, the Australian based
companies "Purple Pumpkin" and ‘Rasberry’, and the on-line challenge
blogs “Frosted Designs”, “Stuck Sketches” and “Another Freaking Scrappy
Challenge”. I have been published many times both in NZ and overseas and
in 2009 I was lucky enough to be chosen as an Elite Team member for
Up2Scrap, NZs premiere scrapbooking magazine.
I
also love working from sketches and putting my own twist on them. I
regularly contribute to challenge blogs and particularly enjoy creating
multi-photo layouts. I really admire the work of all the members of your
current design team, and I hope that my own style will complement the
amazing talent that you already have. My pages often have a whimsical
feel to them but I love to try out new techniques and my style changes
according to my inspiration.
Here is Sarah's creation for this months challenge...
