As always we have a guest designer joining us. Please help us welcome Reina Oshiro  to our April 1st challenge!!


I will let Reina tell you a bit about herself....

"This is from Reina. I am living in Osaka, Japan with husband, one daughter and one son. The subject of my crops are the records of daily and growing process of my children. Thanks to the scrapbooking after childbirth, I have been able to spend a valuable life with children. The cropping time between housework and child care will heal my fatigue.
My style of scrapbooking is composed of the layer and cutout of patterned papers. I like to put the various colors together with the lovely designed papers also. "

Here is Reina's gorgeous layout based on our sketch.


Thank you for joining us Reina, it was great to have you share your art with us!
