Now let's get started with the challenge, here is your sketch....


As always we have a guest designer joining us. Please help us welcome Heather Bensley  to our June 15th challenge!!


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

"Hi, I am thrilled to be the guest designer for this month at Stuck?! Challenge. I live in the beautiful North East of Victoria in the city of Wodonga. I started scrapping 14 years ago after the birth of my first grandchild. I wasn't looking for a new craft but this was thrust upon me with the desire to record all the aspects of this new little person in our lives. And so with a total now of five delightful grandchildren, who never cease to amaze and astound me, I am never short of inspiration. Although these five little superstars are my main focus, I also have a husband and three daughters and son-in-laws who sometimes get a look in on a page. I hope you enjoy my page and maybe get some inspiration from it."

Here is Heather's layout based on our sketch.


Thank you for joining us Heather, we love your page - the masking and embellishing are so beautiful!!

Now lets have a look at our gorgeous DT reveals (in alphabetical order!)....
