February 1st Sketch

Good evening

Me oh my, I'm running out of mojo at the moment but a new sketch will surely fix that no? I hope that you can find inspiration in our latest sketch being released.

I also want to introduce our February Guest Designer, Mariko Hisazumi.

Hi! My name is Mariko Hisazumi and I’m really excited to be guest designing at Stuck Sketches.

I live in Japan with my wonderful husband and 2 children, a boy and a girl(she was born just in October).

When my son was 1 year old, I began scrapbooking. Everyday I enjoy it with a cup of coffee after the children are sleeping.

I love using many embellishments,especially flowers and metals.

Thank you for inviting me as GD for February! Can’t wait to see your layouts.
