April 1st Sketch

Good afternoon.

I hope that you are having a fabulous long weekend. I've been busy working but I've had a great time with my family whilst I have been home.

Today we have a new Guest Designer to introduce and a new sketch with Creative Team samples to share.

Our Guest Designer for April is the fabulous Patricia Roebuck from the USA.

Hello!  My name is Patricia Roebuck.  I'm from Louisiana.  I've been married for 22 years.  My husband and I adopted our daughter, Emma, in July of 2009, so we consider ourselves a Chinese Adoptive Family, but 100% American.  It was because of our adoption and wanting to create a Life Book for our daughter, that I got into scrapbooking.  Besides watching Disney, Jr., jumping on the trampoline, swimming (in the summer), spending time with our daughter and scrapbooking, I love photography.  I usually will scrap whenever I get the chance and mostly at night.  But my guilty pleasure is TV.  My top two favorite shows are Doctor Who and Merlin, both made by BBC.  But I also love Elementary, Mentalist, Person of Interest, and a few others...guilty pleasure.  So glad to be here!

March 1st Sketch

Good evening!

Welcome to Autumn and the first reveal for our new Autumn / Winter Creative Team. We also have a new guest designer to introduce to you today as well.

This month, our guest designer is the gorgeous Adrienne Alvis.

Hello!  My name is Adrienne Alvis and I live in a very small town in Southern Illinois.  My husband and I have been married for seven years now and I'm lucky to be able to stay at home and take care of our three beautiful children.  I started scrapbooking over six years ago and have found my true passion through this amazing hobby!  I love sharing my creations and connecting with others through my blog that I started about a year and a half ago.  I've recently been a Studio Calico class contributor and was on the Freckled Fawn design team this past fall.  

I love using my iPhone to capture the little moments that make up our everyday lives and I'm a self-proclaimed Instagram addict (username @adriennealvis)!  I love working with sketches because it helps me streamline the design process when I'm creating a page, thus saving me lots of time.  I want to thank Sara and you all for having me!  xoxo

And now onto our sketch and reveal.
