AND thank you to SpiegelMom Scraps, who is sponsoring this challenge with three of the newly revealed sequin mixes for the month for a second lucky participant!

Hi everyone! I'm Jody Spiegelhoff, the proud owner of SpiegelMom Scrap (SMS). I live in Wisconsin, USA with my busy and crazy blended family. I’ve been crafting since childhood, and began stamping and scrapbooking in 2002. Creating has always been my quiet time and firmly believe that taking a little time each day to be creative is so important and good for our souls. I started SMS officially in 2010 and have loved growing my business ever since. I totally love creating unique sequin mixes which are inspired by a variety of things around me; nature, new scrapbook collections, artwork, my daughters and more. You can find SMS on Instagram @Spiegelmom_Scraps, on Facebook, YouTube and the website www.spiegelmomscraps.com. We'd love for you to stop by and check us out! The Sparklers Design Team and I love to read your sweet comments.

We would also like to thank Paper Issues for being our third sponsor for this challenge and offering a $20.00 gift certificate to their online shop. Be sure to watch for our post next week as we will be featuring gorgeous creations by some of the Paper Issues DT using his sketch!

AND thank you to our NEW sponsor Corbett Creations Wood Veneers, who is sponsoring this challenge by offering a beautiful love-filled prize pack for our third winner!

Hi I am Jodi, Owner/Designer at Corbett Creations Wood Veneers. My laser cutting business is currently based in Canberra and has been something I have been working on for a little while now. It came about because I would be constantly frustrated that I couldn't find the perfect title or embellishment to finish off layouts, projects or gifts. I would then spend far too long trying to create the perfect embellishment and would sometimes rope my husband in to help me with all this cool tools in the man shed! He has a love for wood also and together we purchased our laser. I love being able to design and cut the perfect piece for someone to finish telling their story - the perfect title, the hard to find themed embellishment, a custom piece for the home or a meaningful gift, really makes me feel so happy because I know that their search is over and they have the perfect piece that they desired. I love to create in wood, chipboard, cardstock, paper and acrylic with so many different mediums I can create so many embellishments and titles - the possibilities are endless. Good luck and I look forward to seeing everyone's entries!
