AND thank you to SpiegelMom Scraps, who are also sponsoring this challenge, offering three of the newly revealed sequin mixes for the month, to 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, to a third lucky participant! 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!

As always we have a guest designer joining us. Please help us welcome Judy to our challenge!!

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

"Hi from sunny north Queensland. I am so honoured to be asked to be guest on the design team this month. Working with paint, inks and paper is so much fun and I really enjoy using mixed media on my layouts. I enjoy the creative outlet that scrapbooking provides but also like recording the little things that make up the fabric of my life. Hopefully my children and grandchildren will also appreciate my record keeping in years to come."

Here is  Judy's layout based on our sketch, we adore the layers and texture that she has created!.

Thank you for joining us Judy!
