August Card Guest Designer

Hello, I’m Majo Wybranietz. I live in Germany with my husband and our two lovely kitten.
 
I started scrapbooking in 2008 and was addicted in a hurry. I’m an “all-rounder”, I scrap
layouts and cards, love to create tags and ATC’s and get my hands into mixed media projects.
I love trying new and different things and techniques.
 
When not crafting, I enjoy reading a thrilling book and working in our garden.
 
I'm so excited to be a part of the Sketch-N-Scrap design team for the month of August! 
 
Please come and visit me at my blog or see some of my creations at Pinterest!

This is Majo's card for the August 5th sketch and it is absolutely wonderful! I love the attention to detail, such as inking the edges of her paper. 
The little banners in the corner held with a couple of staples is too cute as well. I can't wait to see what she comes up with for the August 20th sketch!

August Layout Guest Designer

Please join me in welcoming our August Layout Guest Designer!
Hello, I’m Jennifer Reilly and I’m so excited to be a guest designer for Sketch-n-Scrap!  I’m a work at home mom to two amazing boys – Liam and Collin – who are my inspiration. They have taught me so much about patience and strength, and they remind me every day how important it is to appreciate every moment. I scrapbook the good with the bad, because it’s all part of our story, and it’s my scrap-therapy! You can see more of my creations at: www.myreillyboysandme.blogspot.com
Here is the beautiful layout she came up with based on yesterday's sketch:
The colors are wonderful, I love how she layered multiple pieces of paper! And that Preschool banner is a lot of fun!
