Sketch #167

Good Morning Creative Scrappers!
We have SKETCH 167 for you today! Enjoy the reveal and perhaps a few hours of scrappy time this week !!


Thanks so much for having me at Creative Scrappers today! I am very excited to be part of this fantastic and creative blog :)

My name is Janna Werner, I am a paper craft and mixed media addict from Germany :)
I started crafting in April 2010, cardmaking had been my favourite subject at that time but soon scrapbooking captured my heart. So did mixed media in 2011 when I got to know some very inspiring mixed media artists and was totally amazed by their work. I like to experiment with different styles and materials. If you would like to see more of my work I would be delighted to welcome you at my blog.

Have a great day,

Janna

This Layout is about my favourite beverage: almond milk. The Journaling on this page is the recipe: 100g almonds, 1 big spoon of honey and 600ml water. Blend it and it´s done :) -Janna

Tamara Wade

My name is Tamara Wade or aka Stepfordwife!

I’ve been scrapping for about 8 ½ years now, and during that time have been on 3 different design teams as well as a part owner in an online scrapping store which I owned for just over 12 months.

I traditionally scrap 12 x 12 but also like to mix it up with cards and off the page items too..I wouldn’t say that I particularly have a style but do like to add lots of things to my layouts to give it texture.

Every layout I create has been distressed in some form and I also have a slight addiction to inking! I also send to shrink sketches down and create with a lot of white space.

Shannon Morgan


I am a Northern girl living in the South...that takes some getting used to, but I'm not going to complain about being able wear flip flops in March! I am a stay at home mom and I am very thankful to be. I have two crazy, yet loveable kiddos - Patrick and Mackenzie, they are such a big inspiration, they make me laugh on a daily basis, and help me grow too....and two dogs Cinna and Meg (Rescued Rhodesian Ridgebacks)....one of which who thinks she's a little person trapped in a dog body....they all keep the house colorful, loud and busy....it gives me ample opportunity to scrap everyday things more-so than occasions and events.

I have a wonderful husband who loves me despite my whining, quirks and dorky obsession with watching King of the Hill, chips and salsa, baking and battling my caffeine addiction to Coke products! If I'm not scrapbooking, you can find me reading, listening to music and being a total nerdy fan-girl, baking, volunteering at my kiddo's school or walking to support my love of baking!!! :)

Sarah Webb

Hello! My name is Sarah Webb and I am happily married with two busy, but fun kids. I work full time in health care. We live in Southwestern Ontario, Canada. After the kids are in bed, I hit the scrap table.

I started scrapbooking just over 5 years ago with the birth of our daughter and it has since developed into my favourite hobby. I love white space, pops of bright colour and tend towards multi photo layouts. I would describe my style as clean and simple with some artsy touches.

I enjoy using sketches, for both the design and the inspiration. I am thrilled to be back with the team at Creative Scrappers! I am looking forward to seeing all the takes, visiting new blogs and being inspired. Cheers!

Sarah Augustesen

Hi! My name is Sarah Augustesen. I live in Denmark with my soon to be husband Jacob and his dog. (I'm really not a dog-person). I work full time at the emergency department as a doctor. I love my job, but I also really love my time off, where I can be creative and enjoy my passion for photos and paper.

I made my first Layout in september 2008 and I have been addicted ever since. I do scrapbooking because it makes me happy. It's something I do primarily for myself and therefore scrapbooking for me is much about the creative process and the (me)time and peace it gives me.

I usually scrap in bright earth colors and love clusters, sticker alphabets, white space and lots of small details. I'm also a cardmaker and I'm on the Design team for the swedish stamp compagny Magnolia.

I'm so happy for the opportunity to create for Creative Scrappers.

Nicole Nowosad


Hi! I am Nicole Nowosad and I am super honoured to be back with Creative Scrappers for another term as a layout designer!

I live in warm Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada, with my three kids and supportive husband. I have been scrapbooking since before we were married and haven’t stopped since! I scrap the everyday photos of my families life, and there probably isn’t a page of mine that doesn’t have stitching on it!

I love turquoise, cupcakes, polka dots and lazy summer days. I have been inspired by all the sketches on this site, and hope that you will be too!

Natasha Naranjo Aguirre


Hi! My name is Natasha and I'm the mother of two wonderful children and the wife of an amazing and supportive man. I am a floral designer by day and a scrapaholic by night!

I first discovered my love for scrapbooking in 2004 but was unable to scrap because I was a single mother and had no spare time for myself or for hobbies. For years I was unable to scrapbook, but my passion for it never faded. I got married in 2010 and my husband inspired and encouraged me to start creating again. If it weren't for him, I would have never been able to begin doing what I love.

As for my scrapping style... well, I don't know what my style is exactly LOL. I just create using products I love. I love to incorporate different techniques on my layouts and use a variety of different elements.

Every day I am inspired by the amazing work and talent of others, and I hope to be able to inspire others with my work as well. I am very excited to be able to share my work with you all!

Happy scrapping!

Natasha
