Winner of the February Challenge

Hello everyone, here we are with a message from Melinda and her choice of winner for the February layout challenge. Melinda says she found it difficult to choose between the lovely entries:

"I chose 'K's entry because I loved the way she took the whole feminine style of the sketch and flipped it on its head by creating a grungy layout for boys. Thanks so much for using my design and I really did enjoy everyone's take on the sketch. Such fun!"

Congratulations to K

Please contact us to claim your prize.

Thank you to all of you who took part in the challenge.

S is for Squares

For the month of February we have Australian Melinda Spinks on board, with this beautiful layout for you to scraplift.

Melinda says:
I live happily on a farm in North East Victoria, AUSTRALIA with my wonderful husband (The Farmer) and 3 precious children (The Farm Kids), plus 1 dog, 3 cats, 3 horses, 1 platypus and a rather nasty cockatoo. I spend allot of time in the kitchen (my space) cooking up a storm, watching the kids run wild and free outside. I enjoy the simple life, picnics in the paddock, my garden, dinner on the veranda overlooking the creek, a nice bottle of wine, my family and now... scrapbooking. It has become a wonderful added addition into my life and so I decided to start this blog to keep a record of where I begun and the progression along the way. Hope you enjoy the journey with me!

This month Anita has chosen this stunning layout by American scrapbooker Laura Vegas

Laura says:

"Hi there! I'm Laura Vegas, from Northern California, where I live with my husband Joe, and my two gorgeous daughters, Alyssa (18) and Sarah (15). I have been scrapbooking for over 20 years now. I started shortly before my first daughter was born, and have not slowed down since. I scrapbook mostly about my girls and our family, but like to mix it up now and then by scrapping photos and stories about my daycare kids and family friends as well. I have been fortunate enough to design for some amazing manufacturers in the industry over the last 9 years, and have also had my work published in a variety of publications for the last 10 years. I was also a proud member of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Creating Keepsakes Dream Team. I am currently serving as the Design Team Coordinator for Bella Blvd, designing for Kerri Bradford Studio, and am a member of the 2013 & 2014 Scrapbook & Cards Today design team."
