April Layout Guest Designer

Please join me in welcoming our April Layout Guest Designer Altina!

I have loved crafting since I was a small child.  Creativity runs pretty strong in my family.

I was introduced to the paper crafting world when I was sixteen, and I quickly fell in love.

I was truly amazed what all you could do with paper and a little ingenuity.

I am definitely a paper hoarder!! I have gobs and gobs of paper, and I LOVE Graphic 45. I probably use it more than anything! I recently moved, and it took almost five large boxes just to pack all my paper!!

My favorite way to scrapbook is from a pad of scrabook paper. I love how everything coordinates, and to me it just makes the creative process easier. I store all my scraps in ziplock bags labeled with what pad they came from.

On top of scrapbooking, I like to make cards, alter items I find at thrift stores, quilt, sew, embroider, paint, knit, and crochet.

Thanks so much to Sketch~n~Scrap for having me!!!

 Here is the wonderful layout that Altina put together based off of yesterday's sketch. The layering of all of the papers and photos is wonderful! The ripped edges really add detail to the layering. 

Thanks for sharing your work Altina!
