November Card Guest Designer

Today I have for you our November Card Guest Designer Jean.

 HI, my name is Jean and I am so excited to be Guest Designing here at SketchNScrap. I live in Michigan and am mom to two adult children! One was married in September and the other will be married next June. I continue to scrap their lives as much as possible. Over the past few years I have also started making more cards – thank you cards especially. I often never know where to start and that is why sketches are so important. These allow me to head to my stash, grab some paper and get to work.  Thank you so much for allowing me this opportunity to work with these sketches!

Jean's card is absolutely beautiful, I especially love the added hearts and the inking. Thanks for inspiring us with a wonderful card Jean!

November Layout Guest Designer

Meet our November Guest Designer Leah Burgett:

Hello everyone! My name is Leah and I live in a small town east of Birmingham, Alabama.  I am excited to be November’s Guest Designer for Sketch-N-Scrap.  I am married to the sweetest man who spoils me rotten with lots of scrapbooking supplies!  We have an eight year old son who is the subject of 99% of my layouts! 
    I started scrapbooking after my mom gave me a kit one year for Christmas.  That was seven years ago and I am totally addicted! Scrapbooking lets me be creative in my own way!
    Sketch-N-Scrap’s November sketch was perfect for the pictures I took on a surprise weekend trip that my lovely husband surprised us with last month.  As you can tell from the pictures we went to the beach and the Okaloosa Pier is a favorite spot of ours to visit.  I kept my layout very close to the sketch.  The only thing I did different was I turned one of the pictures.  If you would like to see close ups of this layout or any other layouts please visit my blog: www.leahbslayouts.blogspot.com.  Thanks again SNS for another great challenge!

Leah put together a wonderful layout for us. The papers work so well with the photos. Love that "boardwalk" paper! Thanks Leah!
