Welcome to our newest members!!

 Happy Sunday!!  It's the last day of the month!!  Tomorrow we launch our next sketch, however, I wanted to pop on and introduce our newest DT members!! These ladies are amazing and will hopefully be inspiring you for many months to come!!  Please join me in welcoming back to the fold Surama!!!!  Surama has been on the design team in the past and we are so happy she is able to rejoin our group!!!  Here is a little bit about Surama:

Hello, my name is Surama and I am very happy to be part of this design team again.  I live in Brazil with my sister and our kitten.  I am single and have no children.  I have been making scrapbooks for over 10 years.  Unfortunately the materials here in Brazil are very expensive but I love this art, I love the papers and I love working with sketches.  I have been running a marketing and events company for 25 years and right now my sister and I are starting a personalized stationary e-commerce site (I hope it works!).  I hope you like my work, with clean and very colorful style and I hope that somehow my pages and card inspire everyone!

We are welcoming to our team for the first time Dorlene Durham!!  Dorlene has been a long time participant here on the Sketch N Scrap blog and we are excited that she is joining our team to continue to inspire us each and every month!!!  Here is a little bit more about Dorlene:

I've been creative from a young age and have played with many different types of products and mediums over the years.  My favorite is paper products which includes scrapbooking and card making.  I'm a wife, mother and grandmother and have plenty of reasons to create.  Because I love to play with products and techniques, I don't think I have one particular style that I follow- I love them all!  I do believe that a great way to start a project is with a sketch and am super excited to be part of the Sketch-n-Scrap Design Team because of that belief.  I hope to inspire and motivate others to have fun with their projects and this wonderful hobby of ours!

Welcome ladies!!  We look forward to seeing all your amazing projects!!  Make sure and visit these creative ladies' blogs to see more of their amazing work!!  Happy creating!
