What great inspiration!!! We can't wait to see what you do with the sketch! Join us for your chance to win one entry into the random drawing for this month's awesome prize.  Our sponsor this month is Skyline Paperie, a wonderful shop owned by our very talented design team member Stephanie Ho! 

Here is a little bit about Stephanie:

I am a quintessential city girl. I love the hustle and bustle of life among the skyscrapers. I don’t mind our tiny apartment because I believe love grows best in small places. I love the fact that no matter where I am, I'm never more than 5 minutes from a coffee shop. City life inspires me and has played a huge role in my shaping my creative philosophy. I'm living proof that you don't need a spacious studio to create meaningful works of art.  In addition to being an avid scrapbooker, card maker and crafter, I am also a wannabe chef, a book hoarder, an aspiring world traveler, a nail polish collector, a latte drinker and a cupcake connoisseur. I'm constantly singing and I'm confident I could easily bring home the million dollar prize on Don't Forget the Lyrics. I have a deep faith in God and am continually amazed at His unfailing love and abounding grace. I believe everyone has a story worth telling and I’m excited to help you share yours! So go ahead and grab your photos, a pen, a glue stick and a handful of glitter and let’s get busy!

Layout by DT member Stephanie Ho:

January Card Guest Designer

Please welcome with me the first Card Guest Designer of 2014, Wendi Robinson!

I'm wifey to my hot hubby, Jeremy for over 14 years, and mom to wonderful, 3 cute kids who keep me super busy (all 3 kids are named after cities in different countries). We live in sunny So Cali, and I am a beach lover!!! Scrapbooking has become my creative outlet which I LOVE to do in my spare time. I enjoy making layouts, cards, creating home decor items for our house, and altering!!! I LOVE it all. I LOVE my ipod and itunes, I'm a HUGE Depeche Mode fan, love to walk & do zumba, relax at the beach, and hang out in the backyard with my kids. You can find my work on my blog: http://scrappydayinparadise.blogspot.com/.
I am very grateful for Sketch-N-Scrapfor having me as a GDT for this month.

And check out the beautiful job Wendi did on her card. I love the stitching detail along with the rough edges of the paper. Not to mention the brads give such a great touch!

I'm looking forward to what Wendi does with our next sketch!
