It’s such a treat to have Wilna Furstenburg join us for December’s Monterey Bay kits! She’s been so amazing to work with, her layouts were gorgeous, and she even offered to make a video of her process. I got to watch it earlier this week and...
Nov 20, 2014 | Challenge Winner, Sketch
I loved seeing the different takes on the sketch this month. Thank you to those of you who played along. Each layout had so much to love. Terry’s was clean and simple, with a photo that spoke to my heart. Wendy had fun with the circle elements and used a lot of...

Do you love a good sketch like I do? I used to not like them, but then realized how flexible they really were. You can enlarge, flip, take one thing, shrink, add too, etc. any sketch and use it as a jumping off point. What a great tool to have! The November Sketch...

Sep 2, 2014 | Daisy Designers, Sketch
I love a sketch that gives me a finished layout in less than an hour. So much love. That would be the case for this month’s sketch, based on Anna’s layout from the modern+vintage collection. It was so easy to pull elements from her design and make this...

Funny story how Abi Beach became our Guest Designer for the August modern + vintage kit: Sharmaine had posted a thread to the DT about this very sweet designer she’d seen on Shimelle’s site. She shared a link and quite of a few of us went to see what Abi...
