Hello, my name is Olga, I am 34 years old. I live now in a small town in Belorus, but i was born in Russia, far east. I have a lovely husband and 2 children: 7 and 4 years old.
I found out about the scrapping in 2006, when I was on maternity leave, but started scrapping only 4 years later, in 2010! My first works were cards. .My first layout I made quite recently, in the February and now I just love to work with photos. I don't have any particualar style, everything depends on the materials, photo and the idea. I love work with sketches they help a lot. I also love to play with paint, sometimes the result is unpredictable, yet very interesting.
I am dreaming to frame all my layouts and to hang them on the walls of our house that we are busy building now!
Thank you very much for having me as a Guest Designer!
And here is our awesome sketch:
And now on to our talented design team:

This sketch worked beautifully for a double page layout...
I love the clean lines and the simplicity of this sketch.
i also stretched the sketch to create a double page. loved how it turned out!
LOL...I even experimented with some ink splatters.
