Guest Designer Badge

For this challenge we have two an amazingly talented ladies...they are both also previous TOP HATS

First up is...Monika...welcome
Blue-Nika! ;-)



Hello. Online I exist as Blue-Nika, in real my name is Monika Czerkas and I love blue color, well and royal blue exactly.


I like creating small paper forms - ATC, inchies.

Scrapbooking gives me a moment of forgetfulness. I look for inspiration in words - in books and poems. I can't imagine my life in the big city, I have to be close to nature and the mountains.

Monika created this amazing page...



The background and layers are just amazing! ;-)



Isn't this just so pretty?




A fabulous page Monika! ;-)

Thanks so much for Guest Designing for us.  To see more of Blue-Nika's work, please pop over to her blog here.  You will find heaps and heaps of inspiration! ;-)

Our 2nd Guest Designer is Yasmin...a warm welcome to you! ;-)

My Photo

Hi, my name is Yasmin Tölche,

I'm a Norwegian girl born in 1980. Mom to two awesome boys, Felix and Collin. I'm happily married to Kristian and together we live in a small mountain village in Kyrksæterøra, Norway with our Rottweiler, Penny and our cat Amy. All of the above is victim of my scrapbook obsession.

I currently work for a scrapbook store in Norway doing postings online. I see myself as a fun girl with a good sense of humor and creativity. I started scrapbooking in August 2005. I came across this hobby totally by accident when i was at a friends house. I've always loved to cut and paste pictures in albums and doing some type of scrapbooking on a low level. But it was in 2005 when i really got into it. I'm what you call an all around scrapper. I do everything from cards, mini albums, altered projects and layouts. I love scrapping pages with paints, mist and getting my hands messy. I don't think i have a definite style, I do everything from vintage to inky and painted projects. Love layers.. lots and lots of layers..

I'm in the starting pit of my educator careerr.. I love educating and I'd hope to do more of that in the future.

Yasmin created this stunning page! ;-)


This page is just so cute and fun, and beautiful and pretty too! ;-)
Such a delight! ;-)

To see more of Yasmin's eye candy, please pop over here to start the sweetness!

Thanks also to Yasmin for Guest Designing for us! Really much appreciated! ;-)

Sketch Challenge no.58

Hello Everybody

In my part of the world, 01 September is the start of Spring! ;-) So to all the southern hempispherians...welcome to Spring! ;-) It certainly puts a spring in my step! ;-) LOL

So to start the month, we have a super sketch challenge. Here's the sketch.


You can create a card, tag, layout, an altered project, journal pages or even a digital project! You can create whatever you like! ;-)

Guest Designer Badge

We have some amazing Guest Designers for this challenge and our Special Guest Designer is this super crafty and talented lady, Valerie Ouellet.



Hi,
I'm Valerie Ouellet from Québec (Canada) and I've been scrapbooking for 6 years now. I'm a stay-at-home mom happy to be taking care of 3 little monsters which are often the main subject of my pages. While I'm creating, my style is quite lively and colorful and I tend to use watercolor often and medium.
I'm a designer for 2Crafty Chipboard for 2015-2016, Guest DT for Faber Castell Design memory craft for july to october 2015 and guest Dt for Cuts2luv for august 2015, a company of scrapbook flat flair sold on etsy.
I am so passionate that I own an online store that I administrate at home.

You can follow me on my blog and on pinterest: http://leblogdevall04.blogspot.ca/, https://www.pinterest.com/vall042/my-scrap/ 

Valerie created this gorgeous and stunning page!;-)




I used 2crafty and Cuts2luv flair on this page!

The styling and colouring are just fabulous! So beautiful! ;-)

Thanks so much Valerie for this stunning page! ;-)

Please pop over to Valerie's blog to see more of her beautiful work!

We have another Guest Designer for this challenge and she is a previous TOP HAT
Paivi Jankala. Paivi is a wonderfully talented, crafty gal! ;-)



Hi, my name is Päivi and I live with my family in a small town in Sweden. For a very long time, about 20-25 years, I have made my own cards for different occations but I started with scrapbooking 2009 when I made my first layout. Nowadays I mostly do layouts and cards but also sometimes other projects.
Can´t say that I have a specific stile when I create, it is quite simple but not Clean and Simple.  I love colors and using colors on my projects, often on white cardstock to realy bring out the colors.
I have designed for some Swedish stamp and paper manufactors over the years and have been guest designer for some scrapbooking stores. Currently I´m on the design team for a Swedish and a Finnish inspiration blog.
Just love Denise's sketch for this challenge. I made a page with photos on our little family taken this summer. For the background on this layout I used  watercolors, modelling paste, micro beads and a mask. Patterned papers are from the Swedish manufactor I used to design for. The clock and the square on the middle are cut out with Silhoutte.
 Finally, I would like to thank you, for being picked as Top Hat and got this opportunity  to be a guest designer here at the Scrap Africas blog.
Päivi

Paivi created this stunning page.


The background is so beautiful and textured and the colouring so amazing!

Thanks so much Paivi for this fabulous and fresh page! ;-)
