Please welcome the lovely Carole Janson who is joining us this week as a Pencil Lines Guest Design Team member. Carole has also provided this gorgeous Sketch for this week's Challenge. Carole's work is so touchable - full of texture and very 3 Dimensional and vivid with colour. Everytime we look at her work, we find something new and inspiring. We hope you do too.
My name is Carole Janson and I live in Queensland, Australia. I am married and have two children, which most of my inspriation for scrapbooking is based on. I have been Scrapbooking for about 4 years, and I absolutely love the craft.
I wouldn't actually say I have any particular style, but I do love to 3D, and embellish.My layouts are never without texture, and I like people to get the feeling of being able to touch them. When they look at my layouts several times they generally see something different everytime. I love to experiment with new and different ideas and enjoy plenty of colour when creating my new projects.
I have been very fortunate to be involved with two manufacturer's Design Teams, Karen Foster Designs and Bo Bunny Press, and have also just joined the DT for Scrapping Angels here in Australia, which is very exciting. So I hope to keep creating and enjoying my passion of Scrapbooking and Paper craft. You can catch me at my blog: carolejansons.blogspot.com

Another stunning selection of work. Fascinated by that 3D layout and need to see more.
And I bet everyone is so glad now that I persuaded them to buy a circle cutter. :D If you don't have one - get one now!
