Please give a great Pencil Line's welcome to the lovely Jo-Ann te Raa who is joining us this week as our Guest Design Team member. Jo-Ann has also provided this lovely Sketch for this week's Challenge.
Here's what Jo-Ann had to say: "Hi my name is Jo-Anne te Raa. I am a mad scrapping english girl living in a windmill in Holland. I have clogs, a bike and I love cheese...no seriously I do live in Holland in a small traditional village. I am married to Harry, a big tough Dutch marine (looks so nice in his uniform!) and our two year old son Samuel, who is a wizz with rubber stamps!
I work full time as an ops manager for a huge American sports company, whose symbol is a Swoosh..:) But I dream of making my life in my art. I am on several DT's including Scrap in Style TV and have a regular space in a Dutch scrap magazine. I LOVE teaching workshops and I can so not wait to see what you make of my sketch! Have lots of happy scrapping time....Jo xx"
You can see more of Jo-Ann's artwork at the links above or on her blog.

I found the sketch really hard, cutting up my precious photos so small, but it was a challenge, and I am amazedat all your interpretations, really wonderful, and all that material on JO's is so fab, I really must be much looser with the sketch, I stuck to it quite rigidly last night, and it hasn't quite worked for me, but I enjoyed the challenge thanks ladies.
Here's my "effort" (effort being in inverted commas!!
