Please give a huge Pencil Line's welcome to the lovely Nisa Fiin who is joining us this week as our Guest Design Team member and who also provided this great sketch for this week's Challenge.
Here's a few words from Nisa: "Hey- I'm Nisa Fiin. I live in Minnesota (USA) with my dreamy husband Ben and our nudey pup Hooper. I started scrapbooking in 2005- after many years of collecting patterned paper. I love the combination of photos and stories and memories and mess.
I pour my scrappy heart into work for Fontwerks, Those Were the Days, My Mind's Eye, Hambly,and my beloved Dares. (Be sure to check out our soon to be released book " We Dare You" )
When I'm not scrappin' my heart out I am photographing like mad, buying more books than I could ever hope to read or laughing my brains out at Comedy Sportz. Feel free to check out my blog for further ramblings from my brain.
Thanks so much to the Pencil Line's Girls for asking me! This was a blast!!
and here is this week's gorgeous artwork:
We want to take a few minutes to thank all the Italian scrapbookers for stopping by in the tens of tens and sending us their layouts- your work is beautiful and the momement you have started about Pencil Lines is something amazing!!
