Sketch 167

We hope you are all enjoying the holidays and not too stuffed from Turkey and mince pies!

This week we have a very special guest, so please give a big Pencil Lines welcome to Donna Downey. Donna was a guest designer on 24th December 2006! and we are very happy to have Donna join us this festive season.

Donna Downey is a bestselling author, instructor and all-around creative force in the crafting industry. In 2000, she got into scrapbooking as an extension of her paper product and photography addiction. This was only the beginning. From working as a popular columnist for Simple Scrapbooks magazine, to traveling the world inspiring women to push the boundaries of their own creativity, to developing her first fabric scrapbooking line with Prima due out in the Spring of ‘09, Donna is consistently on the leading edge of all things cool related to memory preservation art.

As a craft-media artist, Donna is a born experimenter, blending and transforming both traditional and unexpected items into meaningful pieces of self expression. A former elementary school teacher, she has synthesized her first love of teaching with her passion for craft and brings this to women via workshops at scrapbook stores and events, writing books, and through her popular blog and website.

Donna lives in North Carolina with her husband, and is a mother of three exceptionally blonde children, and one blonde dog.

Donna has provided us with a 12" x 12" sketch, with numerous design possibilities. Here is Donna's original sketch book copy.

Check out Donna's blog for plenty of inspiration.

All proceeds will go directly to the MS Society, a charity close to the hearts of the Pencil Lines DT.

It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Sue Deacon. Sue has been a DT member from day 1, and a driving force behind the scenes.
We know she will be missed but a little birdie tells me she will be popping back from time to time.

Thank you to everyone who entered the 2010 DT search. If only I could choose everyone! Myself and the team are busy shortlisting, to make our final decision. Check back tuesday for an announcement of our 2010 design team.

Finally, myself and everyone at Pencil Lines would like to wish you all a Happy New Year. We look forward to inspiring you in 2010, with more sketches, including digital, cards and much more!

Happy Scrapping

Anna and the Pencil Lines Team xx

Here's my attempt - I'm still finding my feet with digi-scrapping, but I'm pretty pleased with the results!

Thanks for the sketch - I'm looking forward to taking part in more challenges in 2010 :)
