This week we start to welcome our new design team. Each week our design team will rotate, with tonnes more inspiration to inspire you.
Please give a big Pencil Lines welcome to this weeks guest designer, Susan Dupre. Susan also supplied this weeks sketch.
Hi, I am Susan Dupre. I am so honored to be asked as a guest designer for Pencil Lines amongst such talented artists. I am a mom to a fabulous little boy who will be six in January and wife to a very "non" supportive husband. He says I spend too much money on my "hobby". Other than that, he's pretty fabulous as well. We just recently moved back to my home state of Texas. As you can see by my lo, I have to make do with "no snow" pics now. Massachusetts provided plenty, but I have some awesome pool photos now.
I started scrapping almost three years ago when my little guy was three. I used to do interior design before he was born, but until he is in school full time that is on hold. Scrapping has been such a wonderful artistic substitute. I never dreamed I would get so hooked with this form of art, but I did. You will find my style to be almost anything, well, because I love it all! Since I started scrapping, I have been so fortunate to have made a few design teams in the past and some current ones as well. I am currently on the design team for Graphic 45, Pebbles, Inc. and Nikki Sivils. I have also made so many wonderful on line friends. Scrappy people are the best!
You can see more of Susan's lovely work on her blog.

Just wanted to to say thanks again for the opportunity to be a guest designer. It has been fun seeing all the different takes on my sketch. In regards to the first post, seeing as body doubling for Jane Seymour has never taken off, I might try my hand at more sketches - if I can figure out out to do them in photoshop.
Thanks again! Susan

This challenge was such fun and managed to shift a theme I'd had in mind for a while.
