Please give a big Pencil Lines welcome to this weeks guest designer, Natalie Elphinstone. Natalie also provided this weeks sketch
Here is what Natalie had to say:
Hi, my name is Natalie Elphinstone. When I’m not working crazy hours at the hospital to complete my training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, or spending time with my wonderfully supportive husband and two gorgeous girls aged 4 and 1, you’ll find me tucked away in my “scrap-room” crafting up a storm!
I love nothing better than to make a creative mess - getting my hands dirty with paint and ink and cutting pretty paper up. I find it very relaxing to be able to capture the everyday moments of life in a way that will inspire my children to want to look through their albums and reminisce. My most favourite thing is when my eldest daughter sees a finished layout and gasps “that’s beautiful Mummy.”
I currently design for a lovely online Australian store Handmade by Suzanne (www.handmadebysuzanne.com.au) and a challenge blog ‘From Screen 2 Scrap’ (http://screen2scrap.blogspot.com/). You can see more of my scrappiness on my blog ‘Scrap Doctor’ (http://onescrappydoctor.blogspot.com).
Thank you for the amazing honour of being one of your guest designers.
Here are this weeks design team layouts:
Natalie
Ania
Karola
Larissa
Sasha
Tracie
Yuko

The less you stuff in it, the less you'll have to deal with if your wallet is lost or stolen.
