Our 1st November Guest Designer ..

Our DT member Stina Westbom is chairman of the Northern Light Scrappers in Sweden and on the first weekend in October they held a scrapbook convention/retreat for over a hundred scrapping ladies.  One of the challenges set over the weekend was sponsored by ARTastic with some Kaisercraft prizes and those who came first, second and third were offered guest design spots with us in November.  

Let me introduce you to Paivi - the first place winner with her take on our November inspiration.

Hi, my name is Päivi and I live with my family in a small town in Sweden. For a very long time, about 20-25 years, I have made my own cards for different occasions but I started with scrapbooking 2009 when I made my first layout. Nowadays I mostly do layouts and cards but also sometimes other projects. Don´t have a name for my scrapbooking style but I guess it is something like "Clean and simple meets mixed media".  I love colors and using colors on my projects, often on white cardstock to really bring out the colors.
