January 5, 2016 – The Crafty Maven Getaway

Our contributor for Sunday January 3, 2016 is Marianne. Marianne has a lovely scrappy style and has been scrap booking for seventeen years. She got her start when she saw a scrap booking kit on QVC; she ordered the kit and has been crazy for this craft since then.

Marianne has had an obsession for scrappy supplies over the years (as we all have 🙂 . Her stash grew when her friend opened a scrap booking store and she was able to purchase supplies at wholesale prices…every scrap booker’s dream! Marianne also taught classes at this same store. Marianne continues to love to purchase new products as inspiration for new layouts.

Stay tuned through the video; Marianne has included an awesome layout share section on the video. Her layouts are gorgeous!!

Here is the link to Marianne’s own YouTube channel, as well as the link to her Spotlight video and a sample layout from a project Marianne did for The Crafty Maven Getaway YouTube channel in December.

Hello!

Today we have another pocket style layout for you; this time from Kelly aka Froggie251:

“This is week 46 of my 2015 album. For this layout I used the colors, squirrels, and the patterns on the blankets from the inspiration piece. I decided to do some mixed media as I haven’t gotten my stuff out for quite some time. Other elements that I used were stickers and die-cuts from Teresa Collins, an older chipboard sticker sheet from Leeza Gibbons. and another sticker sheet that I have had in my stash for F-O-R-E-V-E-R. The cards were from all over the place and the stencils that I used were from Scraptastic and Crafters Workshop.”
