Aloha Crafty Mavens!! I hope everyone has a great day planned today!! Have an awesome Easter!! It’s always been one of my favorite holidays, and I love the welcoming of the warmer spring like weather. I can’t wait to see how everyone has spent their day!!

Today on The Crafty Maven Getaway we have two videos!

Froggie 251 is sharing her planner spread. I love Kelly’s spreads. They are always so much fun!! I love that she adds so many stamps in her planner spread!

“For this week I used the Lawn Fawn stamp set Critters at the Dog Park for the decorative part of the planner. I colored the images in with Copics and Sharpie markers. For the “events” I used stamps from the Sweet Stamp Shop and Studio Calico. I choose the Critters stamp set becuase it reminded me of summer. I really like decorating my planner because it get me to use my washi tape and I do LOVE washi tape. The planner pages are from Webster’s Pages – Color Crush.” Froggie 251

Here is a look at her planner spread.

Take a look at Kelly’s process video.

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.

Spotlight Sunday: Nicole Mackin

Nicole Mackin is up on the Crafty Maven Getaway for the Sunday, December 27 Spotlight video. Nicole is a delightful member of the Crafty Maven team and in her video she describes her scrappy style, history and craft space.

Nicole and her husband and two daughters live in the country in the state of Nebraska; they are big Corn Husker fans (their college team). Nicole grew up in Nebraska and loves her home state. Her genuine and sweet demeanor are clearly evident as she shares about her family and her home.

Nicole started to journal and capture memories as a young girl. She and her mom loved to scrap together and Nicole cherishes all of those memories and little details she has documented over the years. Sadly, Nicole and her husband both lost their parents within a very short period of time and so the memories captured became even more special and cherished.

Nicole loves to try lots of different scrappy styles; she loves to layer, try vintage looks, and create some sparkle in her layouts. She loves to scrap lift from magazines or from YouTube videos and she contributed to an episode of The Scrap Gals Podcast on this topic.

Nicole finishes up her video by taking us on a tour of her amazing scrap space. Wow, it’s awesome!! Thanks for sharing that Nicole! One of the things on my to-do list in the new year is to make my craft room more organized, so I loved the craft room share.

Below is the link to the Spotlight video and to Nicole’s YouTube channel and some examples of her projects on the Crafty Maven channel.
