February's Guest Designer

First, a HUMONGOUS thank you to Chris P for her work as Guest Designer in January.  Chris was an enormous help for us last month, in more ways than one.  She kept us all updated on the new lines being released at CHA, inspired us with her challenges for the crop event, and posted several sketches to help get our new year off to a scrappy great start!  So, from all of us at Scrapbook Heaven, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  You are AWESOME!

And now for our February GDT: Marcia Lippert (Marcia). If you've been on our boards, then you know Marcia!  She's been on the forum since August, 2009, and "prolific scrapper" is an understatement for her!  She completes every project (sometimes twice or more over) for every one of our events, takes on every monthly challenge, and never ceases to amaze us with her speedy scrapping skillz!

Here's a bit about Marcia from Marcia herself:

I live in Iowa with my sweet, supportive husband, John and my dog, Jesse. We have 2 grown children who are both married and also live in the same town that we do. :)

I've worked as a school nurse for the past 15 years and love all ages of children and teens.
I started scrapbooking a very long time ago. I had never considered myself an artist of any king until I started scrapbooking. The first crop that I went to was with my sister, who was in town for the weekend, so I blame this entire addiction on her!
 

My style used to be clean line, but it may be changing! I like to distress and lately have been reading and playing around with some Tim Holtz products.

From the Gallery 2.1.11

If you haven't stopped by the gallery in a while, grab a hot cuppa whatever you like and browse through all the inspiration that's flowing out of there.  I think a lot of members made resolutions to scrapbook more in the New Year because the gallery is flooding over! 

I just loved this page by our digi scrapbooker, Jennifer (littlekiwi):


Congrats, Jennifer!  Thanks for sharing your inspiring creations with us!

It's Reveal Time!

Happy February!!  The DT have been hard at play creating with the February Kits.  These kits are overflowing with product from Bella Blvd., Autumn Leaves, Fancy Pants, Teresa Collins, and so much more!  You will be head-over-heels in love with them!
