Week 76 ~ Sandi Says......

Guest Designer

Get to know Sandi....


Hi! My name is Sandi. I live in Massachusetts with my hubby, who is incredibly supportive of my scrapping obsession! We have three children and a dog and a cat, all of which I love to scrap.
I started scrapping about seven years ago, and have been addicted ever since! My scrapping style is colorful, artsy, simple, sometimes a deliberate messy, but over-all clean with crisp lines!

Get to know Jill.......


Hi! My name is Jill Sarginson and I live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada with my husband of 15 years and our daughter, Abigail. I have been scrapbooking for about 4 years now and it's developed into a major passion! I love to record the moments of our everyday lives. I mostly create layouts (both single and double pages) however I also love to make cards and do the odd altered proect. My style is hard to define - however I do have some elements that I tend to gravitate towards on almost all of my projects: distressing stitching and inking. Oh, and I love using circles.

I am a person on the go! When I'm not scrapbooking, you can find me at the gym, playing soccer or maybe training for triathlons. I also enjoy spending time with my family, the cottage life and reading.

I am very excited to be a guest designer for City Crafter Challenge Blog!
