Week 209 ~ Speech Bubbles


Guest Designer

Please meet.....



Hi, I'm Lisette and I live in Sheffield, England. I am absolutely thrilled to have another opportunity to be a Guest Designer here at City Crafter Challenge Blog. I am a huge fan of the site and am continually inspired both by the Design Team samples and all the entries – the standard is unbelievably high. In a few months I will celebrate by 2nd blogging year and can’t believe just how quickly that time has gone and how much fun I’ve had. I feel blessed to be part of the wonderful crafting community.  My ambition is to work full-time in the crafting world in some way. In my day job I work for a charity that trains people to set up healthy cooking clubs and to get people cooking good food from scratch. I was previously a primary school teacher and also had a long spell working for the BBC. I've been married for over thirty years and have two grown-up (well sometimes!) sons. All three men in my house are very good at putting up with my crafting mess! 



That is so sweet Lisette!!!
Please stop by Lisette's blog for more of her lovely work!

My name is Natalia. I'm 20-year-old girl from Poland. In the Internet I appear under a nickname Nats and you can meet me in my little creative space under this address: http://simplevariations.blogspot.com. I'm a second-year student of English philology, translation course. I've been a great lover of art from my early childhood, but I discovered scrapbooking about 2 years ago eventually taking my first steps in this area 1.5 year ago.

I love it because I can discover and learn new things every time during the process of creating. 

I fell in love with the theme "Paint It", because I've been doing experiments with mixed media techniques for several weeks and it fascinates me a lot. So I took my watercolors and splashed the background of a tag a little bit. I also coloured the biggest flower, which I made out of white paper. The colours from the photo were great inspiration for me, so I used silver, grey, brown and white. 

I hope that you will have as much fun with that challenge as I had! ;)





Hop over to Natalia's blog for more of the beauties she created

Hi friends! It's my week as hostess. One of the things I'd love to do is go up in a hot air balloon! It's on my bucket list, and it's something my daughter wants to do also after she has her baby, so I'm thinking soon! So this week that is my challenge to you! I can't wait to see what you create!!

Theme: Up, Up and away! 
(make a card or project using hot air balloon, or regular balloon if you don't have hot air balloon)
