Scribble Me This

I'm so excited to share the fabulous work of designer, Jennifer Hansen, with you! Have you ever seen so many cute cards in one place!? She definitely went above and beyond the call of Guest Designer with all these wonderful projects! I'm sure you'll enjoy looking through them too and learning a little more about Jennifer:

My name is Jennifer Hansen and I live in Central Iowa. I have been married for 15 years and we have a son Parker 9 and daughter Emma 7. We round out the family with a dog, cat, turtle and 5 chickens. I spend a lot of my time running the children to various activities and also like to read, play the piano and am embarrased to say I watch way too much reality TV.

I started scrapbooking after my daughter was born and back then all of my supplies fit in a small tote. 7 years later, I have a scrap room that is overflowing and a serious addiction. My biggest crafting struggle is organization. My favorite projects to create are cards and home decor times. I have had projects featured in a variety of magazines including Creating Keepsakes, Paper Crafts, Scrapbook Trends, Cards and Paper Creations among others.

Today I'm so excited to share the work of the talented Rebecca Keppel! She created some really great projects with Scribble Scrabble's two newest paper lines. Thanks for the inspiration, Rebecca! Learn a little more about this fabulous designer and check out her work below:

In a former life I was a corporate attorney living in San Francisco. After my daughter was born, my husband and I decided to move our little family to Arizona. We are still adjusting to the extreme heat, but overall we love the family atmosphere here. In 2007 our little guy was born. They are now 5 and 3 and 1/2. I have been a stay at home mom for the last 5 years. I started scrapbooking about the same time our daughter was born. What started as a way to create a baby album for my daughter turned into much more.
Although I have been "journaling" and taking tons of pictures my whole life, it wasn't until I saw scrapbooking as whole that everything clicked for me and the obsession began! I love to scrapbook my kids because (and I know I am biased here) they are over the top photogenic and because I love remembering the little stories, anecdotes and trials and tribulations we go through as a family. I also scrap my husband and our relationship. And I can honestly say I do like to scrap myself. I find it very therapeutic! Besides recording memories and playing with fun product, I love to learn new techniques and to learn about photography. My favorite way to add texture and dimension to my projects is by sewing (either hand or machine) because I love the homemade, unique touch it adds. Besides making layouts, I love cardmaking and making gifts for family and friends too.
Thanks Cynthia for giving me the opportunity to work with Scribble Scrabble's Haley's and Simply Stylish collections! I had such fun creating with their pretty designs and versatile colors. I especially loved all the polka dots included on the flip sides of the paper and could easily use these papers on every project!

There is something so wonderfully happy about the projects Kristen made for Scribble Scrabble. I can't help but smile as I look them over! It's easy to see that Kristen enjoys paper crafting and scrapbooking---and is sooooooooo good at it too! Thanks to Kristen for sharing her talents with us!

Here's a picture of the lovely Kristen, and a little more about her:

Hi! I'm Kristen Swain, and I've really enjoyed being a guest designer for Scribble Scrabble. First off, Cynthia was beyond generous with my package of goodies, and secondly, the papers are simply beautiful!
A little about me: I have been scrapping for over 12 years! I love card making and also do altered art as well. I work for several manufacturers and have been designing professionally for almost 8 years now. My work has been published in many of the leading paper craft magazines. I enjoy creating on almost a daily basis. I also love to bake and often make homemade goodies to share with my husband's co-workers. My thanks to Cynthia and Scribble Scrabble for having me!

Scribble Scrabble is looking for a few good Guest Designers!

Starting in August 2010, we'd like to feature the projects of some scrapbook/paper craft artists who created with Scribble Scrabble products. Each month we will feature one or two Guest Designer's work on our blog and website.

Each Guest Designer will recieve a generous package of Scribble Scrabble products (especially the newest stuff) and will be asked to make at least two awesome projects with it. Then, the designer will email some great images of her projects to us. These images, including the name, photo, and bio of the designer will be published in our blog and in our website gallery. :)

Since we don't make embellishments, we understand that the featured projects won't show Scribble Scrabble products exclusively, and that's okay! We just ask that Guest Designers do their best to limit the paper on the projects to ours.

So....if you'd like to be considered (or have any questions) for a Guest Designer spot, please email me at, cynthia@scribblescrabble.net and send along a couple images of your best/favorite projects. Also, let me know what months would and wouldn't work for you to be featured. The deadline for applications is JULY 23, 2010. I'll let the designers I choose know by August 1 (or sooner).

Thanks!!
