Sketch #40

It is my pleasure (Stefanie’s)  to introduce the guest designer this month.

Hello, my name is Lynette Jacobs. I live in Port Elizabeth on the east coast of South Africa.  I have been married to Kobus for the past 30 years and we have three grown children.  We have also been blessed with four beautiful grandchildren…who are also the subject of most of my scrapping.

My husband and I founded a non-profit organization that provides for the needs of nearly 500 homeless and poor people whom we house at the Mission.  This work is very stressful and emotional and scrapbooking provides me with much needed stress-relief.  I started scrapbooking three years ago and was instantly hooked.  I love that my hobby can give me so much pleasure and at the same time create a legacy for my children and grandchildren.

I seldom do any off the page projects and prefer pages that can be slipped into my albums.  I am on no Design Teams and am honored to be guest designing here on your sketch site.

Here is Lynette’s take on this week’s sketch # 40.

And for another winner we have this…

And for adding to their blog telling everyone about Little Shop turning 1.

And I hate to do this but as it’s been 2 weeks since people added to their blogs, the links aren’t showing in my dashboard anymore so if you added to your blog telling others about Little Shop turning 1 can you email me the link on your blog and I will add those names to a draw and get one of my boys to draw out a name. I will give everyone till next Wednesday to do so and the I will anounce the winner for this then.

Sketch #38

Welcome to sketch #38,

We have another awesome Guest designer for you all this fortnight.  Her name is

Ewonne

 

 Hi everybody! My name is Ewonne Ek and I come from Sweden. I live in a relatively small town, Katrineholm,
about an hour from the capital Stockholm. I live here with my two teenagers, Jessica 16 and Filip 14, and the cat
Oliver. Janne, my fiance lives here as well when he’s not working! I work fulltime in an office at an electrical firm, and
scrapbooking is my way of relaxing on my free time!
I discovered scrapbooking in Oct 2006 and ever since, there’s been no turning back for me! I’m just hooked on this!
Right now I’m in to the vintage/shabby/romantic look, but I’m no stranger to trying other styles as well, and I alternate
between doing layouts, cards and alter things!
I’m not on any Design team at the moment, but passed DT spots has been st My scrapbook Nook and 2 Sketches 4 You!
And I’ve been Guest designing for the Swedish Manufacturer Inkido and some Swedish shops!

A Big Thank you to Tanya and Monique for giving me the opportunity to Guest design here at Little Shop of Sketches ♥

Little Shop turns 1

Little Shop of Sketches turns 1 today and I turn ?  LOL!!! I started Little Shop of Sketches a year ago on my birthday.  I have an awesome design team that help with the fortnightly sketches and without them we couldn’t bring you all the inspiration with their layouts.

Thanks to Vicki, Helen, Jessica, Monique, Stefanie and Mieke for you time so far on Little Shop. You guys ROCK!!!!!

 

So with our birthday in mind I am having a little competition here.  Create a layout around anyone of my sketches that is in the gallery and upload to the folder before 4th June and you could win this….

 

 

This is the new Garden Grove range from Scenic Route

you will get 10 sheets, 2 die cut sheets, 1 sheet of stickers and 1 pack chipboard shapes.

I will be picking the best layout from one of my sketches. What I’m looking for in your layout is the use of colours, style and how much of one of my sketches is in your layout.

Sponsor – Stampin’ Scrap

 

And as a little extra if you add this to your own blog telling everyone about Little shop turning 1 with a link back to here you could win this….

 

This is the range from LYB – Zinnia range

Sketch #36

We have a very exciting surprise for you this week – an awesome GUEST DESIGNER!!!

Little Shop of Sketches is proud to announce Laura Vegas!

Laura has kindly agreed to create a layout for sketch #36 and she has an awesome surprise for us coming in two weeks!!!

Here is a little bit more about Laura:

Hey everyone! My name is Laura Vegas. I live in sunny California with my husband of almost 10 years, Joe. And we have 2 gorgeous girls, Alyssa (12 years old) and Sarah (9 years old). Both are very busy girls with lots of activities going on, including their 6th year of soccer which is in full swing right now. I work full-time in my home as a Daycare Provider. The ages I care for range from newborns all the way up to 8 years old. One of the extra perks of my job, is that I have lots of different faces around to photograph and scrap! My girls and the daycare kiddos are the main focus of my scrapbook albums, but every once in a while I manage to work in a layout or two about myself. I have been scrapping for almost 13 years now, and in the past 2 years I have also been really focusing on improving my photography skills. My scrapbook style is very clean and linear, tons of fun and bright colors, and lots of details and embellishments. You’ll usually find 3-4 photos on my layouts, but I also love to use just one photo when it’s one I really love. My work has been published in various magazines and idea books such as PaperKuts, Creating Keepsakes, PaperCrafts, Scrapbooks Etc, Scrapbook Trends, Paper Trends, and Cards. I was chosen to be a part of the 2006 PaperKuts Power Team, have been on the Lil Davis Design Team, and am currently a member of the Making Memories Design Team and the Jillibean Soup Design Team.

And be sure to head on over to her blog and check out her inspiring work!

And now for the much anticipated
