Get to know Diane.....

Hello,  My name is Diane Hover and I live in the southwest part of Michigan...I am married to my hubby Greg and we have 5 children between us, all grown up and out of the nest! I have been papercrafting as long as I can remember, and always say, I think when I was born and the Dr. put ink on the bottom of my foot, I was destined from that day on to "get inky". I also sew and am a major flower gardener....I hope my projects inspire you today to get creative.  I want to thank the girls at City Crafter for honoring me with this guest designer spot...thank you!!

Get to know Lynnda......

My name is Lynnda Hosni; although, my time is very limited, working mum and 2 boys! I am passionate about all crafty stuffs. I live in Melbourne, Australia. I am blissfully married to my supportive soul mate Fairuz and I have one cheeky 7 years old little boy, Matin.

Ever since I started this hobby, it has never been wronged! To me this craft hobby is the perfect combination of art, photography, beautiful papers and also a complete freedom to express myself! I did not realize that I do have this artsy hidden talent. Personally I think I have lots to learn and I love to incorporate new things on my layouts/cards or any other form of Arts. I don't think I have a fixed style, usually it evolved in time to time but one thing I am sure, I love colors! And lately, I love to include on recycled or upcycled items and tags on my project as well.

Thank you so much Kirsty and the girls over @ City Crafters for having me as the Guest Designer for week 136... I hope you girls will enjoy my cute little card.. hugs....xoxo

Get to know Rebekah.....

Hi! My name is Rebekah, but everyone calls me Becks. I currently live in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada with my Mountie man and our two pets-Tahoe (a German Sheppard Husky pup) and Keiko (A Siamese kitty) I'm originally from Bermuda, so dealing with the cold of the North is a far cry from the warm sunny beaches and turquoise seas of my homeland.

I ventured into paper crafting about 3 years ago and have been hooked ever since. It all began by making cards for friends and family's birthdays and special occasions. I started my blog in April of 2009 and the rest is history. I've had such fun meeting bloggers from all over the world. I love entering challenge sites and stumbled across CCCB in May 2010. I was thrilled to be a spotlight artist in week 5 and have popped into the challenges ever since. I'm so excite to be this week's guest designer! Thanks to Kirsty and the DT for having me here this week :)

Get to know Lynette........

Hi All! My name is Lynette Jacobs, and I am so honored to be guest this week here on the City Crafter Challenge Blog! I currently live in the coastal city of Port Elizabeth on the east coast of South Africa. I have been married for 33 years and have three grown children and four grandchildren (with two more on the way) I love my family and they are the inspiration for most of my scrappy work. I have been scrapping since 2005 and only recently tried my hand at cards making. I must be honest and admit that I am hooked to all things scrappy.
