March is here!!! We've got a new kit and new Guest Designer!

MARCH KIT
Wow March is already here! We got a fabulous kit this month to get ready for spring! This month we are so excited to be featuring a paperline from PaperTrunk!! For those of you that don't know, Carrie (owner of PaperTrunk) has been on the PersonalScrapper design team for a few years! We are so excited to use her new papers that debuted at CHA! They are bright, fun and have a a great texture!

MARCH GUEST DESIGNER!
We are so exciting to have Mel (Mc3Mom on our message board) Guest Designing for us this month! She has always done a great job and has been so fun to get to know.
Here is a little bio from her:

Hello!! I'm so excited to be Guest Designer for Personal Scrapper this month! Just over two years ago, I met the PS gals at CKC in Bellevue and signed up for Personal Scrapper. It's been fun to get the kits each month and be a part of the message board community. My family lives in Washington, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. We love the beauty of our area! My husband and I have four children--ages 8, 6, 4, and 2. I am a SAHM and really enjoy it. I also teach piano lessons to 10 students. Some of my hobbies (other than scrapping) include baking, volleyball, reading to my kids, and talking on the phone.

Scrapbooking (in it's current form) began for me when our first child was born. While growing up, I scrapbooked--saving ticket stubs, programs, candy wrappers, etc. And, I've always been a journal keeper. I enjoy telling the stories of our photos and it brings me great joy when the kids want to look at their scrapbooks. They know more about their childhoods than I can remember! I'm so glad to have documented their early years when they were fresh in my mind! My scrapping style is very simple and linear. I love to use sketches or PageMaps to make LO's.

Thank goodness for all the wonderful designers out there :) Thanks again to Erica and her design team. They make Personal Scrapper a wonderful kit club!!
