A dedication to our Mama Hen

Mamahen (Melissa) has been a designer for PersonalScrapper.com for over 2 years! I am proud to say that Melissa was one of my very first members almost 5 years ago! So we have been scrapping together for years!!! Melissa has a very unique and cool quality to her layouts! I always enjoy all of the different techniques and topics that she scraps.

Her husband is going to school and pursuing his dream of opening his own business. She is being pulled in a lot of directions and had to resign from PersonalScrapper.com. We will miss Melissa on our team! I have loved getting to know her better through our message board, shows (especially Seattle!) and kit nights! She will still be online so she isn't going anywhere.

I am fortunate to have Melissa as a friend! Since we have been friends we have gone from 1 son to 5 sons between the 2 of us! She has a very kind heart and i wish we lived closer so we could hang out and let our little boys play!

Here are a few of her layouts from the past few months:

Please leave a message for Melissa to see!

Its hard to believe October is already here! I really hope to start blogging on a regular basis. We are having Croptoberfest at PersonalScrapper so come on over to our forums and check it out!

This month we are using Crate Paper. They have done it again! Another stunning collection of papers. Not only did I find this LemonGrass collection perfect for our October kit but I also loved their Prudence line (and made it an add-on!)

Here are a few layouts I did using the kit. My absolutely favorite embellishment this month was the Crate Paper Glitter Border strips!!
