As always we have a guest designer joining us. Please help us welcome Caroline to our challenge!!


I will let Caroline introduce herself....

I was going to do an album about our trip. It is 14 years ago! So I continued to scrap all kinds of moments in our lives. I have worked as a designer for a Swedish shop and a Swedish scrapbooking Magazine. I have been teaching at scrapbooking events. I just love to create alone or with friends!"

Hi everyone! I'm Jody Spiegelhoff, the proud owner of SpiegelMom Scrap (SMS). I live in Wisconsin, USA with my busy and crazy blended family. I’ve been crafting since childhood, and began stamping and scrapbooking in 2002. Creating has always been my quiet time and firmly believe that taking a little time each day to be creative is so important and good for our souls. I started SMS officially in 2010 and have loved growing my business ever since. I totally love creating unique sequin mixes which are inspired by a variety of things around me; nature, new scrapbook collections, artwork, my daughters and more. You can find SMS on Instagram @Spiegelmom_Scraps, on Facebook, YouTube and the website www.spiegelmomscraps.com. We'd love for you to stop by and check us out! The Sparklers Design Team and I love to read your sweet comments.

CAgirl327 is our featured artist today. I love the way the patterns on the two halves are so different but pull together so nicely to provide a backdrop for the centerpiece. And the flower die cuts and doily create a swirl of color and texture around the layered photo frame.

Scrapstorian is our featured artist today. Flipping the elements and creating a sports page is such a great way to use the features of our March 1st sketch. The circles, stars, and decorative brads mimic the motion in a women's soccer game so well and pull the eye straight into the photos.
