So today's post is a little bit of a different one. I came across a posting on The Paper Players blog last week that intrigued me; they are looking for 2 new guest designers for their blog for the months of March-May. Now I absolutely love their challenges and the DT always come up with amazing samples for inspiration. I really enjoy jump starting my creativity with a sketch, colour challenge or theme in mind, so I decided I am just going to put myself out there and apply (believe it or not this really is a hard thing for me to do).
My name is Jenn Picard and I have been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator for a little over 4 years. I actually started stamping because I wanted to be polite when a good friend invited me to "some home" party by a company I had never heard of before:) I feel in love imediately with what you could create with a few inks some stamps and paper, and so my paper crafting addict status began, lol. I am actually a make up artist so my love of colour and creating definately helps me with my paper projects. I don't know if I have a particular "style" per say but I do hear quite often that "I knew that was something you made". I love spritzing, detressing and sponging but I also really love fun, fresh colours. My true passion is scrapbooking and any project containing pictures, I have been known to say that "my brain thinks in pictures". Which is why challenges are so great for my creativity, I have a starting point.
I would love to be part of the Paper Players Design Team because: a) it gets me creating b) keeps me focused and c) I love looking at the submissions and visiting all the other wonderful crafting blogs out there. The Paper Players challenges are always so fresh and fun, it would be a privillage to work a long side so many talented paper crafters.
Okay now I am suppose to post 3 past projects and I will admit it was hard to choose but in the end I came up with these:

I just wanted to thank The Paper Players Team for holding an open call like this, it was fun to go back and look at some past projects.
Have a wonderful day,
