We're introducing 2 Guest Designers this week!

Esther Porter

(For The Joy of Creating)

Getting to know Esther:

I am Esther Porter and I love crafting, I have been creating in one form or another since I was a very little girl painting rocks to look like ladybugs. While I enjoy almost all forms of crafting, paper crafting has become my passion ! I love crafting so much my husband remodeled a room in my house into a craft room, complete with cabinets, counters, peg board, etc.  It is where you will find me whenever I have free time. I have been married almost 25 years and have 2 beautiful daughters and 2 precious grandchildren. The only child living at home (other than my husband) is my 9 year old poodle, Jacquette, whom I love dearly.  I enjoy hiking, camping and waterskiing; but most of all I like to create!

I want to thank the gals at Card Patterns for giving me the honor of being a guest designer for this weeks challenge! I had a ball creating a card from this sketch and hope I share a little inspiration with you!

And this is Esther's beautiful take on the sketch:

Next up is........

Tracy MacDonald

I Wanna Build a Memory 

Getting to know Tracy:
My name is Tracy MacDonald and I've been making cards for about a year now.  I have always done some kind of crafting, but got involved in the online crafty world about a year and a half ago as a mini scrapbook album maker.  I share those on my YouTube channel along with several tutorials.  I've become addicted to Copic Markers and my kitchen table always looks like a craft store has exploded on it--just ask my indulging sweet hubby of 25 years and my 20 year old daughter.  I am honored to have been asked to Guest Design for Card Patterns and I hope you like my take on this week's sketch.


This is Tracy's fabulous take on the sketch:

And here our the team rockin' the sketch!
