Hello friends! We hope you're enjoying this wonderful summer weather. Michelle here posting today, enjoying the gorgeous summer here in Alberta, Canada where the Royal Couple is visiting Calgary Stampede.

Marjan's Blog

Getting to know Marjan:
My name is Marjan, I live with my husband in a town near The Hague in The Netherlands. We have two children, both grown up and living in the same town. My husband and I are both teachers in a primary school in the centre of The Hague. I have had many hobbies before this one, but scrapbooking and cardmaking is the only one that stayed with me. I really LOVE it! Something I also like to do is working with Photoshop, I make my own digital sentiment stamps. In summer there is my pond with the frogs and small water salamanders in them that attracts me, they often make me smile.


Here is Marjan's gorgeous take on the sketch. Make sure you visit her blog (click on her name above) and leave her some love.

I was in awe when I saw the team's interpretation of this sketch. I can only say a 7-letter word - AWESOME!
