Janet Perafan-Babar: More than Just Color
Hello Card Patterns! I am Janet, a Mommy to three young children - two boys and a girl, ages 7, 9, and 11 and a wife to my husband for almost 16 years. I am a night owl, but during the day I am either working from home managing our transportation company, volunteering at the school, or preparing lessons for my children's supplemental home schooling. I started paper scrapping in 2006. I don't have a signature style, I like all styles and pretty much go with whatever mood the sketch and products take me. It's been a long while since I created a page, my passion now is creating cards. My other scrapbooking passion is designing with color. I truly enjoy creating color combos and it's the basis for a long-time running challenge site that I created in 2007. My days are full and my nights are long. My favorite items to scrap with is twine and punches, I have never used a sewing machine on anything paper, I drink too much coffee, my favorite color is turquoise, my favorite food is Burger King's French Fries, my crafting studio is in the basement, and I chill to either Classic New Wave 80's music like Inxs, Depeche Mode or Modern Indie Folk music like Lenka, Priscilla Ahn or Adele when I am creating. Thank you, Michelle, Tracy and the rest of the Card Patterns team for this opportunity to be this week's Guest Designer, I am beyond thrilled and honored!

And here is Janet's take on the sketch this week:

Sketch 162

We're back with a simple little sketch I drew up for you- I hope you enjoy it!!



Yes...Sparkle is her real name. She has been crafting since she was a child, but seriously started crafting when she was 16. Sparkle started as a scrapbooker, though over the years she has turned into a cardmaker. Brent (Sparkle's husband) and Sparkle opened SparkleCreations Rubber Stamps in July 2010, and they are selling cute and whimsical rubber stamps of little boy and girl images. Aki, their wonderful artist, has done a great job at making their characters come alive and have their own personalities.



The randomly picked winner this week will receive 2 stamps from Sparkle Creations: Street Corner Josh & Swimming Lucy!

Hello everyone, my name is Connie MacFarlane and I am so excited to be Guest Designer at Card Patterns this week. I live in a small town in eastern Ontario, Canada with my incredible husband of over thirty years. I have two wonderful grown daughters who unfortunately live many hours away, one in Toronto and one in Calgary. I started crafting at a very early age when I learned how to sew clothes for my Barbie using patterns and my mother’s old treadle sewing machine. Since then I have tried my hand at many arts and crafts, but I would have to say that paper crafting has become one of my favourites. I started scrapbooking about seven years ago and expanded to card making and entering challenges last year when I started my blog. I am in awe of all of the fabulous talent out there and can’t wait to see what you do with this week’s sketch.

And here is Connie's adorable take on the sketch:
