October Card Guest Designer

Please join me in Welcoming our October Card Guest Designer Maria!
My name is Maria! I am from Russia, but now I live with my husband Nicolas in Switzerland since September. Making scrapbooking’s helps me to feel good. Since I was small, my mummy taught me how to create handmade crafts. I started to make scrapbooking recently. I learned scrapbooking about one year ago, but got more involved with it since 6 months. I just love to create scrapbooking’s, and I am just crazy about it.  I like to stay up at night, quiet late in fact, to create and to give my creations to my friends and to see how happy they are when they get my artistic work.

Since I am a beginner, I do for the moment mostly cards. I also like to make folders for CD’s or DVD’s, notebooks and various boxes. I try to learn new styles and find my own way.  I like to find my inspirations in my surroundings and through anything that I see or touch. 

Check out Maria's Blog

Check out the card Maria did based on yesterday's sketch! It is stunning! I love the oval die cut piece, it is so delicate and beautifully paired with the pretty florals. Thanks Maria!
