I would like to thank Melinda for being a guest in October. She has been great and gave me some very useful feedback, I still have some hybrid projects of her to share with you guys tomorrow, but now lets get to know our November guest a little better. Here is what Marta had to say:

My name is Marta, I am 34 and at the moment I am going through one of the happiest times in my life, I am 7 months pregnant. I have been married for a year and a half and this will be my first child. Talking about scrapbooking, it appeared in my life by chance two years ago, but since them it has become a great passion. I cant say I have a specific style because I like the experiment, but at the moment I prefer layouts with a clean design.

Marta has created a couple of layouts with my products, have a look how talented she is:

In these layouts Marta has used almost all my non collab kits, you can check my shoppe for these kits. I am looking forward to seeing more pages from Marta using my designs :)

For being a guest Creative Team member Marta received a 10 dollar coupon to the store and all November releases. If you would like to be a guest CT just send me links to your layouts using my products. You can leave the links here on the blog or send me an e-mail at michelle(at)withlovebymushy(dot)com.

I was so happy to have Ann-Marie as guest in September, she did an amazing job with the kits and is such a sweetie, but it is now time to let her go and announce a new guest to my Creative Team. I meet this girl on my very first Creative Team (it was for Dani Mogstad) and I was a little tickled when she showed me her pages and interest in being a guest on my CT. Please welcome Melinda to the blog: 

Here what she had to say:

I'm a SAHM to 5 kids ages 13 to 4. DH and I have been married for 19 years, and we live in the beautiful state of Colorado. I've been a scrapbooker for 12 years, and a digital scrapper for over 5 years. I love hybrid scrapping because it combines my love of digital and the need for some texture you can touch too. Michelle and I met on a creative team several years ago, and it has been fun watching her blossom as a designer as well as an awesome scrapper. Her designs fit my typical scrapping style and they are always a pleasure to work with.

aww thanks Melinda! You can read more about Melinda on her blog and see some more of her pages here.

Here are a couple more of Melinda's layouts with my designs, using Sunny Afternoon and Painted Alpha:

Here is two using my Playing with Paper set 15:

I love that she used both templates to create matching pages, just what I love to do on my own albums!

I usually I invite my guests at the beginning of the month and give them 15 days to play with the new goodies before announcing them here, but because I was away Melinda didn't have that time so watch this space for a future post showcasing whatever she comes up with.

Would you like to be the next guest on my Creative Team and win a 10 dollar certificate + ALL new releases? Just show me your pages using my designs, leave a link on this blog or send me an e-mail on michelle (at) withlovebymushy.com.

Hi everyone, hope you are well and enjoying my new releases ;) Today I want to spotlight my first ever guest creative team member. Picking my first guest ended up being an easy task. Please welcome Ann-Marie to the blog:

Ann Marie has been creating amazing pages with my designs and is usually the first to buy a new release. When she sent me a link to her layouts there wasn't really much to consider, she was the perfect first guest on my Creative Team. Let's hear what Ann-Marie had to say:

"I am a SAHM to my three kids and live in Melbourne, Australia.  I have been scrapping since 2006 and my other interests apart from scrapping include reading - especially vampire related novels LOL!, cooking and anything crafty!  I have been published a few times in Australia's Scrapbooking memories Magazine and am totally honoured and humbled to be chosen to guest on Michelle's CT!! "

No Ann-Marie, I am honoured that have found such a supportive fan out in the digi world! Thank you!

You can read more about Ann-Marie on her blog and see some more of her pages here.

Check out some of the beautiful pages Ann-Marie has created with my designs, which gave her the guest spot this month (please click on images for larger view):

First layout using the Snapping and Scrapping DailyDigi collab (my part will be up on the store soon) and the Sweet brushes. Second layout using Going hero, I just love that she created a Wii layout with it, I got so inspired, need to get one done too.

Using homework fun, these pages make me emotional for some reason, and I LOVE the design on the first one and the addition of paint of the second layout is perfect.

She created two adorable layouts using the new kit, Vintage treasures:

Her daughter is gorgeous and isn't this last layout just soooooo cute? I want to squeeze this little guy, lucky he doesn't live close by LOL!

and just because she is amazing, she created two more layouts with a mix of my kits, including the From the junkyard paper pack and textures:

I love seeing these kits in action and I am very grateful for people like Ann-Marie that really work them and support me in this little adventure.

If you would like to be my October guest CT, win all my releases for that month plus a 10 gift certificate to my store just send me an e-mail or post here links to your layouts using my designs.
