Guest Design Team Invite honoree for shaped card: Leslie M

profile: Hello, I am excited about being a Guest DT here at HQFSCAT.  

A little about myself, I am a mother of 2, grandmother of 5 and a great grandmother

of 1 and another one on the way.  I fell in love with scrapbooking and card making

around 2009, I have been on a few design teams in the past, and maybe will try

and throw my hat back in the ring in the future now that I have more time on my 

hands.  I am excited for you all to inspire me this month, and give me some new ideas.

Guest Design Team Invite honoree for shaped tag: Maria'

profile: Hi! I'm from Spain and I live in Cáceres, the city where the last seasons of Game of Thrones and The House of The Dragon have been filmed. I started to make cards, tags, art journaling, etc. in 2013 after a trip to Edinburgh where I found a lovely stationery shop where they had stamps, washi tapes, papers and other stuff. When I arrived home I started to play with all the things I had bought and from that moment I haven’t stopped.

Awesome!

Super creative shape structures for cards and tags!

Thank you so much Leslie M and Maria' for accepting the GDT invites! Precious inspiration projects!
