Friday's Featured Artist - Misty from "Shabby Beautiful Scrapbooking"

Hello everyone!! We have a very talented friend to share with you today!! I just found her blog a couple days ago and was very intrigued. This weeks featured artist is:

Misty! You have got to check out her blog "Shabby Beautiful Scrapbooking". I was so inspired by her work that I asked her to be our featured artist this week! 

Here's what Misty had to say about herself - "I am married to a wonderful man (we celebrate 18 yrs married this year!) who supports me in everything I do, and I have 2 awesome teenage sons. Some days they're more awesome than others! I am very blessed to still be a Stay-At-Home-Mom, even though my babies are pretty grown up (13 and 16) I get to spend time up in my studio scrapbooking and creating kits that I sell on my blog and on Etsy. I love the shabby chic/vintage look and am completely obsessed with old vintage postcard images....something about those little pieces of art just makes me happy! I'm brand new to blogging and Youtube and am waaaay out of my comfort zone with it, but I am giving it a whirl! ....my girlfriend said "You have a blog? Who wants to read about your life?!" lol...you gotta love an honest friend, and I've thought the same thing on more than one occasion! That's about it! Thank you for choosing me to be the Featured artist. I am honored and humbled! Warmly, Misty"  

Bet you're intrigued by this photo aren't you?! This is stunning and you'll find the whole album AND video tutorial at Shabby Beautiful Scrapbooking. Please take a moment and visit Misty and be sure to let her know what you think of her work. You will absolutely LOVE the rest of this album!!!

Thursday's Feature - "Happy Valentine's Day"

"the paper and hearts are the wrapping from the gifts that I gave my husband last Valentine's Day on his gifts. I just "recycled" it and so it matches the pictures perfectly cuz it's the SAME paper!" 

Happy Groundhog day to you all!  Did you hear?  6 more LONG weeks of winter.  Although... I might debate.  We have clear blue sunny skies where I live!  

Today I am bringing you the FEATURED layout from HEIDI.  You can't get too much more recycled than that!  She used wrapping paper from V-Day gifts as her scrapbook paper!  This is the 2nd time I  have seen this.  Must do!!  

CONGRATULATIONS HEIDI!  Grab your "Featured" badge from the left side bar and display proudly!!  
You have LOTS of time left to join our Current Challenge. Saturday @ 9pm EST is the due date!!  We have such a wonderful giveaway!!  Trash, Recycled items, really old scrap supplies... show us what you have!  Can't wait to see!
Have a great day!!  ~Michele
