June Design Team kit in the works

The members of the Scrapbooks Plus Design Team now have June's kit and are hard at work creating their wonderful and varied layouts, cards, and projects for you. This month's kit using the Scenic Route Grafton line was chosen by our Designer of the Month, Kathryn Krieger, who often comes in to use the crop room on Wednesday evenings after work, if you'd like to meet her. The large Design Team Display in the crop room will change June 15th and each mid-month as the designers meet their deadlines using the new materials. Along with the changing displays, the product used in each month's kits will be highlighted nearby for you to find easily.

In addition, Kathryn's duties as Designer of the Month include making a project for you to do on your own. She has designed a fun summery mini album (mini-albums are her specialty) and has included all the Grafton papers and embellishments necessary, along with photos and instructions, to complete the project. Starting mid-month, you can see this specially-designed take-home Design Team Project behind the front counter and buy it while supplies last!

Our first Designer of the Month, Erin Saravia, already has a nifty Design Team Project for you to try. As May's Designer, she created a clever little photo album, small and sturdy enough for your purse, using a cardstock-folding formula that you can repeat easily for many more cute albums. Included in her project kit are instructions and all the supplies, including Jenni Bowlin papers and Erin's own hand-painted and hand-sewn flowers. This project is currently available at the front counter while supplies last!

The Design Team members are enjoying all your comments and hope to see many more to buoy our creative enthusiasm and to guide us as we share our ideas. Please scroll down and read past posts, too. Don't miss the giveaway, offered on May 30th, of Kathryn's fantabulous handmade "notes" book with My Mind's Eye papers. On June 6th, a winner will be picked from those who leave us comments on that May 30th post!  Join us as we build this creative site together!
