12.02 sketch

Happy December! 

I think this week's sketch works equally well for every day and holiday themed layouts.  Have some fun with it!!!

You have until 10pm EST next Wednesday, December 8 to hook up your layout to Mr. Linky in the sidebar for your chance to win a prize from Paper Maniac.  More on that below.

But first, some inspiration from our DT:

Heather - Guest Design Team Member

I'm excited to introduce to you our December and January Guest Design Team Member, Heather Leopard.  

In her own words:

"I am so excited to be your guest designer this month! A little about me - I'm a marketing manager for a high tech computer company and I scrap every free moment I get! What I care most about though is my FAMILY. My hubby and I were engaged for only 3 days before we were married in St. Lucia, West Indies in 2002. I have a wonderful step-son and 2 beautiful daughters. They are indeed my muses. I've been scrapping for about 8 years but got really serious about a year ago...I have a lot of catching up to do. My hubby is a saint and supports my hobby 100%.

As for my style, I wish I could say I have a set style but I really don't, at least not that I've identified yet. I think if I were to put a label on it I would limit myself, subliminally. I pretty much go where the photos and my mood of the moment take me.

In my spare time, when I'm not playing with the kids or scrapping, you can find me on an underwater diving adventure. To see more of my work, stop by my blog at http://www.thespottedleopard.blogspot.com/."

Yes, you read that right.  Heather will be our GDT for both December and January.  With the holidays pulling for everyone's attention, we didn't want to shortchange a potential GDT sponsor during the month of December. 

Everyone please join me in giving Heather a warm welcome!

And, as promised, more about this week's sponsor, Paper Maniac.
