And introducing our April GDT winner, Isay!

hello! first of all, let me just say that i am really honored to be SKETCHY THURSDAYS April Guest designer for this month and i can't wait to share with you my creations. my name is Melissa but you can call me isay (e-sai) as many of you know me.

i live in Escondido, CA . i am a full time nurse working on PM shift (love it less stress bcoz no bosses around LOL!) i am also a wife to a very supportive and understanding man, a mother to three beautiful blessings, Justin (11yo), Joseph (4yo), and my only girl, Jylian (2yo). i started scrabooking 4 yrs ago with my best friend when i was pregnant with my 2nd child.

scrapbooking is my therapy and my stress-reliever it helps me keep my sanity intact. my scrapbooking have improved significantly and my style varies, it really depends on the photos and papers that i'm going to use but i do love to add lots of details, layerings, and love fussy cutting on my LO's.

i am currently one of the Mavens at SKETCHES IN THYME, my very first DT work. i am also proudly designing for THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS and FROM SCREEN TO SCRAP challenge blog. i've been playing along with a lot of challenge blogs and luckily won some of them- i especially love sketch challenges.

you are always welcome to visit my blog at - http://isay-creativegenius.blogspot.com and say Hi! Have a wonderful day and God Bless.

And here is what Isay made for this week's sketch.
