Introducing our January Guest Designer!

Please help us welcome Gina Rodgers to the MME team for the month of January!

We discovered Gina when we realized we had been pinning a LOT of her layouts. She has an amazingly cool and artsy style. We know you will love what she has to share this week.

 

Hi there, I'm thrilled to be guest designing for MME this month! I live in Tasmania, Australia with my partner Mark and our two gorgeous teens Rhiannon and Jemma. 

I've been scrapping for almost 6 years now and just love the creative journey this hobby is taking me on. I've been a big fan of MME products for a long time so this is dream come true!. I always struggle to define my style but I guess it could be described as fairly detailed with while still maintaining quite a lot  of white space.. 

I like to build up layers and play around with paint, mists and other mediums to add texture to my layouts. I design for a few companies including ScrapFriends (Australia) Citrus Twist Kits (USA) and I'm also a Jenni Bowlin Studio Ambassador.

You can keep up with Gina through her wonderful BLOG.

Q: what did you have the most fun working with?

A:I loved working with the Lost & Found 3: Oliver as the rich, warm colours really appealed to me...and how much fun are the enamel dots in both the Oliver and Ruby lines? I think I am addicted!

Q: what is your favorite MME line of all time and why?

A:It's very hard to narrow it down to one favourite, but I had so much fun creating with The Sweetest Thing 'Bluebell' collection, in particular the gorgeous mix of blues, yellow and neutrals.

Gina says:I created this page using one my favourite photos of my girls spending time together. The message is a simple one but I wanted them to know how much they mean to me.I've layered papers, tape, stickers and also some 'decorative buttons' packaging behind the photo.

Gina says:Here is a second layout using the gorgeous 'Oliver' line and it's of my eldest daughter and a friend.I've used some banner style chipboard elements under the photo and double stitched them in place. 

The cotton scraps have been used under a couple under of buttons to add texture to the layout.

How AWESOME is Gina? We are so happy to have her joining us this month! Check back tomorrow for two more equally stunning layouts.
