Welcome Lori and Sherry!

Click HERE for our current challenge!

Hi everyone! Happy first weekend in December... hopefully you're getting your craft on! Please join me in welcoming two new designers to the Love To Craft Challenge Blog DT! Lori and Sherry will both begin creating with us on January 1st. They are both the newest designers on the Love To Scrap Challenge Blog DT, so needless to say, I was thrilled they wanted to 'cross over' to this DT too, lol! Click on their names above their photos and you'll go directly to their blogs which I know you'll love!

So without further ado, here are our new teammies, Lori and Sherry...

Hello! My name is Lori, and I am so excited to be a part of the Love to Craft Challenge Blog DT! I live in a small town in SW Missouri with my husband, Scott, and we have 3 kids and one granddaughter, whom I get the pleasure of watching during the week while her Mommy teaches! I started scrapbooking in 1998 and card making soon followed. There is nothing that relaxes me more than spending time in my craft room making pretty things! I have a pretty clean and simple style, although once in a while I do like to add a lot of layers to my projects. You can find more of my work at My Happy Life.



I'm Sherry, I was born in Kentucky and moved to Washington. I am married, I have three children and four grandchildren. I have enjoyed all types of arts and crafts ever since I can remember. Painting, needlework, scrapbooking, crocheting, cross-stitch, drawing and coloring - paper and pixels. When my children where little I enjoyed creating cards with a computer program, now I really enjoy making cards by hand. I am so very excited to be a part of the Love To Craft Challenge Blog Design Team!


Welcome, ladies! We're thrilled you're here!

Big hugs,
Leslie & the DT
