Introducing amanda muirhead….our december guest artist

December 30, 2009 by admin 

Hey everyone!  My name is Amanda Muirhead.  I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, home to the land of red soil and Anne of Green Gables. I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have a precious 4 year old daughter, Larissa.  I started scrapbooking about 10 years ago but my passion for this craft grew tremendously when Larissa was born.   I have always loved pretty papers, glitter, writing tools and basically anything crafty so scrapbooking was a natural hobby for me to pick up.  I love everything about scrapbooking so it never feels like a chore or obligation…just having fun with the benefit of preserving memories for my family.

I want to thank Pink Paislee for this wonderful opportunity to show off the Cupid collection and thank you for checking out my creations!

amanda’s creations for pink paislee:

FINALLY we get to share our December guest artist with our blog readers today.  We had such a busy jam packed blog this month (remember those 12 days of christmas giveaways???) and unfortunately Amanda was forced to wait until the end of the month to share her creations.  Not only did we make her wait all month we made her wait all year!  Last January we selected our 2009 guest artists and Amanda held the title for December which meant she had to wait all year to receive her goodie box and get started.  Let me tell you it was completely worth the wait!  If you aren’t convinced that you need some of this Cupid collection after seeing these amazing layouts then you are just plain silly!  We love how she created a bowtie out of the canvas patch, used the xoxo clear stamp repeatedly to create a border and we love all the fun ways she layered our punchouts!  Gorgeous gorgeous work.

To get to know Amanda better we invite you to visit her BLOG HERE.

A huge thank you to Amanda for waiting every so patiently to get crafty with a little bit of Pink Paislee.  She told us she used up every inch of what we sent to her and I totally believe it.
