Guest Designer:

Hi everyone! I am so excited to introduce you to this week's Guest Designer Roree Rumph.  Let's get to know Roree a little better ...

Describe yourself in 3 words …  Caring, Shy, Procrastinator.

My guilty pleasure is …  without a doubt - Starbucks.  I should own part of that company by now.  ;)

You’ll never find me without …  my iPhone.  I am addicted to playing games on it.  It comes in so handy when I am waiting around.

You might be surprised to know that I …  learned to sew because of scrapbooking.  And the funny thing is that my mom made a living with her sewing machine while I was growing up.  (She made custom draperies.)  I never had any interest in learning when I was younger.  

My least favorite chore is …  vacuuming.  My dogs are always bringing in dirt, so my floors always need to be cleaned.

I started scrapbooking in ...  2005.  I went to buy party invites for my daughter's 5th birthday party, and the ones I wanted were really expensive.  I decided to make my own, and after that I was hooked.  In hindsight, I should have gotten the expensive invitations.  I would have saved a ton of money in the long run.  LOL

My favorite thing about this hobby is ...  getting to be creative.  From picking and choosing color and patterns to making something from start to finish, I love it all.    

If I were a Pebbles product I would be ...  the felt flowers.  You can't go wrong with flowers!

Roree created so many amazing projects for us including this gorgeous layout about her daughter.  Here's what Roree had to say ... "When I saw the felt flower embellishments from the Happy Go Lucky collection, I immediately started looking through my photos for something with flowers.  I found these pictures of my daughter picking flowers when she was 2.  (She's now 11!)  The flowers were the perfect embellishment to help tell my story."

Here's what Roree had to say about her next project ... "The Happy Go Lucky collection seemed like the perfect choice for a "Happy Notes" card set.  I fell in love with those little birds, and I used them throughout the cards and the tin.  With these fun, bright colors, you can't help but feel happy!"

Here's what Roree had to say about her next project ... "The Ever After collection is perfect for layouts about little girls.  I actually got a little sad while making this layout though.  It reminded me just how big my girls are getting.  No more princess dresses, tiaras, and wands here.  At least I have the memories (and a few photos too!)."

And finally Roree created this adorable card perfect for any little girl.  Here's what Roree had to say ... "When I think of fairy tales, stars come to mind, (like "When you wish upon a star...").  I made a star shaped card and added die-cut flowers to the small rose brads to make them larger.  Then I layered the rest of the embellishments to make a card perfect for any little girl."
