Guest Designer: Sarah Klemish

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


Describe yourself in 3 words … laid back, homebody, personable.

My guilty pleasure is … Diet Pepsi and Peanut M&M’s.

You’ll never find me without … a cup of ice to chew on.

You might be surprised to know that I … do not own any scrapping mists or inks.

My least favorite chore is … laundry.

I started scrapbooking in ... 2000.

My favorite thing about this hobby is ... the stuff!!!  LOVE product!  Some I may never use but I just have to have it!

If I were a Pebbles product I would be ... textured floral papers.  So feminine!


Sarah created so many amazing projects for us this week.  I especially love how she cut some of the flowers from the patterned paper to use as dimensional embellishments on this sweet layout.  Here's what Sarah had to say ... "On this project I just knew I wanted to use the With Delight Floral Lane paper!  This picture of my son and my sister-in-law's niece was perfect!  I really wanted the picture to stand out so I kept it simple.  I hand cut a few flowers from the With Delight paper and added buttons to the center for my main embellishment."



Pebbles supplies used:

Other supplies used:

Here's what Sarah had to say about her next project ... "I am totally in love with the Happy Go Lucky line and knew I wanted to play with the bright colors.  I am obsessed with my scallop punch and will find any reason to use it so I chose to scrap a “girly” picture.  I layered the papers and scattered the flowers and buttons throughout the layout.  I love the embossed stickers so I pop dotted the “Happy Day” stickers onto the journaling spot to complete the title."

I love the simplicity of Sarah's next layout and how the butterfly makes such a bold statement on the page.  Here's what Sarah had to say ... "I just love the texture of the Floral Lane papers!  I used the Making Memories SLICE to create a simple butterfly embellishment and completed this simple layout with stitching.  I love using small strips of patterns to layer – adds some variety without overpowering the pictures (my sister-in-laws niece Hannah).  The title says it all!"

Here's what Sarah had to say about her final project ... "These are some of my favorite pictures of my niece Shannen – I thought the Happy Go Lucky papers were a perfect match to her floral dress!  Again, I used my scallop punch to create layers of papers under the photos.  I also added some scallop layers up top to make the layout flow better.  Simple stitching, added chipboard flowers and a pop dotted embossed sticker for the title complete my layout."
