Vivi Casale of "Handmade by Vivi"
My name is Vivi Casale, I`m 45 yo, married with no children and live in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
I`m in paper crafting for about 10 years now and it all started with quilling technique.. I just could not believe what could be done with 3mm of stripes of papers.. I got crazy about it till I find out the world of rubber stamping... fell in love immediately... and now cant live without my copic makers and my stamps... just love to make a card!! and love how it brights someones day!!
I`m totally thrilled to be chosen for the Guest Designer spot, what an honor!! and I hope to inspire you for the challenge!

Sharon Gurnhill of "Nellie's Handmade Cards"
My name is Sharon and I live in the UK with my husband Russ. We have three daughters though life is very much calmer now as they have all flown the nest. I starting making cards about five years ago and I really wish I had found this hobby earlier. I started with just three draws of crafty goodies and now I have a whole room of my own – my sanctuary. Card making, my craft room and music, bliss. My passion is stamping and I love colouring – though I have a long way to go to be as talented as many crafters out there whom I am in awe of. I have been blogging for a year and this has led me to belong to 4 design teams. I feel very lucky to have met some wonderful blogging friends.
You Won 5 Digis from Saturated Canary

Hi everyone! Congrats to the winners! beautiful cards!!
Lisa! So happy for you!! How exciting!! Baby shopping!!! oooh!!! hehehe
I love walking through the baby department to pick out a gift for da babeee... :) I know that our local Saks here always has cute outfits. I always hit the sales rack. But, I'm just buying for friends though. I don't have any myself so i couldn't tell you where the best stores are. Sorry about that! Gap Kids is supposed to be pretty cute too.
