- Come On Get Crafty

Happy Friday, folks! Please join the Come On Get Crafty team in welcoming Melanie Blackburn as our featured guest today!

Hello everyone! I'm Melanie Blackburn and I'm so very excited to be guest designing for Come On Get Crafty! A little bit about me...I'm currently a SAHM to 3 beautiful girls. I started crafting when my oldest was born 8 years ago and I'm so very grateful for discovering this hobby. Along the way, I've met some amazing people who I now call friends. I've also had various opportunities which have helped me become the scrabooker/crafter that I am today. I love to play with paper, it satisfies two needs; one of which is to preserve memories for my family and the other is to do something crafty. I've always loved paper products. As a young girl I loved to browse the aisles of the local paper crafting store. I had a wide collection of notebooks, pretty pens, and stickers. This love of paper has now taken the form of scrapbooking. I describe my style as "eclectic flair". I love to mix patterns, embellishments, and include fun accents on my layouts. I love to add lots of layers and techniques to my projects and sewing on a layout is also a must for me. I'm so very happy to be sharing my layout with you today. Thank you Nicole and Adrienne!

We just love all the layers and techniques Mel used on this layout! Absolutely amazing!!! To learn more about Melanie and to see more of her fabulous work, check out her blog at http://www.melblackburn.blogspot.com
