I work for 3 days per week for now, so a have a little bit of time to craft,
Just love to color up all kind of images and after that making cards with all the beautiful papers you can find in the craft stores here.
Finally got my own space, a crafting-corner in the house, so  now I have more space to craft, everything better than the kitchen table.

Today we have the lovely and talented


Gina Fruebel

Here is a little bit about Gina

 I live in Belgium with my darling husband and a cute little dog, a West Highland White Terrier.
I was always already ‘creative’, drawing, colouring, crocheting. Actual card making started about three years ago (early 2014). At that time I was actually looking for a creative way to showcase my pictures. Photography is probably the oldest hobby I have and keep on practicing. As a result I have tons of pictures waiting for a destination. Mostly from the holidays and off course, my eye catching dog. I’ve been doing a little bit of scrapbooking, but quickly turned on to card making. I started my own blog in November 2014, and have been blogging since.  To check out my creations you can visit my blog at http://freubel69.blogspot.be

In Celebrating the Birthday of Color it Create it Show it off,  We are also celebrating our fabulous Designers. So periodically throughout the month a designer will be featured on the blog so come and check out their work.  If you are looking for our Challenge you can find it here

Today we have the lovely and talented
Sue Crease

Hi i'm Sue and I live here in Milton Keynes in United Kingdom.
I have been married to a wonderful understanding man for this last 30 years and we have a son who is 23.
I have been crafting in one form or another most of my life but Paper crafting for the last 20 years.
I love to scrapbook as our son is autistic and he loves to look back at photos of his family and it's so much nicer to add keepsakes to a page too. 
Card making is my passion and I am lucky to be able to sell to friends and neighbours, which in turn allows me to buy more!
I have recently taken up colouring images and I'm so happy to be part of the My Besties family of design team girls and boys.
You can find some of my designs on my blog at Paper Pleasure.
