April "Journal Me This" (**CLOSED**) Challenge & New DT Member

Hello April! We have a new challenge this month BUT first we want to introduce you to a new addition to our I Am Roses family, all the way from the UK.

Welcome Design Team Member

 DONNA SMITH!

"Hi, I'm Donna and I live in the UK with my husband and our lovely dog Kody, a Jack Russell. I've been paper crafting now for 6 years and I love making cards, scrapbook layouts and decorating altered items to decorate our home. I love the European style of cardmaking which is to use lots of flowers and embellies on cards and layouts. . I also do a lot of research into the craft trends in papercrafting for my own online business and I also help to launch artists into the digital world of crafting.  I'm fortunate to have been on many design teams and it's been a dream of mine to be on I Am Roses Design Team."
