Granne says,
I'm a Finnish mother of 2 teenage girls. I’ve been stamping
since 2011. I got started when my neighbour introduced me to the world
of stamping and paper crafting in real life and in blog land; that’s how
my blog also got it’s name: Granne (= neighbour in Swedish). Usually I made cards, but do love making ATC’s, Art Journal,
altered items, and, and, and ... what ever seems to be fun and inspires
me. Sometimes things work out nicely sometimes not, but I have fun
creating.

Thank you for having me as your GDT for this great new challenge, love your take on the theme!
Thank you for not making patterned paper compulsory — somewhat increases my chances of producing something I can share! Three lovely samples, a great showcase for scraps.
Wonderful squashed scrap cards from the Designers! Happy to be using scraps for my design (except for card base). Loll
Amazing inspirations from you all and such a great way to use scraps of patterned papers!! A technique to try for sure! :)
Thank you for the challenge. Lovely work by the design team.
I have used two embossing folders with my scrap papers
