Let's give a BIG Welcome to our Guest Designer Janice Melton. 

 Janice will be sharing her creations during the Month of April with all of us.

Hello, my name is Janice. I live in South Central PA with my wonderful husband, 2 awesome sons, and 6 crazy cats. I’m so excited to be guest designing with Great Impressions this month! I have always been crafty, I grew up doing things like embroidery and crocheting. I started scrapbooking when my boys were younger and then along the way I discovered stamping. I guess I would describe my style as clean and layered? I’ve been making cards for about 10 years now. Thanks to Great Impressions for letting me share them with you this month!

Now let's see what Janice created to inspire you!

 Janice did an amazing job with our Theme this month! Her coloring, paper-piecing and design makes an awesome card. Make sure you head over to  Janice's Blog to see how she put this beautiful card together. Don't forget to leave her some love while you are there. 

Now it's time for a little Inspiration from our Designers ...
