November Layout Guest Designer

Help me welcome today, our November Layout Guest Designer Birgit.
 Hello! My name is Birgit and I was born in 1978. Together with my loved husband and my 3 sons (born in 1999 & 2009) I live in Germany close to the Dutch border.
In the spring of 2010, I designed a digital photo book about the first year of our twins. In the search for new inspiration, I came across so many brilliant scrapbook pages on the internet that I was curious. So I ordered my first paper kit and scraped my very first paper-layout in June 2010. Since then this hobby has become an integral part of my life. The scrapping is a balance of everyday life for me. Here I can relax, let my mind wander or switch off the " thinking machine " complete, while also preserve our memories! ;-)
If you want to know more about me, or want to look at some of my works, then feel free and visit me on my blog: www.scrapinfeacted.blogspot.com
I'm very happy to be a guest designer for Sketch-N-Scrap! The sketches are just great!
 And check out this wonderful layout she did based on yesterday's sketch. I love all of the hand drawn lining she did around her elements and the splatter. Thanks so much Birgit!
