Featured Guest Designer for challenge 105 Monochromatic

Hello and happy Friday!

 
******** 
  
Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are happy to introduce
our very talented
Guest Designer

Marion Lones

Here's a little about Marion: 


Hello there!  My name is Marion Lones and I am so thrilled and happy to be

 this weeks Featured Guest Designer here at Fussy and Fancy.
 
For those who do not know me or do not know me that well,
I am 48 years old.
I am happily married to Ruud, my hubby.
Our two cats complete our household and are called Moppie and Droppie,
both black cats and sisters.
 
I live in the Netherlands.
 
I have been crafting for several years now.
I started with scrapbooking and slowly it turned into different projects
  and cards with papers instead.
 
 However, I still love to scrapbook every now and then.
I use mostly my cats photos when I am scrapbooking,
I love to make mini-albums about them.
I found my own style and what almost always comes back is my paper sewing,
  which I do by hand.
I love to use animals on my card and mostly you can always
 find a cat on my creations as well, if not for the image, then as a diecut somewhere on my card.
But I also love the cute stamps in general.
 
but you can always choose to follow me on
Facebook, Instagram or Bloglovin.
You will find a link to those three social medias on my blog.
I love to craft and try to craft everyday, if regular life is not in my way .
 
Challenges are entered when time allows, but I do love to enter challenges
and I  love to look at my fellow entries.
 
I hope you enjoyed my short introduction.
 
Happy Crafting,
Hugs,
Marion

Hello everyone! 
They say,  "New Year, New Start", and that certainly is the case for me. 
I have lots of new projects coming up in this Crafting Year and I am really looking forward to getting tucked in to it.
  I love being on the Clarity Design Teams and always look forward to playing with their new Stamps.
 
 One of my Projects this year, is for a lovely Café in my local area where
I used to hold a few classes, called,  "Kings Coffee".
 
They have asked me if I would put some of my work in and around the Café  for display
and sale because they are turning it into an Art Café!
Isn't that great?  
They have also asked if I would put in some of my "Tag You're It" cards that I designed last year,
 so it's a really busy time for me!
 
  This is why I have decorated a canvas for this challenge!
I will be making some for the Café, and I do love to decorate Artifacts.
 
It is a pleasure to be Hosting this Fussy & Fancy Challenge!
 We have a great Design Team and I do love to see what work comes into our challenge.
  I love to see a variety of styles.  I bet it will be hard to pick the top 5.
 It normally is but it gives me a chance to have a little nosey at every one's work
 and your Blogs if you have them.
Sam xx
