Please Welcome our September Guest Designer- Carissa Peach

Bio:
Hello Everyone. My name is Carissa Peach, which is funny to me, but I was married into it, my poor husband was named James Peach! And he is a Giant ;) . I am a stay at home mom, here in Denver, CO, with a fantastic husband and 3 year old daughter who I love to death and is the star of my art. I have been scrapbooking for over 9 years, but really got into it after the birth of my daughter in 2006 by becoming a Close to my Heart Consultant. I have always been a crafter of some kind and dabble in all faucets of art. My love of interior design helps me to create balance, functionality and interest in my art. I creating with sketches…if I have a mental block, I just use one of the many sketches out there to boost my creativity. I am really excited to be the September Guest Designer for My Sketch World and hope that I can inspire others to try something new. I loved Lucy’s sketch and had fun creating an inspiring project with them. For more inspiration visit me at my blog, www.justpeachycreations.blogspot.com .
