June 2015 Guest Designer Arnlaug Koppang from Norway

Hello everyone!  It's Nicole Doiron here with you today!!

June is my favorite month of the year

(perhaps it has a little to do with the fact that it's my birthday month ;P)

& the Scrap Around the World June mood board,

designed by Veera Saarivuo from Finland,

is also a favorite of mine with its lovely pastel hues & sweet flowers.

You have shared amazing projects so far,

& all of us at SATW are looking forward to seeing more.

In the meantine, I'm very happy to introduce you to our June Guest Designer!

First, please view our current challenge *HERE* 
& our mid-month reveal based on the same challenge *HERE*.

Having been the winner of our April 2015 challenge, 

she was asked to come back this month

to inspire us with another layout in her beautiful style,

this time based on the June mood board...

Arnlaug Koppang {Norway}

Let's get to know Arnlaug a little better:

"Hello!  I am Arnlaug Koppang, a 33 year old 'girl' from a small island 

on the west coast of Norway. I'm married & we have 2 sweet girls & a cute little puppy.

 I work full time as a social worker so the days are busy. I mainly make 

layouts but sometimes I try out other projects. I love scrapping because it's 

a hobby for both memory keeping & creating art. When I scrap, 

my mind relaxes & it takes me away from the busy everyday life. 

I am a scrapper with a lot of variety with many different styles. 

But I have to say I'm having a blast when I'm playing with mixed media :-) 

You can visit my blog at Arnlaugshobby.blogspot.com"

Take a look at Arnlaug's gorgeous take on our mood board!

Arnlaug was able to capture many elements of the mood board,

the soft colors & graphic simplicity with a touches of white.

The resin flowers are so sweet!

I love Arnlaug's attention to details... even a simple thing as 

a metal staple makes a big difference! 

Stenciling with white paste adds just the right amount of texture on the background.

Thank you so much Arnlaug for participating in our challenges &

for agreeing to be our Guest Designer this month.

We were wowed by your April winning layout & we also absolutely love this one!

Please leave Arnlaug some love in the comments
& visit her blog HERE to see more details on how she created 
this layout as well as more of her outstanding creations.

For any of you who haven't linked your project yet,
we hope that you will be inspired to play along & link up soon!

Challenge closes Tuesday, 30th June!
