Day 16 - Imagine This

Today we have two cards to show you, because we have ANOTHER fabulous guest designer! We'll also have a card from one of our regular designers - and both cards are wonderfully different and imaginative. Which brings me to the theme of today's challenge.

With Spring right around the corner - at least in here in Washington - I think it only fitting that our first "Imagine This" challenge is all about SUNSHINE! Use an image of the sun, or use the card to convey how it makes you feel. With that said, let me introduce today's guest designer:

Jillian Deiling


Hi! My name is Jill Deiling. I'm 24 years old and I live in Oklahoma. I'm originally from Alaska and will always be an Alaskan girl at heart, I miss it very much! I live with my 3 year old son, Alex and my boyfriend, John. They are my favorite people in the world and they are definitely my favorite scrapbook subjects! I get to stay at home taking care of my son most of the time, but I often help out with my boyfriend's parent's cable business as well. During my free time you'll find me playing with my son, of course, shopping (I'm a shopaholic!), cleaning (I'm also a clean freak!) or scrapbooking. Scrapbooking is my absolute favorite hobby. I've been scrapbooking since high school and I have never stopped since. I don't get much sleep because of it, I often stay up late at night just to scrapbook, but it's definitely worth it! :)

One look at Jill's card, and you'll see why I thought her style was perfect for this challenge:


Bright, bold, and super fun! Thanks, Jill, for sharing your talent with us :) Don't forget, 365ers, to check out her blog Crazy Beautiful for more bright and bold creations!

And of course, Monday always brings a card from DT member Gloria. And here it is:


The shades of orange and yellow absolutely convey the warmth that sunshine brings - just looking at this card makes me smile - how about you?

Okay, now it's your turn. Come on and shed some light on this challenge and link up!
