Guest Designer: Melissa Stinson + Giveaway

Hi! I'm Melissa Stinson from Scrappy Jedi blog, and I live with my husband, Darren, in Huntsville, Alabama, where I work as a software engineer (when I'm not playing with paper!). I'm so excited to be the Guest Designer for Doodlebug this month!

I first started scrapbooking the summer after I graduated from high school, when my parents gave me a camera as a graduation gift. Soon after that I found myself in the scrapbooking aisle at my local Michaels, and between the loads of new photos I was suddenly taking and the graduation money that had recently been given to me, a new scrapbooker was born!

Doodlebug Designs products have a special place in my heart. I love the color palette and the bright, fun designs, and Doodlebug was actually the first manufacturer that I learned to recognize by name. I remember stalking my JoAnn store (I didn't have an LSS at the time) waiting for the new goodies to come out! I admit that I still have a stash of All Mixed Up rub-on alphas (in every color!) hanging around my scrap room- I love them just as much today as when they first came out!





  These are so awesome...consider PINNING them to PINTEREST!! 







GIVEAWAY DETAILS: 
Visit Melissa's blog and subscribe or leave her a comment. Then come back and tell us you did this. One lucky winner will win a goodie box of Melissa's favorite Doodlebug products. 

Contest Ends: Sunday, June 3rd at 11:59pm MST. Winner will be announced on Monday, June 4th.
