October’s Guest Designer!
Please welcome Karen Madden of Lilacs and Lupines as we shine the FCD spotlite on her art for October!!
A little bit about Karen:
“I live on the rocky shores of Maine with Rick (my husband), Bobby (my son), Brownie (my springer spaniel) and Shirley (my kitty). I am a SAHM, PTA President at my sons school and any spare time I can find, I absolutely love to paper craft! I get no greater joy than to try new techniques, product lines or ideas. I could not be more thrilled to be the Guest Designer of October for Firecracker Designs by Pamela.” (and she tells ME, this is her first ever Guest Designer Spotlite!! woo hoo!)

And now for a little art:
Her first project is a gift jar and what perfect timing to share one of these huh? (Get started on those Christmas/Holiday gifts!)
1a & 1b pictures ~ I made this jar (and three others
to hold different flavored coffees for a little gift for my son’s teacher. I thought the set was perfect and in particular love how the jar top looks!
Stamp sets used: Escape the Daily Grind
the wrap around for the jar:
Check back next week on Monday, and I”ll post MORE of Karen’s fabulous creations!!
