Our March Guest Designer is 
Nicole Doiron
"I'm Nicole from Canada's beautiful East coast! I share my home with my fiance Yves and our fur baby Sugar the cat. I love reading, music (yes! I do sing in the shower sometimes!), social game nights with friends, road trips and spending as much time in my scrap room as I can! I have a shabby chic romantic style and I love to dabble with mixed media techniques. I started scrapbooking in 2004, starting blogging about it in 2011 and it has been a marvelous adventure ever since!  I have had many wonderful designing opportunities throughout the years and I am now thrilled to be a Guest Designer for Scrap Our Stash!  I really hope that you will enjoy my creations this month and that you will visit my blog Scrap-Utopia to see more."

and here's her fantastic layout:
Here's what Nicole shares about her layout:
What a wonderful sketch this is and it enabled me to dig up a lot of old stash.  Papers used are from My Mind's Eye including the graphic paper behind the picture of my nieces.  I love graphic paper so that was an easy choice for me out of list 1.  Out of list 2, I decided to go with Heidi Swapp Citron Color Shine spray on the background as well as the 'epic' epoxy sticker as part of my title.  List 3 was a bit more of a challenge, but I finally decided to add some subtle polkadot design using a Heidi Swap stencil and walnut stain Ranger Distress ink pad.  I also did some doodling and some journaling with a marker.  Thank you once again to Scrap Our Stash for having me as a Guest Designer this month and for the inspiration for this fun bright layout! :)

Now it's your turn! 
Make sure you upload your layout on the side bar before March 29th!

  2. So it's been about two years since I did any challenges outside ACOT but in searching for sketch ideas, I remembered you girls and remembered that I always loved your designs! And I was not disappointed as this was the perfect sketch for what I wanted to do. Thanks for looking!
