Welcome New Designer Solange Marques!

We would like to welcome Solange Marques as our newest member of the design team! Solange has created some stunning layouts with the February Kit! Here is more about Solange in her own words:


I am Solange Marques and I live in Curitiba, Brazil. I've been in love with scrapbooking since 2004. I have been married to João for almost 29 years and I have five children: Camila (28), Alexandre (27), Bruno (24), Gabriela (18) and Miguel (13). We also have a granddaughter, Clara (5) and a grandson , Samuel (2). I majored in Architecture and Fine Arts (perhaps that explains my huge passion for painting and its constant presence in my layouts). I've worked in a bank as a jewelry appraiser for almost 25 years, which consumes most of my time and keeps me from having a greater production of scrapbooking pages. I love mixing techniques, mainly involving paint and textures. I think one of my most recognizable technique is to merge the photo with the background (this is my favorite technique)! I love the artsy style!

Today I'm happy to share my first projects as a Design Team member. For all layouts I used the February Main Kit and Paper Add-on.

For my first layout I used a photo of myself on my birthday last month.
