The Cut Shoppe: Guest Designer Jen Chapin

Each month, we will have a Guest Designer sharing a layout, using cut files from The Cut Shoppe! I am excited to introduce our first Guest Designer, Jen Chapin! Jen has a great style and does an amazing job with cut files on her layouts! Let's get to know Jen and check out what she created!

Hi! My name is Jennifer Chapin. I am a 30-something wife, mom and nurse living in the Midwest. By day I work at a hospital about 45 minutes from where we live. At night I am in my scraproom after the kids are in bed. I am currently designing for Bella Blvd, Elle's Studio, Citrus Twist Kits and Paper Issues. I am so grateful for this hobby and all the friendships it has brought me. In addition to scrapbooking, I love cooking and trying new recipes, thrifting and antique shopping (let's not talk about how many typewriters I have) and reading magazines. I can't be without my coffee, Diet Pepsi or iPhone. Thanks to The Cut Shoppe for having me!

I am super excited to be guest designing for The Cut Shoppe! Ashley's designs are fabulous and super easy to work with. For my layout I chose the It Adds Up background cut file. I used kraft cardstock and mounted it with foam tape on a white background. I used a variety of patterned papers to back the negative spaces.
