Happy Monday!! We'd love to introduce this week's Featured Designer, *Mandy King*! Mandy is a great Designer at MyMemories and we're sure you'll love her too! Here's some fun stuff Mandy wanted to share with you:
My name is Mandy King and I live in Ohio with my husband and four children (two girls and two boys). Teaching sixth graders was my first career, but since having my first baby in 2001, I have been a stay-at-home mom. I started paper scrapbooking back in 1998 but discovered digital in 2005 and there was no looking back! I LOVE designing and working with bright colors is my favorite...if you find pastels in my creations, you know that I was forced OR had a moment of insanity! As far as my own scrapbooks go...don't ask! I am woefully behind (like YEARS), but my youngest goes to kindergarten next fall and I have lofty goals of catching up. Aside from scrapbooking, here's some random information about me...I love to read. My favorite genre is historical fiction, although I read all types of books. My favorite book is Gone With The Wind, but I adore the Harry Potter series, 39 Clues series, anything by Janet Evanovich, Anne of Green Gables and I’ve recently discovered – and devoured – the Mary Russell series by Laurie R. King. I almost always have a John Grisham novel in the works as well and have been known to read the same book many times over. My favorite season is Autumn, no question. It means football (go Bengals!), shorts with sweatshirts and the amazing colors as the leaves are changing. I’m not a fan of really hot weather, so I welcome the cooler temperatures. As a mom, I’d have to say that Christmas is my favorite holiday…I love watching the magic of the season through my kids’ eyes. Someday I’d like to create a new reality tv show, one where you take stay-at-home-moms and send them to some tropical paradise ALONE for a month – and have their husbands take over running the house and children. My husband is wonderful about me getting out for the evenings and even weekends (I go scrapbooking; imagine that!), but before leaving, I have to arrange the meals, carpools, be sure the laundry is done, do the shopping…you know the routine. I think the whole thing would be a complete hoot! (And I’d be watching from my island get-away, laughing while tears stream down my face!). I consider myself very blessed to have met so many wonderful people through digital scrapbooking. The supportive and encouraging community at My Memories just affirms my opinions that scrapbookers are among some of the most wonderful people on earth!

My favorite kit is Bohemian Blessings. :)
I think the Wonderful You kit is just lovely!
I like Love Came Down kit. Carol x
I love this blog, I love meeting new designer. To be honest this is my friest time seeing your stuff and I'm not going to lie I'm in love! I love all the word are and background frames. But if I have to pick one it would be funky day
Congrats Mandy!! So excited that you are designer of the week. I had to LOL at the "Shorts with sweatshirts" comment. :) I know EXACTLY what you mean by that! My hands down, absolute favorite is Chromatic Symphony! I LOVE the colors and happy feelings I get when looking at this kit. :)
My favorite is definitely Funky Day. It has the retro look I love with the colors I tend to gravitate toward. To top it off, there are stars, which are my weakness!
Congrats on being designer of the week! My favorite kit is Spunky Sweet. It´s such a cute kit and it´s perfect for the sweet pictures of my two little girls. Thank you so much for the chance to win!
I love the boyish tees! so cute!!
I couldn't pick just one, I found three that I really like; Funky Hodgepodge, Date it tags, and Spunky Sweet.
My favorite is Let the Sun shine!
Congrats on being featured designer of the week Mandy! I had to go look in my files to see which of your kits I have and I obviously must love all your winter stuff because I have Frosted, The Frosty way, Christmas Comes Softly, and Longhorn Holiday haha. I guess it's time to warm up to a new season. The next kit I was looking to buy is 'Peace of Mind'. Have a fun week :)
Congrats Mandy! Are you really going to make me pick just one? I have to admit I laugh every time I see "Thank You God For Dirt". With the exception of a daughter, I have all guys in my life. This kit fits the bill!
I'd have to say that my favorite kit that I don't already have is Fiddle Dee Dee. Love the colors in it! Thanks for the chance to win!
I really love the one called Just around the bend...
Look at all those colors...really pretty...
Love your stuff! "Frosted" is my new favorite kit! I'm going back years and scrapping all those lovely snow scenes with it. It really captures the spirit of a snowy day.
Well, unlike Mandy, I *love* pastels! It makes sense then that girly charm paper pack would be my favorite. :-)
Congrats on being featured designer! My favorite kit is Cheyenne. I love the colors & don't currently have any kit like it.
I love the Funky Day Kit and Miss Mandy King your stuff rocks. I need to buy more of your stuff it is on my wish list.
hi mandy, i said it once and i'll say it again, you and i are a lot alike. my first love is reading and i will read a book over and over if i love it. i have read stephen kings the stand at least ten times and always find something new. i am so glad that you are designer of the week enjoy it.
I totally love the Ali Oop kit! I love how BRIGHT and bold it is! :)
I really like much of Mandy's designs but if I was to choose one I think my favorite is "Just around the bend". Very Pretty!
My fav is Bohemian Blessings!
I love Wonderful You!! The colors are amazing! I like the embellishments also. You can use in different kind of photos and styles.
I would love to win one of the prize! Thank you for this opportunity!

Love your kits! Hard to choose just one! Since it's Valentines, I'll go with wonderful you! thank you so much!
My favorite is the Modern Joy kit. I love the color combinations and wordart that's in it.

CONGRATS on being Designer of the Week!
Chromatic Symphony is so cute and I'd be able to use it for so much!
The Cheyenne is so pretty!
I love her boyish charm papers. :)
Peace of Mind is on my wish list!
Love the colors in Bohemian Blessings!!
I'm an art teacher, so I love your Funky Day Hodgepodge!!
WORD ART TOTALLY MAKES A SCRAP PAGE COMPLETE...need to get some of your fabulous word art to add to my scrapbooks.
Love The Seasons of Life, especially winter and spring! I couldn't pick just one!
Congrats! Wow they are all beautiful, but if I have to pick one that I like the most, it would be Wonderful You :)
My fav is Bohemian Blessings - fitted right in my beach holiday theme album - the funky purples and oranges were a good change from blue! I've had MyMemories for just a week and have 5 of your packs so I think that says it all :) And now there's a sale on - yay! Ang
I LOVE Country Girl!
Funky Day all the way!!
I have "Autumn Mist" on my wish list. Mainly because I love the colors and just love sunflowers...
I think that my new favorite is Spunky Sweet. Such a fun shop!
Cheyenne Hodgepodge - love saying it too!!
