This week, we have a wonderful lady in The Cafe
joining us as
this week's Guest Designer....
"My name is Kendra Wietstock and I've been anxiously awaiting this week
as a guest designer at PDCC. I live in Northern Indiana with my
husband and two children. I currently work as a freelance designer for Our
Craft Lounge, Lizzie Anne Designs, i{heart}papers and Whimsy & Stars
Studios. In addition to my design duties for Our Craft Lounge, I am
also the Customer Service Representative and Design Team Coordinator which
also includes teaching classes and making store samples for retail
locations. Although I spend most of my time these days stamping, when
I do find some spare time in my schedule, I spend it on my first "crafting
love" ~ scrapbooking." 
We sound like a broken record lately, but in a good way!We have another brand, new sponsor with us! 
and what a terrific prize package for ourCup of the Week....
