Taru Jehkonen
"Hi everyone! My name is Taru Jehkonen! 
I´m so excited to be Guest DT on your lovely challenge on August. 

I live in Rauma, Finland with my sons Sami and Niko. I´m retired about 12 years now. I love cats. I have a four sweet cats  and they ventured on my scrapbook page often. 

I saw how my friend made cards on spring 2007.  Inspirited by her  and I began make my own cards with 3D images. But then I found stamps and it was big love right away! Then I found scrapbooking, mixed media and art journal. I love take photos – I was always take a lot of photo on my life.  I love little bit crazy, funny and silly photos! 
On my works I really love bold colors, shapes, layers, stamps, stencil and dimensions. I love use different mediums, but I also love make like “clean and simple”! Just like what mood I have when I crafting.  

Please come and visit me on social media!

GDT Taru created the amazing layout below based on the 
August Tic Tac Toe Challenge
to inspire you...
Taru said this about her layout...
"Tic Tack challenge is my favorite challenge because it is so full of opportunities. My line is The Blue color – polaroid – hexagon shape on this month. I really love to made more dimensions on background paper, even it is pattern paper.
I really love playing with inks, paints, stamps, stencils, colors and splatters. Those all really put a more life on background paper. Usually I made a lot of layers with papers behind photo, but today I was inspired to made layers with plastic prints (sheeting). 
I love used flairs and text stickers."

Inspired by Taru's amazing layout and/or the challenge, we would love for you to play along with us!

Return tomorrow for more August Tic Tac Toe Stash Challenge inspiration!
Have an awesome day!
