June Main Cake Kit - Guest Designer Reveal

Today I am here to share with you our next Guest Designer. The lovely Chantal Vandenberg!! Chantal has recently had layouts published on the front covers of popular Australian mags. She has the most unique ability to create awesome funky layouts with sometimes as little as just patterned papers and a few embellishments. We are so excited to be sharing Chantal's layouts over the coming few weeks using our Main Cake Kit from June (which is now sold out).

My name is Chantal Vandenberg and I live in Adelaide, South Australia with my awesome husband and our two adorable little girls, Lucy and Heidi.   I began scrapbooking five years ago and I absolutely love it because it not only records memories, but it also helps "bring them to life" through creativity - which is what I set out to achieve with each layout I create.  

Over the five years since I began scrapbooking, I have always had a particular style (which was never intentional - I just couldn't help myself!).  I would describe my style as bright, bold, fun and funky!  I love colour, I use as many (or as little!) photos as it takes to capture the certain memory I want to convey, I have always journaled on my work, I love finding new and exciting ways to use products and I often try to incorporate my love of art (drawing, cartooning and painting) and graphic design into my creations too… basically anything that helps convey memory of the layout is great to me!

So during this time I've been very fortunate and grateful to have been published numerous times in (and on the cover of… wow!) magazines nationally and internationally.  I am currently on the following design teams; 2Crafty chipboard, Megs Garden and Australian Scrapbooking Ideas Magazine, plus I've previously had the opportunity to be some other amazing teams as well. :)  

I am very flattered and excited to be asked by Raquel to guest design for APOCD this month!  Thank you so much Raquel and I hope you love what I create! :)

Cheers,

Chantal Vandenberg
