Guest DT Invite honoree from #2/February brags= Jenn B
blog link = https://stampinangeljenn.blogspot.com/2025/04/you-bake-world-better-place.html
profile = My name is Jenn and I've been paper crafting for about 25 years now. I love stamping, ink blending, fussy cutting, and ink smooshing. I love spending time in my craft room, it's like therapy to me. I have the best hubby ever, 2 grown kids, and 4 absolutely adorable grandchildren who I get to spend a lot of time with! My favorite crafting supplies are inks, die cuts, and stamps. I'm also a really good cook and when I'm not in the craft room, I'm usually in my kitchen so this card really encompasses my life! ;)
Jenn's choice for the AKDG theme is this cute little chef baking in his kitchen:
Spectacular kitchen/dining-related artistic projects!!!

-- DT member Meena, owner/DT Becca S
=============================================
JUST ADDED on April 18th from owner/DT Becca S = I spent a few minutes in Microsoft Designer to create some Ai-generated "table runners on dining table" images. Please feel free (for personal use) to take 1 or more of these to use for FQHSKCB #4 or for future challenges.
Also if used during the last few days of April, the green and orange hearts of the table runners can be used for the Heart's Quest Challenge Blog #72 theme until April 27. Anything goes with green and/or orange heart(s).

Super cool!!! These have a bit of Nordic look to them, I think. That wasn't part of the description I typed but it's wonderful to see what the possibilities can be!
Enjoy!
