And our lovely featured designer for October...! 
Hello everyone! I'm Jen Mitchell and I live in Bridgewater, Massachusetts. I've been making cards for many years and I find the process of creating a card from nothing but some paper, ink and a vague idea to be a wonderful way to end a long day at work. I especially love using a color challenge as a way to spark my creative mojo so when I was asked to join the ladies at Colour Me...! for the month of October I didn't hesitate to say yes! I am looking forward to spending the next month creating alongside this talented group.
