What would Swirlydoos be without our wonderful subscribers?!? It's a pleasure
getting to know these ladies on the forums and from the stories they tell
through their layouts. Yes,we are an amazing community, but most of all, we're a
family! We appreciate each and every member and they deserved to be spotlighted.
With that being said, our featured member for November is.....

Here is a bit about our wonderful Manda:
Hi!
My name is Amanda Kurtz, but I really go by Manda. I have been scrapping now for
about 10 years, I started when my oldest son, then a sweet baby boy, was 1. At
first, it was a way for me to simply remember all the cute little things he did
that I knew I would forget as he got older, well, 2 more kids and 10 years later
I am knee-deep in scrap pages! It has definitely helped to define who I am, not
just what I do.
I
would say that my style is sort of messy-pretty-altered-grunge. I love paints,
inks, mediums and mists of all kinds. Some say I have a misting problem. I say,
everything is better with mist! I am always experimenting with color and style,
I love to take inspiration from nature and music, movies and art. I try to not
do the same thing twice as I get bored quite easily.
I
am so honored to be the featured member for November here at Swirlydoos! I never
really had a honed-in sense of what my artistic outlet was until I joined this
amazing club. From the beginning, I was welcomed with open arms and minds and I
have found a great home. I am always learning and growing with the support of my
fellow Swirly Savages. There is often something new to try (and buy) and I love
the sharing of ideas and techniques that makes Swirlydoos such an awesome club.
Manda has always caught my eye with her misting ability. It's because of her I actually tried it. Now, I love it!!
Here are a few projects of Manda's that I found in our gallery that I absolutely love!!

Please come back and visit every first Sunday of the month to
see who our next featured member will be.
