Meet New Shabby Girl Danielle Greenwood!

I am pleased to introduce you all to our next new Shabby Girl Designer in the Tea Room ...


... Danielle Greenwood - Au Claire De La Lune

My name is Danielle, I'm a stay at home mom by day and a crafter by night. I have a 3 year old Princess and a 2 year old Mommy's Boy. When my kids are sleeping, I like to get my craft on! I love all sorts of different crafts and arts, but right now paper crafting, specifically card making, holds my heart.

My signature style is layered vintage and shabby chic, but I also do love so many styles and techniques.

I just started crafty blogging this past November, and love participating in challenges and being a part of this great community!

Welcome, Danielle, to the Shabby Girls Design Team!  We're so excited to be inspired by you :)
