Bienvenue to our newest designer, Alexandra Sirugue-Macleod

Join the Penny Black Team in extending a warm welcome to our newest designer, Alexandra Sirugue-Macleod. This Franco-American crafter grew up in Paris, studied in Kansas as well as at the Sorbonne, and met her husband while visiting Chicago one weekend. Together, they have two “big kids” attending McGill University in Montréal, as well as a nine year-old daughter, Gallianne Lily, at home.

Alexandra shares her passion for photography, traveling, scrapbooking, and card making with readers from all over the world at her blog, art scrap & more. She also hosts a blog called Scrap Rendez-Vous with Pascale who lives in Belgium, and Virginie who lives in the French Alps. A contributor to numerous design teams over the years, she’s been published in books and magazines in the UK, France, the States and Australia.

Alexandra says, “I am so excited to be part of this brilliant team and would like to thank Elizabeth and Shaida for their trust and kindness. I’m so excited I got to meet them live at the CHA and I am equally excited to get to meet the rest of YOU!”

We’ve posted some of Alexandra’s recent work below, and look forward to sharing more from her very soon.
