DT - Nicole Nowosad

Please welcome Nicole as a new Sketch Designer &
returning Layout Designer to our Team!

My name is Nicole Nowosad, from Winnipeg Manitoba. Scrapbooking has become not only a means of preserving the past for me, but also an outlet for my creativity to come out. Each page is a story in my life and the lives of my family and friends.

Scrapbooking each memory allows me to relive the special or including the ordinary moments in life. I am a married, working mom to two busy young boys, who are the main focus of my designs. I like to think that I have an eclectic style, and love to try new things and do unconventional things on my pages!

I am addicted to stitching on my pages and have been known to load on the embellishments!!

I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of the Creative Scrappers!

My name is Myia Manghum; I live in Las Vegas, Nevada! I am working mother to 3 very beautiful little girls! I have a set of identical twin girls (6) and an older daughter named Dana (8), they are the subject of most of my scrapping and the delights in my life!

I started scrapping when I was fourteen by cutting letters and qoutes from magazines and putting them with my pictures in a photo album. I have been a real scrapper for three years now and I am really addicted... I create 12x12 layouts first and foremost but I dabble in altered art and cards also!

I am a passionate and very dedicated scrapper! I love to be introduced to or find out about the newest and hottest products and trends.I consider my scrappy style to be Pretty Chic! I am addicted to all things bling and flowers! I am an embellisher, love layers and of course a ton of paper! I have a strong knack for detail!

I am so honored and consider myself truly blessed to be among such amazing talent here at Creative Scrappers.

Sketch #110

Good Morning Creative Scrappers,

We have a new sketch for you today! It's sketch 110 and the last for June's chance to win a prize from our current sponsor Snobby Walrus! Make sure your entries are posted before our deadline on July 3rd.

My name is Ilaria (better known as ILLY), I'm 26 years old and I live in Italy with my boyfriend Dario and my two cats Elle and Nina. I discovered scrapbooking in january 2008 and I fell in love... It was the perfect solution for my photo albums, I have been looking for it for years and I finally found it!
In march 2009 I discovered mixed media and it was instant love. I 've never been a "perfect artist", I always felt like an artist but I didn't believe in my "abilities". Now I believe. Now I know that I can be an artist. Because I love what I do and even if I'm not painting realistically, I do what I like and I'm happy. I discovered the pleasure of playing with art supplies and I love layers.
My scrapbooking pages have often "something mixed media": paint, found objects, ink stains, pages from old books or music sheets...

My scrapping style?? Oh well, I don't really have any particular style but I love cluttering and LOVE to put the photo as the "centre stage" of the layout.

DT - Trish Harwick

Please welcome Trish Harwick as a member of our Design Team

Hi! My name is Trish Harwick and home is wherever the Army sends us! Right now, that is Fort Bragg, NC. I am a FT Speech Pathologist, Mom of 4, proud Army Apache pilot wife and obsessed scrapper! My Mom swears I have "scrapped" since I could cut and paste, but the real obsession began after the birth of my first daughter.

When I am not scrapping (or working, or running after kids) I enjoy photography, baking yummy stuff in the kitchen, hanging out online or surfing the web and curling up with a good book!

I am thrilled to be a member of the team here at Creative Scrappers and I look forward to getting to inspire you all!

Please welcome for another term as our DT Member - Tanya Tahir

Hi my name is Tanya Tahir and I live in Perth, Western Australia. I am 34 and married with two beautiful boys. I have been scrapping for almost 5 years and I am very passionate about this amazing craft. Not a day goes by where I don't scrap or do something scrap-related!

I don't know that I have a particular scrapping style but I love white space, layering, 3 dimensional, and stitching and you will find most of these on each layout that I create. I love bold brights, but I also dabble in vintage and pretty soft colours, it all depends on my mood and inspiration.

I have a great love of photography and get immense joy from scrapping my favourite photos of my family and friends and telling the story behind them. My inspiration can come from many places - it could be anything from browsing online blogs and galleries, to flicking through scrapping magazines, to a piece of furniture or fabric I have spotted. I love to scrap all sizes including 12x12 and 8.5x11 and I also love making cards and off-the-page projects!

I am so excited to be a part of the team here at Creative Scrappers and I look forward to inspiring you!

DT - Suzanne Torr

Please welcome to our Design Team - Suzanne Torr

Hi there, my name is Suzanne Torr (aka fruitysuet online) and I live in a village in the middle of England – lots of greenery and hills but not too much sunshine! I have been married to Len for over twenty years and am mum to three children who are the focus of most of my layouts; Josh aged 15, Chiara aged 11 and Mia aged 9. We also have two beautiful British Blue Shorthair cats (or fluff balls as we affectionately call them), two rabbits, two guinea pigs and two goldfish.

I discovered scrapbooking in May 2004. I found a craft shop which offered evening classes and thought it would be fun to do something for myself on the one night of the week I wasn’t taxi’ing everyone else to their classes! The choice was patchwork or scrapbooking. I sat in on one of the scrapbooking classes and was totally hooked on the idea.

I adore playing with patterned paper (my totally favourite scrapbooking supply) and telling the story through pictures and words. Then when I discovered a local scrapbook supply store, nearby crops and online forums there was no going back – I love the social aspect of it all as well as the opportunity for creating. But, most of all, I love that playing with beautiful supplies and re-living fond memories is so therapeutic and helps me focus on the good things in life.

I’m thrilled to have been chosen to be a part of the Design Team here at Creative Scrappers - I find the sketches and work by the other Design Team members so inspirational.

DT - Susan Goetter

Please welcome to our Design Team - Susan Goetter!

Hi, my name is Susan. I’ve been married for 29 years to a wonderful man. Together we have 5 children and 16 grandchildren. I try to keep my camera ready, because with a family the size of our family, there’s always a photo opportunity!

I fell in love with scrapbooking in October 2000. I’ve recently remodeled my scrap room and I’ve finally organized all my scrappy supplies. Now, when I retreat to my scrap room I can put my daily job on the back burner, and lose track of time as I become absorbed in scrapping our memories. I almost always journal on my layouts, because I believe it’s up to me to tell the stories of our lives.

I’m excited about the upcoming months and creating with the wonderful sketches from Creative Scrappers!

Sketch #109

Good Morning Creative Scrappers,

It's a beautiful day for a Creative Reveal! Our team has a variety of layouts to share with you today. I hope you feel inspired to create a page or two!

Month’s before my wedding, my fiancée presented me a scrap book to archive our events to leading from our marriage. This unexpected event somehow captured my interest in scrapbooking and brought me into the exciting world of scrapbooking.
My name’s Yen Lin and here’s a short intro of me and my work. .. I live in Singapore and I work in the field of retail merchandising. I enjoy the spectrum of creating beautiful things, not just in work but also in my daily life. My ideas derived from inspiration with people around me or daily events that surrounds me. I must say that I do not have a distinctive style in scrapbooking, yet I try to stay open to new, different and creative ideas, technique and most of all, I am willing to learn from anyone.

I felt honored being invited as a guest designer for Creative Scrappers being an awesome scrapbook sketches portal. I am always inspired by the incredible DT works and cool sketches. Here’s what I have to my share with you on my Sketch 109, done with my favorite photos taken during my recent trip to Cambodia . …Enjoy viewing my work

Cheers,
Yen Lin
