| I live in Kemptville with my husband and our two little munchkins – Tyler and Katie. They are a source of inspiration to me, and I just wish I had 10 more hours a day to scrap all the moments with them. They are growing up way to quickly, and I want to remember all the little things. I started scrapbooking about 3 ½ years ago when Tina was just thinking of starting her business. Myself and two other friends were guinea pigs for Tina’s first ever class. She introduced me to this style of scrapping, and I guess the rest is history. I really enjoy the creative side of it. I can’t say that I do it to document family history, but more for the creative outlet. I love scrapping the little moments with my family - silly things the kids do or say or the emotions a certain picture evokes when I look back at it. I also enjoy how the industry is constantly changing. There is always some new product or technique to try. It keeps me interested, excited and always eager to get scrapping. |

I am Michelle Sturgeon, married for 15 years to my wonderful enabling husband, Mike! We have 2 cats named Lily and Emma. I have been stamping and scrapbooking since October, 2004 and became a Stampin' Up demonstrator in January, 2005. I would describe my style as linear, clustered, layered and embellished with a splash of patterned paper! I love creating hand crafted cards and usually mail out 20 cards a month to different people for absolutely no reason other than to brighten their day! |

| Hi, my name is Pattie Clark and I am extremely excited to be on this fabulous team of ladies! I started scrapbooking just over 3 years ago, and am so fortunate to have discovered this art and have been able to share my passion with others through teaching scrapbooking classes. A mother to FIVE wonderful children, scrapbooking has become not only my passion, but my outlet to refresh and regroup my four remaining brain cells after a rather hectic week! I am a law clerk by profession, but after the birth of our twin boys last year, and having a then-2-year-old daughter, my partner and I decided it was not worth the burden of paying childcare!! So in my infinite wisdom, I decided to start providing childcare in addition to my own! If nothing else over and above the blessing I have to be able to work at home and watch over my own children, to help other children learn...it helps to pay for my scrapbooking goodies ;-) I cherish the numerous resources dedicated to helping me continuously learn in this industry, and am always looking to try new and exciting things! |
| My name is Jill Sarginson and I have recently become addicted to scrapbooking! It started in January 2008 when my daughter, Abigail, was approaching 2 years old. I realized that after a two year break from the hobby, I needed to resume scrapbooking in order to document her life as she grows up - from the big things to the small, everyday moments. I then panicked as I realized I had almost 2 years to catch up on. Since those frantic first two months of scrapping almost every waking minute, I have found my groove and happily snap pictures and scrap when I have time. And these days, my daughter isn't the only subject of my pages!! I am married to my wonderful husband, Dean, who is one of my biggest enablers! We just celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary; he is extremely supportive, even shops for me and built me my very own scrapbook room. I live in Kanata, work in IM/IT (which is why I need a creative outlet!). I am also certified as a personal trainer and a nutritional specialist. Besides spending time with my family, I spend a lot of my spare time playing soccer and of course, scrapbooking. I am very excited to be on Tina's design team, I cannot wait to see what's in store. I look forward to meeting lots of new people and creating new projects! |

| My name is Amy Morris, I have truly been blessed with a loving husband and stepdaughter! I am a Child and Youth Pastor as well as Nursery School teacher. These things give me lots of opportunity for great pictures and inspiration!! My wonderful husband indulges my scrap booking addiction! Thank goodness, I couldn’t imagine not scrap booking. I started scrap booking 8 years ago when I was introduced to scrap booking and began recording and preserving the memories of my wedding and started my first scrapbook, and fell in love! My style and skill is varied, and has progressed over the years. I love to try new products and always strive to new levels and to try new things. I love keeping up to date on new trends and love the challenges of trying to incorporate new things in new ways and challenge myself to be creative and leave my mark on every page and project I do!! I love getting inspiration from my friends, family and nature and like to give inspiration and ideas to others with the creative layouts and mini albums I create. Cards, page layouts, mirrors, collages for the walls, canvases and mini albums are all things I like to experiment with and create. There isn’t a scrap booking project I won’t take on, I am always up for the adventure! Happy Scrap booking! |

| Well I guess I will start with a little about myself. I am 29 years old and have been married to my husband Eric for 9 years now and we have four children together. Our boys are Lucas (8), Reuben (7) and are girls are Peyton(5) & Kaylin (3). My children keep me quite busy along with giving me many inspirations to scrapbook. We live on a farm which also keeps me/us busy. I do not milk the cows but the kids and I have about 19 goats to care for. I grew up outside Winchester and currently live about 3 km from my original homestead. I grew up knowing that I had one full brother, Andy (younger) along with two half brothers, Tom & Bill and two half sisters, Patty & Connie who are all older than myself. Just recently (May) Andy & I were told that we have another older brother out there. My parents gave him up for adoption. In July we reunited with Jason (+wife & kids) and the whole situation has been a great and life changing experience for all who are involved. On the scrap booking side I just started to get into this form of expression about two years ago. It started with a “Creative Memories” party then “Stamp’n Up!” and I was then quite eager to take some classes to learn new techniques and socialize with other scrap bookers. One reason I would like to be on the design team is that I love getting/seeing new products to try and finally use on a scrapbook page or card. Trying new products/tools sometimes makes the page/project go faster or by just looking at (for instance paper)it might give me the inspiration needed for that one photo you wanted to show case or didn’t know what to do with. I work better under pressure for me deadlines are probably a good thing. The best time for me to scrap is at night after my kids have gone to bed or I will tend to go out to be inspired by other scrappers. Asking my husband if this or that looks right doesn’t seem to help, but asking another scrapper what I should do on the page helps me to step outside the box and try something different. Looking at their projects or pages gives me motivation to try it as well or to even take a small piece of it and use it to my style of page. I hope this gives you a little view of myself . |
