Hello! My name is Rachel. I am an elementary teacher who taught for 10 years, but am now blessed to be a stay-at-home Mom. I have been married for almost 9 years to my wonderful husband and we are the proud parents to an amazing little boy. We live in NW Ohio. I have always been a recorder of memories in some form, from writing in diaries when I was little, to writing everyday happenings in a calendar when I got older and always taking millions of pictures along the way. I started scrapping faithfully when my husband and I started dating. Then, when my son was born, it became a creative outlet for me, not to mention a full blown addiction! My favorite thing about scrapping is reliving the memory while I work on each layout. I love to use all the new products and try all the new techniques, but seem to always return to bright colors and symmetry. Besides scrapping, some of my interests are sports (Go Irish, Steelers & Mets!), going to the movies, reading, photography, and just being with my family. I have been fortunate to have been published in Scrapbook Trends and I am really thrilled to be part of The Scrapbook Site Design Team. I hope that I can provide some inspiration to others.
Hi. My name is Michelle. I started scrapping almost 3 years ago. The plan was that it wasn't going to take over our lives; one or two scrapbooks would be enough and it was something for me to do when my husband was working evening shift. Wow, has that changed. I have 5 completed scrapbooks and eight that I am working on. Scrapping is my passion and my bliss. A day does not go by where I don't think about Scrapbooking. My main subjects are my two beautiful boys- Sean and Corey and their exploits. I live in Warrnambool, Australia. It is a rural city located on the coast approximately 3 hours drive south west of Melbourne . I have lived here most of my life. I have been married to Reg for the past 12 years. As well as Scrapbooking and raising a family, I work 20 hours per week as a respiratory nurse at the local hospital. I hope you enjoy my layouts as much as I enjoy creating them for my family.
Hi, My name is Kristi. I live in northern Indiana with my husband and two wonderful boys, who are 16 and almost. We also have a cocktail, a bunny, and a tank of fish. I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom, as well as a homeschool Kindergarten gym teacher at the local YMCA. I have homeschooled both boys since the beginning and it has become part of our lifestyle. I also stay quite busy with church activities; teaching the 1st & 2nd grade Sunday School class, in addition to being the secretary for the AWANA club. I have been scrapping since January 2002 and I love every minute of it. I continue to learn new things about this wonderful hobby all of the time! I scrap mostly in 12x12, generally working on layouts for my family chronological albums. I try to take time to scrap at least a little bit every day. Some days I may only pick out the next photos I am going to be working with, while other days you'll find me straightening up the aftermath of my last layout. I tend to scrap in a variety of colors, but blues and greens seem to be the most prominent colors you will find in my layouts. I enjoy using ribbons, metals, and buttons, and my favorite technique is paper layering. I am honored to be a member of The Scrapbook Site Design Team, and I also design for Sarah Heidt Photocraft and Kellers Creations. I am looking forward to another great year here at The Scrapbook Site.
Hello! My name is Tricia. I am married to an amazing husband, and I am the mother of two busy, handsome boys. Our boys are very active in many different activities, so I have tons of pictures that I scrap. We have three dogs and a turtle, so we have a house full of love. We live 30 minutes West of Omaha. I am an English teacher, and I really enjoy the experiences I have had because of teaching. I also work part time for the local scrapbook store teaching a variety of classes. I began scrapping for over five years, and I have enjoyed taking all of our precious memories and adding an artistic flair to them. I love working on yearly events in our lives (sports, events, funny moments, etc.), but I also work on heritage pages. I have been blessed with having an entire family that happens to be “picture” people. There are many cherished pictures of my ancestors, and I have scrapped these memories for my sons. Besides scrapbooking, I love to garden & watch Nebraska football games. GO BIG RED!!!! I am thrilled to be apart of The Scrapbook Site’s design team. I love being inspired by others, and I hope to be an inspiration.
Hi! My name is Patti and I live Pennsylvania. I've been married to my best friend for 11 years. We have four kids - two sets of twins! Boys who are almost 6 and a boy & girl who are two. I have my Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science and worked as a Project Manager in Information Technology. After the boys were born, I switched careers and now I have the awesome job of being a Stay-at-Home Mom. I've been scrapbooking for almost five years and have been fortunate to be published a few times. I enjoy scrapping with my friends at local crops and "Girls Night Out". My favorite thing about scrapping is getting my hands dirty. I'll try anything once but my current favorites are inking, painting, and working with patterned paper. I make all of my own cards and enjoy designing the Sketch Challenges for The Scrapbook Site. Since I went digital two years ago, I've been trying to take better pictures but with four little ones, they are mostly "action" shots! In addition to scrapbooking, I teach Group Exercise classes and I am a Certified Personal Trainer. I love to read non-fiction and biographies. In my "spare" time, I've been known to dust! I love being a part of The Scrapbook Site and I hope you are inspired by my work.

My name is Patty and I live in NC with my husband. We've been married 15 years and have four children, ages 5, 8, 11, and 13. Though a teacher by profession, it has worked out for me to be a stay at home mom once again, and I am able to help out with the two businesses that my husband and I own. In addition to my scrapbooking passion, I enjoy reading and decorating and am involved in Women's Bible Study. My kids are my scrapping inspiration as I work on their albums as well as our family album. Through my layouts, I hope to pass on not only the wonderful memories we make but also the depth of who we are. I want them to have a tangible record of our lives- the love, laughter, tears, and faith that make us a family. A few years ago I switched from working chronologically and now scrap whatever pictures hit me at the moment (believe me, I have thousands from which to choose!) I'm honored to have several layouts published by Ivy Cottage Creations, Scrapbook Trends, and Memory Makers. Being a part of The Scrapbook Site is very exciting for me. I'm thrilled to be able to share my pages with you and hope that you find inspiration for these great kits.
