I would like to introduce you to all of the newest DT members. I know it is a bit late, it has been a crazy couple of weeks with us all being sick around my house. But hey, sometimes you have to wait for good things, right? I am thrilled for you all to get to know the newest team members. We have got another wonderful group of talented ladies this time! I am always amazed at the talent!
Esti ErasmusI am 36 years young and in love with life! I’m married to my high school sweetheart and have an amazing 5 year old little girl. We live in Cape Town (sunny South Africa) and I am a work-from-home mom and business owner (unfortunately not scrapbookingJ). I am truly blessed in every possible way!
I have been a paper / stamp / glue / sticker / stationary fanatic since I can remember! I bought my first stamp in 1986 (a funky frog design - my daughter now stamps her projects with it!) and when I discovered Scrapbooking 11 years ago I found a place to live every dream I ever imagined – it was love at first sight (or shall I say first purchase. My scrapbook style is inspired by the product I work with and I LOVE playing around with stamps, sketches, different techniques and new toys. Browsing all the sites and blog-hopping is a favorite past-time for inspiration and to learn new techniques and ideas and meet scrap-buddies all over the world.
Scrapbooking plays a vital part in my life, it is my stress-release, relax-treatment and most importantly a legacy to my daughter…………..hope she has a BIG house to store all the albums one day.
Hi My name is Georgina Hefferman and I live in London, England. I'm very excited to be a part of this Design Team. I love to scrapbook and I've recently discovered card making too - I have a little bit of an obession when it comes to "collecting" stamps and so I'm looking forward to getting more use of them on my scrapbook pages as well as on my cards. 10 Random facts: My favourite colour is purple, I love cats, I think butterflies are pretty, my favourite show of all time is Little House on The Prarie, I work in the insurance industry, I teach line dancing, I collect a certain type of ceramic mice, I adore making cakes of all kinds, I'm learning to knit and I enjoy growing vegetables in my square foot garden! You can find out more about me and my crafts here:

I am Teresita, 33 years old, I have lived abroad for some years and then
I came back to the north of Italy in late 2009. i am Administrative Assistant during the day,
but then my creativity comes out!
I discovered Scrapbooking in 2008 in Brussels, and since then…I became scrap addicted!
Now I would spend more money in scrap stuff than in clothes!!
My style is I free, colourful, and even flashy sometimes.
I love making 12x12 layouts, but I am happy when I can make cards to offer, or little paintings to be hung.
My scraproom is a mess, but I could not work in a tidy corner. I need my Inspiring Chaos, let's say!
I often scrap myself, and since I do not have kids nor boyfriend at the moment!

I am a married mom of 4, three boys (Codie 16, Aidan 8, and Kieran 5) and one girl (Azelyn 3). I teach high school math and science. I live in Northern Ontario (near Sudbury).
I have been scrapbooking and stamping for 5 years now. I am a CTMH consultant but more as a hobbiest (it helps to pay for some of my supplies)
My blog is

My name is Vicky, 32 years old and I have been scrapping since 2003. Next to scrapbooking, I really love photography and travelling, so I always end up with a beautiful album about our travels. I’m married, but we don’t have kids. Instead, I have 6 pet rabbits, 5 of them live outside and one lives inside the house. His name is Speedy and I believe he’s a dog in a rabbitskin!
Ever since I’ve been in contact with scrapbooking, I’m very passionate about it. I used to work together with Kars, which is a craft wholesale company in the Netherlands and a couple of craft shops in Belgium. But I decided to start my own business with scrapbooking materials only. Scrapbooking is not so well known here in Belgium (well, at least not as in the States or the Netherlands) but I really do my best to share my passion with others. The shop is not my full-time occupation, I’m a teacher of English, history and geography in secondary school.
I have a (Dutch) blog, it’s http://creanijn.blogspot.com ( I could do English posts as well!) There you can find most of my work. I’m a simple scrapbooker, I don’t tend to use a lot of embellishments and so, because my pictures are the main focus of my pages. I really try to use a lot of pictures on my layouts ever time. Ever since I've discovered your blog, I try to put at least one stamp on my layouts. I have so many stamps, and so I challenged myself to use them more often! I don't participate a lot on the blog lately, but I try to visit it regularly to get some inspiration.
Hi everyone! I have been married to my best friend, Mark for 22 years and I am a SAHM with 4 children & 6 cats. I am originally from Maryland, but have been in Pennsylvania for the last 15 years. I've always liked creating things, even as a child. I remember macrame plant hangers, pot holders(you know the ones made from loops of fabric), latch hook pillows, plastic canvas tissue boxes and so much more.
I attended a Creative Memories party MANY moons ago and have been scrapbooking and card making ever since. I've been a Close to my Heart Independent Consultant for over 4 years now and it is a joy to share my love of papercrafting with others! I started blogging in 2009 and one of my favorite parts of the day is when I can settle in with my laptop and coffee and "visit" my papercrafting friends to gain inspiration and share some love. I would describe my scrapbooking style as clean and simple. My other hobbies include reading (anything I can get my hands on), knitting and most recently, crocheting.
I am thrilled to be joining this *uber* talented DT, and I look forward to sharing my work with all of you :)
