This was Paige's first time guest designing for us and she did an awesome job! We have all come to love Paige on the PersonalScrapper.com message board. She can always make us laugh! I have also had the privilege to scrap with Paige in her awesome scrap space! We have a lot of fun scrapping together and it has taught me that i can scrap during the day (as long as Ezra has a friend (or friends) to play with!
Here are her fabulous layouts followed by a bio from her:
Greetings! A very excited and honored Paige here!A few weeks ago, Erica asked me if I would like to guest designer for Personal Scrapper's April kit. Like I would turn down THAT gig, right? :) I graciously said, "Heck YES I would love to be April's Guest
Designer!". Play with paper and goodies? Share my creations with
the friendly gang at PersonalScrapper.com?
Shoot, I'm game!
What she didn't tell me was that I would have to tell a little something about myself.
What?
Oh. Dang. Stuff like...
I eat turkey slices for breakfast?
Or...
I actually enjoy Phineas and Ferb or Scooby Doo more than my children?
Or...
I love to cook and considered going to school for it then decided 40k was too much money and I will just read some cookbooks instead and guinea-pig my family and friends?
Or...
I change clothes like 3 times a day?
Or...
I have a hang up about my dish cloths and my dish towels?
Or...
I think my house is haunted?
Or...
I only buy my coffee online?
Or...
I play Dungeons and Dragons with my nephews and my Eladrin name is The Wizard Fey-Reyna?
(Perhaps that might have been too much...)
I won't bore you with those details, but what I can tell you is that I have been scrapbooking for about 14 years. And? I love it. I just truly enjoy the hobby. Being able to play with such colors and textures and patterns... It is like candy, I tell you. Candy. I love the fact that I can transfer some of my own personality down onto
paper in a way that my family and I can enjoy. I wish I could put
something in here about getting published or winning some contest or something of the like, but I can't. :) I am just too lazy to jump
through all the hoops. I mean have you ever had to type up one of
those supply list things??? Lazy wins! I am so glad that with these kits I can just say something like " it's in the kit!".
I have also met some fantastic friends through scrapbooking. Bonus, right? While on a field trip with my daughter's pre-school last fall, I got to chatting with Carrie Postma. And it is because of her that I found the Personal Scrapper community. So you will have to take up any issues or complaints with her as it is her fault. Thanks Carrie! :) I am to this day so thankful you asked me about my camera and if I was a scrapbooker. I am also thankful for such a warm and welcoming group of people at Personal Scrapper. You all are fantastic and I cannot wait to see what everyone does with the April Kit!
Thanks so much, Erica, for this opportunity! It has been an absolute pleasure!
