Meet the Scrapbookaholic By Abby's Design Team

Hello my dear followers and friends!! I am sooooo happy to announce to you my NEW DESIGN TEAM!!! This choosing a DT is the hardest thing ever!!! I will have some guest designers that I will announce later on (still waiting on some emails). In the meantime... meet the team!! In alpha order!!!!


Alina 
I am a mother of 4 wonderful kids, Angelina (11), Angel (10), Ahnais (4) and Ava (7 months). I live just outside of Chicago in The Town of Cicero and I found scrapbooking in March of 2008. I learned all that I could quickly and never looked back. I love to learn new tricks and to try them out. Distressing happens to be one of my favorites right now. I am also a paper lover and I can't live without my Cricut. I am a proud member of the Cricut Circle since Feb. 2011 and I hope to be able to continue being a member. I currently have a seasonal job so I normally have winters off but summers are super busy for me especially this year since I will be a full time employee, full time student and still full time mommy.

  •  I have 2 very young kiddos and live in CO.  I'm a housewife and although my kids keep my crazy busy I love finding time for creativity each day.  A few of my favorite things include, penguins, purple, the show the X-files, and playing video games.

  • Ashley 
  •  www.myscrappinpalace.blogspot.com
  • I have been crafting for a long time but more in the past year and a half. I got my Cricut November 2009 and I have not stopped crafting since. I love to make Cards and Layouts. I do not own a craft room, so my craft area is the dining room. I live at home with my fiance, my puppy Matilda and my sister is currently staying with us. We are getting Married this October in Portland, Oregon. I was born in Austin, Texas but raised in Oregon. My grandma is the culprit for my craftiness, She always bought my stuff to do crafts. Just recently I got her into it and she has been making cards with her Big Shot and Stampin Up Products. I love when I can inspire people to be crafty themselves

  • Celeste B
  • www.ccscards.blogspot.com
  • My name is Celeste B. (C.C.'s Cards and Crafts).  I am a STAHM and think it's one of the hardest jobs I've ever had (but the most worthwhile).  I have two beautiful little ones; they often craft with me, which means fuzzy stamped images or phrases and lots of 'personalization' to each card they 'help' with.  I also have a wonderful husband that is sweet enough to not to complain when I give all my cards to family for them to give away.  I've been making cards for a few years and am really getting in to re-purposing items.

I started scrapbooking a few years ago as a way to pass the time but I really enjoyed it and it took off from there!! I got my first cricut a couple of years ago and now I am hooked! I love making cards, altered items, etc. and I am so happy that I am going to be able to share that with all of you!!

Congratulations, ladies! I know you'll all do a wonderful job and I'm looking forward to seeing all the marvelous projects you'll be creating. I do have one question for Abby though. Your blog as well as The Craft Hot Spot says that your design team call doesn't close until March 31st. How can that be if you have already selected the team? The 31st is still 3 weeks away and I didn't find a retraction posted on your blog... just sayin'!

Hi, Abby! Thanks for visiting my blog and for responding to my question about your DT application deadline. I asked because The Craft Hot Spot just sent out their weekly newsletter and your DT call is still listed on it with the end date of 3/31. No big deal, really, I just thought you should know that it's still being advertised that way. I wish you and your team every success and I'll watch for your next call.

Thanks,
Anniebee
