About me.....

I am 43 years old and have been with my husband for 14 years. When I met him, he had 4 children full-time, who were 5, 7, 9 and 21 at the time, which was quite a challenge for me having no kids myself.

I work full-time as an administrative assistant for a plastic bag manufacturer.

I discovered scrapbooking in December 2005, which combined perfectly two of my passions, photography and creative art. I have never stopped since....

My scrapbook style:
Although I have a preferance for clean & classic lines, sometimes I can say that my pages are a bit more on the Eclectic side. I have no talent for Freestyle (yet), although I do admire the work of a few freestylers.

My subjects:
All my family members (including my 2 cats) and our trips (we like to ride on the motorcycle a lot).

My favorite products:
Rub-ons & chipboards

My favorite manufacturers:
American Crafts, Scenic Route, Basic Grey, Maya Road, Fancy Pants

My biggest handicap:
TIME! Being a full-time worker, I always feel I do not have enough time to devote myself to my passion, scrapbooking!

My scrapbooking trademark:
I don't think I have one yet, I follow my inspiration and I am slowly finding my comfort zones, however I'm pretty sure you will see my 2 favorite products on all my pages...

Words that describe me:
Creative, loyal and passionate, always there to help others.

Something I want to improve in 2008:
I find that my compact camera had limited functions compared to my 35mm camera I owned before. Therefore, I just bought a Canon Rebel xti so I can perfectionate my art... with better photography. Now I just have to learn how to use it...lol.
