Let's meet the New Scrapadabadoo Design Team Members

Lots going on in our little corner of the world! If you follow us on Facebook you have heard that we now have a fabulous new Design Team...and I must say we scored the cream of the crop. We could not be happier with the submissions we received and we had a difficult time deciding on a core group. Several of the other entries are so wonderful  that  we want to find a way to  use all the talent that came our way...so keep watching for projects from them too.
Most of you know and love many of our DT members and you have seen some of the projects they have posted...and we know you will love the new gals to...
We'd like to introduce you to the new Scrapadabadoo Design Team;

I am mom to my son Steven

I used to enjoy quilting and knitting until I discovered paper crafting about 2 years ago.

Since then that has been the focus of my crafting. My style would be described as vintage with a side of shabby chic.

Construction is my passion and more often I will reach for metal embellishments before any flowers.

Paper crafting takes most all of my free time and sleep is impossible when I have an idea pop into my head.

Heather Bickhoff

I am a retired Teacher Aid

I am married and mother to two adult sons.

My addiction to paper crafting started with card making in the early 90's and branched out to scrapbooking in 2000 when I began to journal  and scrap my family history branching out to all areas of crafting.

I find crafting and creating to be very relaxing and therapeutic . Getting lost in a project give me great pleasure and it's a wonderful way to relieve stress.

I have been crafting most of my life and i must say I never met a craft I didn't like.
I enjoy papers and cardstock, fabric, embroidery, needle lace, and beads.
I also love Gilders Paste and gilding flakes. I am the self proclaimed "Gilding Queen".
Lately I have been drawn to stickpins, flowers and lace. I would describe my style as "shabby chic".

I've been scrapbooking since 2005 and consider myself an innovative artist with the ability to visualize and use products beyond their conventional use. My passion is mini albums but I love all aspects of crafting fro paper to mixed media. I love to teach and inspire others to think outside the scrapbook

I am married to my husband Rick for 33 years. I have a daughter Stefanie and 2 beautiful grandsons, Maddox 8 and Cash who is quickly approaching the "terrible twos". And last but not least is my 13 year old Daschund , Tyson.

I work full time in accounting for the citrus industry and long for my creative corner after a full day of spreadsheets.
I began scrapbooking in 2008 after returning from a family vacation to the Grand Canyon with hundreds of photos. I vowed they would not wind up in a box.
Most days you can find me in my happy scrappy corner letting my creativity flow or snooping thru YouTube UStream or blogs searching for inspiration.
