Good morning blogging friends! I have some exciting news to share with you today!! Our Want2Scrap™ family is growing and we have a new addition to our Design Team!! I hope you will help me in giving a Warm Welcome to Linda Duke!! I had the pleasure of meeting Linda about four years ago at the Spellbinders Design Team Retreat and not only is she a Fabulous Designer and Amazingly Talented but she is such a Wonderful person and I am so Happy to call her my friend and I am honored to be working with her and have her join the Want2Scrap™ Design Team. Welcome Linda!!


Here is a little bit more about Linda~

Hello, I’m Linda Duke, I live in California’s Central San Joaquin Valley, and I’m a crafter from way back… I have dabbled in most all crafty things you can think of, Tole painting, Ceramics Instructor, Beading, Knitting/Crocheting just to name a few, and Art was my Major while in Collage. About 20 years ago, I discovered and fell in love with rubber-stamping, while attending a Stampin’ Up! party with a friend. Like most, I became a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, then discovered Splitcoast Stampers website. I was truly inspired by the many talented ladies, and learned from their techniques to push myself to learn everything I could about rubber-stamping. I’ve been blessed to be a Designer for many different companies past and current. I recently retired from my day job, and stamp almost everyday all day long (life is good). I’m excited to be here with Want2Scrap™, and work along side their very talented Design Team.

To see some of Linda's Beautiful design work please visit here blog Linda's Works of the Heart and be sure to leave her a little love while you are there.

Thank you so much for stopping by today and don't forget to come back tomorrow for the first day of our Blog Hop with Spellbinders™ Paper Arts and JustRite Stampers--Its going to be Fabulous!!

Hugs,

Warm Welcome to Elise Durenberger!!!

One of our newest Design Team members extraordinaire.  This lovely lady is so very talented and we are very pleased to welcome her to our team! 

WELCOME ELISE!!!!

Elise is not only talented but her personality is HIlarious to boot! I know you will enjoy seeing her future posts and sharing her take on all things creative! 
So let’s get to know Elise a little better!

Elise has been avidly paper crafting for the past decade.  With a lifetime of creative pursuits fueling her passion, her foundation is in Fine Art.  She earned a degree in Art Studio from the University of California, Davis, and continues to paint and draw in addition to paper craft.  Completely transformed by the Blog-World, Elise's joy has been increased exponentially by participating in paper craft challenges, publication calls, design team cooperation, and friendships. All cemented from the common experience of the "Blog." 
When she isn't playing with all things paper, ink and embellishments, she's joyfully married to the love of her life. Elise is always inspired and smitten by her two babies {okay, they are 9 & 13 years young - but to a mother: ALWAYS babies!} as well as her four-legged babies - horses, dogs, cat & one truly ancient cow!   Living the "ranch life" in Sonoma County, California (the culmination of her life's dream) feels pretty darn good.  Mix in paper and some bling - Life is EXCELLENT!
"I'm so honored to have the opportunity to design with products from Want2Scrap!   The name of the company says it all, but as I was discussing with a friend recently, the term "scrap" means SO much more than it used to.  I'm looking forward to adding Want2Scrap's unique and oh so creatively inspirational products into every area of my crafting!  From the bejeweled self adhesive line of pearls and rhinestones to the fantastic chipboard, acrylic albums, and die-cuts, I'm going to be ONE busy crafty chick. Fortunately, there's not much in my life that wouldn't benefit from a lil' more BLING. So I say. . .  BLING IT ONNNNN!  Yee HAW!"
Here are a few samples of Elise’s beautiful projects!! 
 


You can also find Elise at her blog Mama Cow Creations.  Stop by and say “Hi” if you have a chance.
Thank you so much Elise for joining our team and we can’t wait to see your projects using Want2Scrap products!!!

HEATHER JENSEN

of Simply Handmade by Heather

Here is a little bit about Heather:

 

I am a wife and mother who finds time to create when ever possible. I love the shabby chic/vintage style for home and crafting. I have been paper crafting for about 4 years now.

So let’s welcome Heather!!

 

 

Hello everyone. I’m heather an I’m happy to share with you my very first card as a new Design Team member. 

I needed one last Christmas card and the wonderful Swirls white pearls from the store HERE worked perfectly to dress it up. 

I cut it to suit my card.  I just needed a piece  for the corner to dress it up a little. 

 

 

 

 

Can you believe Christmas has come and gone already?  I swear it goes by faster and faster every year.  I always say that I am going to get myself ahead every year. . . maybe next year. 

 

I look forward to working with all the lovely ladies here at Want 2 Scrap.  Hope you all have a Happy New Year.  Be safe!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by
