And how exciting?......We have a brand new teacher too! Have a read through Laura's bio. We are so pumped to have a scrapbooking teacher again! And one who has been published numerous times (check out page 29 of Creative Scrapbooker's Fall 2016 issue....yep. Laura's fall layout called 'My Happy Place' is there!)
Bio & Note from Laura
Hi everyone! I am really excited to begin teaching at the Paper Pickle! I am looking forward to getting to know you and hope to see you soon!
I thought you may like to know a little bit about me....I am Laura. I am a stay at home mom to 2 fantastic and fun loving young men – Cody is 15 and Ty is 14.
I am happily married for 16 years to my best friend and awesome husband, Jon. He is hardworking, ambitious, determined and loving...I am creative, enthusiastic, emotional and passionate – together we make a great team! We own our own transport truck and he is a long haul driver so during the week, It is me and our boys and my scrappy stuff!!! I started scrapping years ago when my sister took me to a Creative Memories beginner class and I although I really enjoyed it, I just wasn't a Creative Memories scrapper and soon struck out on my own. I found a few very helpful and friendly sites on the web and have been trying new things and learning ever since. I really enjoy trying new things and creating projects! I create mostly 12x12 layouts but I do really enjoy creating off the page projects, cards and canvases...anything were I can ink and paint and play and get my hands messy!
With my husband on the road, and two boys to keep me busy, I don't have a lot of time to myself to scrap so I make time! Every night after the kids go to bed I take out my supplies and try and do something scrapbooking oriented every day to give me some 'me' time. My family is the focus of my life, my inspiration, and my motivation to scrapbook.
I have had the honor to be published many times in Creative Scrapbooker as well as many on line e-zines. I have also had the opportunity to work on a couple of manufacturers design teams as well as a couple of guest spots most recently for Petaloo and ScrapFX and a few kit clubs!!!
