Happy Wednesday to All!!!!

I also have some new commercial use releases and a chance to save up to 50% off new release orders at Polka Dot Plum. Wow! Are you ready? There’s going to be an eyeful.

Introducing My New Creative Team!!!

I am so excited and honored to introduce my new creative team! These gals create some of the most gorgeous layouts I have seen and I am tickled pink to have them on my team!!!

I asked each of the ladies to send a bit about themselves to share with you along with some layouts created with my new releases this week.

Angela – My name is Angela. I’m a wife, a sister, a business owner, a chef, and a mom just to name a few. I scrapbook to preserve the memories of my life journey. I have 2 wonderful boys who inspire me everyday and patient and understanding husband who supports my addiction as long as I cook him dinner every night. I couldn’t ask for a better life.

Beth – I’m a crazy mom of 2 monsters, wife to a rapscallion, living in the middle of nowhere with said monsters, rapscallion, 7 barkers & 11 moomoos..not to mention, I am addicted to Photoshop & Twitter. I got started out making siggies, and moved onto digiscrapping in 2009..I haven’t looked back since!!  Now I am on multiple CTs & I have 1 store & 1 store soon to open (SEE?!? Told you I am crazy!!)

Charlie – Hi I’m Charlie, I’m mum to two gorgeous little boys Alfie (23.09.08) and Jack (06.02.10) I’ve been with my partner for 5 years now, I first started making siggys just after Alfie was born he is pretty much my whole inspiration for everything, then last Christmas I got into making layouts, before all that I used to making battle graphics (omg ha-ha gringe!!) anyway pretty much everything I scrap about is of my two little monkeys so your being seeing their faces A LOT

Heide – I’m a creative junkie – love anything that lets me mix it up a bit is great and digi scrapping is the best!

Melissa – My name in is Melissa Van Tuinen.  I am wife and a mom of three (plus the dog and cat).  I work part time at a chiropractic office.  I have been scrapping digitally for two years and after I saw a friend of mine making a digital album, I was hooked!  I sold almost all of my traditional supplies and have no regrets!  I also enjoy camping, NASCAR, and spending time with my family.

Creative Team Inspiration!

Check out these amazing layouts created by my creative team! Be sure to leave them some love at the Polka Dot Plum Galleries, Digishop Talk Galleries and any other gallery you may see them at.
