liz tamanaha (elizzylee) - Designer
Things that make me happy. Freshly laundered sheets. Jack Johnson songs. Dymo labeler. Handwritten notes. The smell of freshly ground coffee. Jeans + flip flops. Maui. Being with my hubbie. Organizational gadgets. Anthropologie. Jazz. Vintage anything. My daughter's laugh.

amanda taylor (amanda1201) - creative consultant
I am a wife. I am a mom. I love windy days. I don't wear diamonds or perfume. I live for Daylight Savings Time. I love to scrapbook and to journal and seem to through phases as to how I do both. I love where I am in life and wouldn't trade any of it for the world.

shaui lee (shauilee)
Hi. I'm Shaui and I'm an addict. Scrapaddict that is!! Hehe!! I love going to bookstores, I love pasta and sushi, I don't like anything spicy. I love dancing, hip-hop music, anything crafty. I hope someday I can go to photography school. I'm obsessed with my hubby and my daughter fei-fei. I don't know how many times I kiss them in a day but it's A LOT!

emilie ahern (emilie_ahern)
Hello! My name is Emilie Ahern. I scrapbook because I I want to live forever, I want to tell my story and I want to know myself inside and out I have an unhealthy addiction to... Project Runway, creme brulee, the color orange, recording life stories, hanging with girlfriends, blogging, bad-for-me carbohydrates and cool Indie music.

cindee bae (cindee) - quick page designer for paislee press
My name is Cindee Bae. I'm a 27 year old living in Los Angeles, California. Although my "real job" is at an electrical engineering firm, my "real passion" is art. I find myself constantly craving to do something creative and I'm drawn to things that inspire. Other things that make me smile are the smell of clean laundry, itemized lists, photography, technology, and a cup of instant coffee in the morning.

som chea (som)
I'm a lover of all things artistic and inspiring. I enjoy too many things to fit into only one label. I worship Norah Jones! Although I'm a minimalist at heart, my style is pretty versatile, so I love experimenting with new designs and elements. When all else fails, turn to scrapbooking. Really, try it and see.

nichole eggen (n_eggen)
I live for my family. I have a wonderful, understanding husband who is very supportive of my addition! 3 of the most amazing kids, really, I am NOT just saying that! I also have a love affair with reading. I love seasonal coffee from starbucks and cold winter days (because those are the best days to sit in front of the fire with my beloved laptop, hehehe). I love the internet and meeting people from EVERYWHERE! I think it's just amazing the friends I've made all over the world. It's the next best thing to traveling. I love being inspired! The creative talent out there is just astounding to me. I just love to BE!

emilie gerard (amypunky)
I'm Emilie aka AmyPunky. I'm French and I'm a jurist. I love going to movies, dancing, watching TV, reading, scrapping, taking pics of my family, talking... My favorite color is green, I love tea, coffee and I'm a chocolate addict. I'm also addicted to shopping, shoes and handbags. My favorite movie is "Pretty Woman" and my favorite TV series is Friends (I miss them... sigh...). I've been a digital scrapper since 2005 and I can't live without it now!

peppermint granberg (peppermint)
I'm a 30-something mom to an 8 year old boy (Nicholas), a clinically diagnosed reality TV junkie and a lover of all things technological. I'm lighthearted - getting lighter by the year, which is the one thing I appreciate most about growing older. I love to laugh and do so as often as I can. I'm a champion of the underdog. I tell it like it is. My life is an open book and I treasure the lows just as much as the highs. Life is beautiful, and scrapbooking allows me to put it all on a page.

diana hutas-toth (todido)
My name is Diána. I'm a hungarian scrapper. I live near Budapest. I'm with my husband since 14 years together and we have a 3 year old daughter named Dalida. Scrapping is my second life! I love it!! I started scrapping a few years ago... simply and solely. Since then, I have been addicted and I can't quit. I found my true style just a few months ago. This is MINIMAL, simply to express my feelings. This is the real challenge. I'm happy!

We have a little girl named Julie, 4 years old and she is the main topic of my pages. I discovered scrapbooking in 2007 and I've been digital since September 2008 and I love it!!

lorraine johns (aka neatfreak)
Photography is my passion, scrapbooking my therapy and the two people who suffer most are my daughters LOL. I tell my stories with photos. I like my own company and can spend hours walking on my own (with my camera of course!) just being. I am a night owl and long for Fridays when I can sleep in late the next day. The only perfume I can wear is Chanel 19. Oh and the name Neat Freak is what my daughters call me due to my obsessive tidiness!!

lia lotito (aka lialotito)
PI'm Lia, a brazilian living in Ecuador (for now, until the next country...LOL!). I'm married and we have a beautiful son, as you can in my layouts all the time. At the beginning of 2009 I was looking through some websites and suddently I became a scrapper! I love to spend time with my family and register these moments in scrapbook pages. I also find in srapbook a way to let my creativity flow and to be connected to people all over the world. It's my new passion, just as photography, tv series, travel beach, my macbook pro, chocolate and coffee.

Marina (aka Miss Bubble)
What is my life?
Scrap, design, music in my ears (all the time), photography, my sweet lover, spending time with my friends, my pupils, clothes, shoes, eating delicacies, reading japanese novels, dreaming, stroking my cat, my computer, smiles. These are some of the elements of my everyday life among so many others!

nancy (bluefiji97)
Hi! I'm a married mom of 3 currently living in Florida. I'm originally from NY and am enjoying the slower pace here. I love all things related to digital scrapping - from photography, journaling, layout design, the community, etc. When I'm not scrapping, you'll find me reading, gardening, or at the beach. I strive for simplicity in all aspects of my life. Clean and simple is a way of life for me. So thrilled to be here!

nicole marshall
I am mother of two, and happily married. I am publicly known as the 'paparazzi mom'. I have more than a slight obsession with photography. And a notable affection for public radio (CBC). I live in the beautiful province of British Columbia in Canada. After my family, my favorite things are glaciers, hot sauce,
jumping on the kids trampoline, politics, and really long books. I could eat overcooked green beans and Indian food every day. I hope my children know how loved they are by seeing how I documented and journaled our lives.

amy martin (alb52)
I am a believer, wife, mother, sister and daughter. I have been married to my best friend for almost a decade and have three lovely children to continue the legacy. I take things as they come and am extremely content in my life... I snap way too many pictures, as my children will readily agree! I have been digital scrapping since 2003 and have enjoyed dabbling in hybrid lately.

desiree (gavinsmum)
I'm a girl who likes the simple things in life. And that crosses over into my scrapbooking. Try as I may to attempt different styles, I almost always inevitably come back to white and minimalist. I love to fiddle with different type treatments, but rarely stray from my favorite fonts. I love taking photos, but love doing no-photo layouts just as much. I love to quote movies and almost all of my favorites are from that fabulous decade; the 80's. I love my sweet boy, Gavin. My family. My iMac. Creating.

Audrey Neal
sometimes i'm really surprised at the things i'm lucky enough to be able to say about myself in bios like this. i'm a wife and a mama. i'm a teacher and a grant coordinator. i'm a picture taker and a story recorder, a digital designer and a scrapbook author. i'm a book devourer, a music lover (especially live), a wannabe globe-trotter. i'm happy, i'm geeky, i'm incredibly blessed.

becky pogatchnik
I have been digi scrapping for two
years and consider it an ideal medium for my ultra simple style. I see myself as more of a biographer than a scrapbooker, as my goal is to document my daughter’s life through words and photos (in that order). You can check out my work in Digital Scrapbooking Magazine, where I serve on the magazine's creative team.

tali stouwe (t_a_l_i)
I'm Tali, but I usually go by Mommy or Wifey. My hubby and I have 3 kids - our sweet chick Ella and our super cute twin dudes Jacob and Boden. We live in the middle of nowhere and nature is right outside our door. I live for Netflix and the DVR, and dinner at a new restaurant tops my list of fun things to do. I can't go more than a day without checking my email and I'm addicted to Facebook. I also love photography, cooking, and reading. Digital scrapbooking has opened up a side of me that I did not know existed - my creative side!

susan toon (susantoon)
My name is Susan Toon. I have been married 15 years to the most generous, caring and supportive man, Nick. We have three children of our own (Kayla is 11 ½, Madison is 9 and Connor is 5). Then we have custody of my husband’s half sister that is 14 years old. Pulling her from an abusive atmosphere. The girl has gone through things that n one should never have to. I run my own photography business with a dear friend as a business partner, and it is just thriving. I paper scrapped for 9 years until getting into photography. That’s when going digital just made sense since I was shooting digital. I have been digi scrapping for 3 years now and love it. I’m also branching out into the hybrid area when I have time to play.

Crissy Armstrong (aka mrsstingfish) - May 2009
I'm an upstate-NewYorker, turned Floridian (it's official). I'm a picture-taking, coffee-drinking, oreo-loving, jeans-wearing, Christian wife of six years and mother of a toddler. I love everything creative, artistic and inspiring - including photography, scrapbooking and graphic design. It's no wonder that I feel in love with digital scrapbooking! I work from home in sales for a software company out of NJ but that is such a small part of who I am. My husband, daughter and I spend a lot of time on the water: beach, boat, jetski, fishing, etc... I am a minimalist by nature and have a lot for oganization. You could almost call it "my other hobby." :) And, ever day, my goal is to just enjoy the time we have together. That is why I love this scrapbooking hobby: it captures our everyday life. To me, that is art.

Nicole Ishida (aka aromachock) - April 2009
Wife and Mother to two gorgeous little boys. Proud Aussie but currently a Portland, OR Resident. Photographer. Digi Scrapper. Storyteller. Sponge for all things creative and inspiring. It doesn't take much to make me happy just good food, good wine, good books, good movies, a computer in easy reach and, of course, my family.

LaRissa Vanbeek (aka larissa) - March 2009
I'm a wife and a mother of 2, soon to be 3 children and a dog. I'm addicted to digi scrapbooking and photography (still trying to learn the ropes of photography). I live for summer, days I can leave windows open, swimming, wine and cheesecake, my girls' giggles, and my husband's hugs.

Anya Powell (aka bellabear) - March 2009
I scrap to capture the life we lead and the love I have for my family, including my two sweet daughters and my supportive husband. My style (in my home and on a layout) stems from finding simplicity, harmony and balance - often among seemingly different genres - like when you pair a sharp/soft cheese with a sweet/crisp apple! Stark modern compliments comfortable traditional. Frank Lloyd Wright meets feminine baroque. Smooth and silky mixes it up with chunky and texture. Chaos becomes order. Nature.

Leah - February 2009
I live for all things creative. It really helps me get through the tougher times in life. I recently got my first Canon Rebel and now scrapbooking and photography go hand in hand. I am a mother to three crazy and wild boys and they are the focus of my scrapbooking. When they won't let me take one more picture of them, I am an avid reader and blogger.

I love to create, whether it's digitally or getting messy with paints, clay, markers, you name it. Nothing is off limits. Aside from the obvious (my family), the ocean makes me the happiest. I feel free being near it. My first passion is actually music. :)

For me, it's all about the happy. I surround myself with it and revel in it. My kids, my hubbie, scrapping, designing, charity. All are happy things that make my days wonderful. And Paislee Press. Gosh that makes me happy.
