Creative Team
Darcy Laura Keely Jennifer
Hi, I'm Darcy (aka aslansavz) and am so proud to be on Karah's creative team. I live near Dallas, Texas with my DH and 2 young sons, our two cats and two beta fish. We're a homeschooling family that loves to play, read, learn, and generally have a good time.

I started digi-scrapping in July '06, though I had been paper scrapping almost three years before that, though I usually only touch my paper supplies now to dust (which never really happens, but we can all pretend, right?) or to go on a paper retreat with friends from my paper days. I am also a fontographer, selling here at BlueFlombingo along with Karah. I enjoy the art of keeping my family's memories while still being able to give myself a creative outlet. After losing my mom two years ago, the memory keeping has become even more important to me. And if nothing else, my boys LOVE looking through our books and hearing me tell and retell and tell again the stories of their life - that in itself makes it all worthwhile!
My name is Laura McCandless (lmccandless). I live in Kansas City with my husband, Kevin, our daughters, Elizabeth and Julia, and our dog Leo. You will see all of them in my layouts! As a family, we enjoy walking, gardening, reading and traveling. My personal hobbies include doing crossword puzzles, decorating my house, shopping and the occassional knitting project.

I developed my addiction to digiscrapping in February of 2007. Although I was never a paper scrapper, digital scrapbooking has also led me to complete some hybrid projects. I love scrapping because it gives me such a wonderful creative outlet while building a great legacy for my family to enjoy. The only drawback I have found to this craft is that I would rather scrap than sleep, which is not such a good idea for a busy mom!

I am thrilled to be on Karah's creative team. Her unique designs have so much personality and interest to them! They really inspire my creativity!
I'm Keely, I live in Austin,TX with my husband and two daughters. Digital scrapbooking is my favorite past time. I started scrapbooking about ten years ago when I was pregnant with my first daughter. I discovered Photoshop and digital scrapbooking three years ago and became an immediate convert. I love the creative freedom that it allows, not to mention the ability to undo and scrap without a mess. I really like experimenting, learning new techniques and running with whatever inspires me at the moment. I have found a great sense of community and so much inspiration in the digital community. When I'm not scrapping I love to read, work on my photography skills, watch movies, I love my Tivo too. My family tends to be the focus of my layouts, lucky for me, they are my favorite people. We are a goofy bunch but we enjoy each other. We try to take advantage of whatever activities are going on around town, we like to camp, hike, fish and do anything near water.

I'm so honored to be a part of Karah's team. Her designs have such a fun, unique style, wonderful details and textures, they're inspiring on their own.

Hi! I’m Jennifer C (goofy4dj) and I live in Washington state. My husband Danny and children, JR and McKena are the loves of my life. We are a pretty active bunch so when we are not working, we enjoy camping, fishing, and boating.

I’ve always been a very crafty person and started scrapbooking as a teenager. A few years ago I dipped my toes into digital scrapbooking and was intrigued. Now I am both a mixed media and scrapbook artist.

This hobby has been such a blessing. I’ve met so many amazing people that share my creative passion. The opportunity to work with Karah has been icing in the cake! Her designs are truly inspiring!

Kylie Erica Ann-Marie Mareen
Hi I am Kylie (known as kyl099 in the scrapping community), I live in Sydney Australia with my wonderful husband and two sons. I have digital scrapbooking since January 2006 and love spending time with my family and taking lots of photos so I can scrap them! I found digi scrapping whilst looking for something to do with all my photos that had been sitting on my hard drive never seeing the light of day - and wow did I find an amazing hobby!

In my first few months scrapping I found out about "creative teams" and that became my main aim for the year (aswell as getting published) - to actually get good enough that someone would want me to work for them! I stumbled across Karah's designs and fell in love - it felt like the perfect fit, the designs were totally my style and inspired me to scrap even more! I am thrilled that I am on this team and can not believe how lucky I am to have met so many wonderful people!

I live in Northern California, with my wonderful husband and our two little girls, Grace and Sarah. I'm a SAHM, but do work p/t from home for a software company. Along with my love for scrapbooking, I'm also addicted to photography and always trying to improve my skills. My family is the inspiration for scrapbooking, so you'll see their faces in most of my layouts. I started paper scrapbooking right before my oldest daughter was born and loved it, but as she got older, it got more difficult to find the time and the space to get out all my paper goods. Eventually, I stopped scrapbooking, but instantly missed it. Since my work background is in computers, so I decided I'd try to find away to use my computer skills to continue my love for scrapbooking. One evening, I did a search on the internet on computer scrapbooking and found this huge, wonderful world of digital scrapbooking. I did my first digital layouts in the Summer of 2005 and have been hooked ever since.

A fellow digital scrapbooking addict introduced me to Karah’s fabulous designs and now I’m lucky enough to join her CT team. Thanks Karah for the opportunity to show off your stuff!

G'day! My name is Ann-Marie and I am from Melbourne, Australia. I live happily with my partner of 8 years and our 3 cheeky monkeys, Jemma 7 1/2, Zayne almost 4, and Samuel 1. I myself just turned 30!! I have been Digi scrapping since July '06 and would consider myself to be seriously addicted. Side effects include dishes in the sink and a slow but steady build up of toys around my feet;).

I am SOOO pleased to be a member of Karah's CT because hers are the very first designers kits that I ever felt the need to actually purchase rather than using the freebies out there. They are inspiring and just gorgeous. I am so proud to be a flombingo!!!

Hi! My name is Mareen (sternrakete).

I live with my husband in Germany, near Berlin.
I work full-time as a customer consultant in a bank.
I`ve been digiscrapping since 2005. When I was searching for ideas for our wedding-invitations I found my hobby!!

Because we have no children yet, I am mostly
scrapping for friends and my family.

I was always a fan of Karahs work and now I`m so happy to be a part of this very talented CT!

Jenny Veronique Thais

Hi! I'm Tracy Ducar (aka Tracyfish). I live in Central Florida with my husband Jay and our 3-yr-old L.J. (Little Jason). We are an outdoorsy family that loves to be on the lake or out at sea with a fishing pole in our hands. When we're not doing that we enjoy just hanging out with friends and family.

I started digiscrapping after seeing 1st year birthday invitations that some girls created on a baby message board. I was intrigued and decided to try it myself. Now it's an addiction and I love every minute of it.

I'm so thrilled to be a part of such a wonderful group of scrappers here on Karah's team!

I'm Jenny (anotherjenny).  I've been married for almost 13 years (wow, I sound old!), and have two wonderful kiddos.  Once upon a time, I was a chemical engineer, but these days I am an elementary school math and science teacher during the school year and a SAHM during the summer.

I started digiscrapping a few years ago when I decided to make a digital scrapbook as a going-away present for a good friend.  Once I got started, I was hooked! I still love making lots of digital layouts, and my kids provide me with plenty of inspiration.  I also really enjoy making hybrid projects, especially greeting cards. 

Being on this team is a dream come true for me.  Karah's designs are beautiful, and it's amazing to be surrounded by so much talent...I'm just thrilled to be here!

I am Véronique ... a little better known under the nickname Miss Lavanillee and I scrap past year! I'm French, living in the south around Nice. I'm 36 years old and I'm married to Christophe, since 1995! We don't yet have children but are surrounded by some 9 nephews and nieces... so I never fails to subject to scrap! For the professional side, I'm a counselor employment in our National Agency for 13 years.

Before becoming a scrap addict, I'm a big fan of photos! I also love the graphics, web design ... scrap it helps me to explore new horizons, to develop my creativity!

Apart all of this ... I love playing cards (belote, tarot or poker) with my friends... I practice humor in abundance and do not take me too seriously ... I am rather optimistic, kind (yes !!!) and diplomat. I'm told very sociable and fun! I love to help others and make myself useful (I mastered pretty well Photoshop, Lightroom for example)

My name is Thais, I am from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I live with my husband and my only son Pablo.
Pablo was born in 2004. When I was pregnant I started a blog. I knew lot of mothers and we had changed experiences every day. One day, in one of theses blogs, I saw a wonderful LO. After that moment I started to learn more and more about ScrapDigital. My first LO was done in 2005, and I never stopped after that.
My son is my inspiration. I love to capture all specials moments with my camera. I am not a professional, my camera is simple, I think LOVE is the most important element. However I try to learn more about photography and I like to use programs that help to better an image.
This year I have discovering foruns and galleries. I love change ideas and learning with Girls.
To be a part of Karah?s Creative Team is very special for me. It is a pleasure to use this products, I love her papers, strings, frames...all stuff. In additional kits for boys its not a problem!!!

 

Hi, I'm Barb from Cincinnati Ohio, where I spend most of my days and night either being scrappy or sporty.

I'm a lifelong scrapbooker, starting when I was 12 years old.
Needless to say, that was long before scrapbooking was a craft and an industry. I made my first albums with photos, gift wrapping paper, magazine clippings, magnetic albums, and cellophane tape. I've evolved a bit since then. I've been a paper scrapper for years and years, but in the past few years started more and more computer based techniques into my paper scrapping. In August 2007, I made the decision to go completely digital and I love it!

I'm married to a golf loving lawyer, the mom of a sporty and artistic
11 year old girl, and dog mom to a very lazy but lovable labrador retriever. My day job is marketing manager for a large chiropractic practice, and I do freelance commercial photography for local non profit organizations. I also teach taekwondo, where I'm in the process of training for my third degree black belt. I love all sports, photography, crafts, cooking and of course, scrapbooking. I love talk radio and reality television and hope to be on Survivor one of these days. I hate gardening, folding laundry, and being late for anything.

I'm thrilled to be on a team for such a hot designer like Karah, her work inspires me to scrap all of the time!

Hi, I'm Brandy aka Mamasita. I was born and raised in West Virginia and still reside here. It is a great place to raise children. I did live in Columbus, Ohio for about three years while I attended college. I married my high school sweet heart, RJ, right out of college and we got pregnant on our honey moon. Joseph was born 9 month later in June of 1999. Then came Hunter in September of 2001 and we couldn't stop there. I just had to try once more for a little girl. Hailey arrived in July of 2004. Now our family is complete and perfect for us.

It never really crossed my mind to scrapbook because I never had the time since I worked as well as raised three children. I didn't really have the room, money or time to scrap. I did belong to a parenting forum and helped make signatures for the members there. In January of 2007, I did a search on the web trying to find something different for the signatures and that is when I stumbled across digital scrapbooking. It was perfect for me, no mess and it wasn't time consuming. I have been addicted ever since! Besides scrapping, I also love to swim, dance, walk, watch ball games and spend time with my family and friends.

I was so excited when I received the email from Karah to invite me as a permanent member to her creative team! I love her designs because they are realistic looking and have fabulous shadows included which makes it less time consuming for me. I'm also excited because her other team members are so sweet and full of inspiration.
