Here are the designers that help with the weekly sketches and keep Little shop of sketches ticking along……
My name is Tanya Leigh and live in Christchurch, New Zealand with my partner Neil and our 5 boys, Daniel (18), Cameron (14), Jarrod (12) Leigh (10) and Noah (3). We also have 2 students one from Thailand, Nin (18). I have been scrapbooking for the last 6 years and a cardmaker for the last 11 years. I started scrapbooking at my LSS and loved it so much it has turned into a business. I run my business from home called Stampin’ Scrap Paperie with a scrapbook forum, gallery and a online shop. I work well from sketches and thought what a great thing for me to do, my own sketches. I am still learning as I go and my sketches have grown since I started in May 08. From time to time you will see my layouts up here, when I have time to do them.
Thanks for stopping by!
I’m 26 years old. My husband is in the Army National Guard and I love him very much. Our three kids are 4 1/2, 3 and 8 months. Before I had kids, I was a graphic designer and web developer. Now, I do a little freelance work on the side, but I’m pretty much a stay-at-home mom now and that is by far a greater challenge. I love my God and my family and my life revolves around them.
I’ve been into scrapbooking for about 2 1/2 years. I love it, but have a hard time finding, or making, the time for it. You can’t have a lot of stuff out when little hands are about. Because of that, I’ve entered into the world of digital scrapbooking where it’s just me and my computer. I’m finding that I like it very much, but will still continue to do some traditional paper scrapbooking when I get the chance. I’m also known for my handmade altered item gifts. There’s a whole world out there! How am I supposed to choose just one niche?
Hi there, my name is Monique Liedtke. I live in the most wonderful town called Delft in The Netherlands and I’m a SAHM of 3 wonderful kids: 1 daughter (Manon, 12) and 2 sons (Timothy, 9 and Mats, 4). It will be no surprise that they are the main focus of my scrapping. I’ve been married for 12 ½ years to Patrick, who is luckily very supportive of my scrapbooking addiction. I started scrapbooking about 6 years ago when a friend of mine asked me to join her to a workshop which had “something to do with photos”. This turned out to be a scrapbooking workshop, which was something that was until then quite unknown here in The Netherlands. I became addicted straight away! I love that scrapbooking gives me a creative outlet and that it makes me so much more “aware” of every little thing than I was before I started scrapping.
My other hobbies include reading, photography, (listening to) music, traveling and walking (with Jippie, our Cocker Spaniel). I’m a volunteer at my kids’ school library and I work occasionaly in the local scrapbook store. As of January this year my youngest goes to school too and I’m considering finding a job as HR Advisor again. However, my true passion will always be scrapbooking! I love surfing the net and entering contests & challenges just to have fun and meet new people, which is how I found this wonderful site!! I adore working with sketches and I think Tanya’s sketches rock!
My name is Stefanie and I am a scrap-aholic. I am married to Andrew, for nearly 21 years now and we have three children, aged 15, 12 and 9. I have been scrapping for about 6 years and have a small studio from home where I give scrapbooking lessons twice a week. I also host a scrapping blog called www.journalingjunkie.blogspot.com where we desire to challenge people to improve their journaling. I scrap to journal and tell the story, just in case something happens to me or I get old and can’t remember all the facts that I want to. I love working with sketches too, just makes scrapping a little easier.

My name is Pearl and I’m a SAHM to 2 wonderful children, living in Sunny Singapore. I first started scrapbooking after my wedding in 1993 , without using any acid free products .There were very few acid free products available then here . Needless to say , that album is now yellow with age ! After the birth of our daughter in 1995, I started cardmaking via punchart and acquired the tools , punches and papers in the hopes that they would be useful for my kids at the right age. Well, I’m still the main user of all that product and tools ! From 2006, onwards ,there was such a shift in products available in the papercraft industry and I started using more scrapbooking products in my cardmaking. Magazines and on-line galleries were full of inspiration, so by October 2006 I started scrapbooking again and have never looked back since.
Hello, my name is Lynette Jacobs. I live in Port Elizabeth on the east coast of South Africa. I have been married to Kobus for the past 30 years and we have three grown children. We have also been blessed with four beautiful grandchildren…who are also the subject of most of my scrapping.
My husband and I founded a non-profit organization that provides for the needs of nearly 500 homeless and poor people whom we house at the Mission. This work is very stressful and emotional and scrapbooking provides me with much needed stress-relief. I started scrapbooking three years ago and was instantly hooked. I love that my hobby can give me so much pleasure and at the same time create a legacy for my children and grandchildren.
I seldom do any off the page projects and prefer pages that can be slipped into my albums. I am on no Design Teams and am honored to be guest designing here on your sketch site.
What a good looking team!
