I started scrapbooking in 2003 and scrapped alone for the next couple of years not knowing about the online world. It wasn’t until 2006 that I actually got on line and was completely blown away by all the stores, forums and products.
I love the idea of recording the “Here and Now” – especially my children as they do and say the funniest things. I also love that a photo does not have to be perfect to scrap. It just needs to be recorded as is “Because life can be out of focus sometimes”. I am very excited to be a Guest DT for Tomorrow’s Memories and look forward to getting to know all the girls a lot more. Thank you very much.

I am totally obsessed with this craft that I am so lucky to be working in. I'm thrilled that I can combine my love of taking photos and scrapbooking to capture and record the little moments and the big ones in my children's lives. Jo kay
Hi my name is Jo. I am 42 and a wife to my extremely supportive husband, Phil and mother to Jack (10) and Grace (6). I think that my love for paper started when I was about 6 years old when (as Mum tells it), I used to wrap up everything that I could find in layers of paper and tape them together! vicki Cowan
My creative life started before I had children playing with fine needle embroidery. After this I dabbled in card making and this was where I found my best crative outlet. Some 13 years and three children later I still love card making and off the page projects. My children have kept me very busy over the years but when my youngest started pre-primary I found I needed to find something more to challenge me, but still keep my hands on time with the kids TRACEY HOLDYK
I am 40 something (you don’t need to know the details), married with two beautiful children. I have been Scrapbooking for 8 years now but was originally a stamper and card maker. Once I found Scrapbooking, that was it, I was totally hooked and have never looked back. My biggest wish was to work in the industry, so when I got my first job working in a store, I was like a child let loose in a lolly shop. I had died and gone to heaven. http://alusciousjourney.blogspot.com SONYA THAIR
Hi everyone, I am Sonya. I joined Tomorrow’s Memories team around July 2006. I was lucky enough to be asked by Jo, Vicki and Clori to teach the Beginner’s Scrap Course after having my daughter’s school fundraising scrap at the store. Well as most of you would think, it was a dream come true! http://oneoflifeslittlemoments.blogspot.com/ SUSAN temple
Hi, I am Susan, a (mostly) stay-at-home Mum to three beautiful children, Riley, Lydia and Merryn. http://www.stitchscrapsew.blogspot.com/ KIRSTY CAMPBELL
Hi, my name is Kirsty Campbell. I am married to my wonderful husband Mark and we have three gorgeous children ranging in ages from 8 years to 2 months. I love all aspects of this priceless craft, the people, the shopping, the online communities, the creative outlet, the feeling of leaving a legacy for my family and did I mention the shopping??!! My loves are my beautiful hubby, my gorgeous kiddies, photography, chocolate, DVD's’ on a wet day and anything vintage or shabby chic. www.intheblinkofaneye.typepad.com LENNIE PELICH
Hi, my name is Lennie. My career background was in nursing and my first venture into being creative was paper tole, which I really enjoyed and I also had a short stint doing folk art. I became interested in card making and scrapbooking about four years ago and loved the technqiue of aging paper. Rebecca Beattie
Although my name is Rebecca most know me simply as Beck. I am married and in my early 30s. I have been card-making for about 4 years and have more
recently moved over to the dark (or should that say bright) world of scrapbooking after wanting to for years. I absolutely love off the page
stuff, and working with a 12x12 sheet which at first was quite daunting being card maker, as it is a much larger space. I am still figuring out what my 'style' is but I guess that it is more on the artistic side as I love to experiment with different mediums for textured effects on my layouts. I am always on the lookout for new products or tools that I can add a new dimension to my work with. I also love anything miniature, (especially when it comes to embellishments) and to experiment with different styles. Although I still love my card making and giving them away, I am absolutely loving scrapbooking as I am taking the time to document the moments in our lives which are SO important to me. http://justmebingme.blogspot.com Alyssa Rowe
I think that I have always had a fascination for making things. I can remember raiding Mum's sewing box for scraps of material, lace and buttons to make pincushions, stockpiling empty tins and wrapping paper to decorate and french knitting endless snakes from left-over wool from the age of about 9. I have probably tried just about every craft going; cross stitch, candle making and mosaics to name a few. The one thing I have consistently done though, is papercraft. I first got hooked on stamping at a craft show somewhere around 20 years ago (it's a little scary to see that in print!) and I have made cards ever since. Scrapbooking took me a while to get into. A very good friend tried to persuade me to give it a try, but at the time I didn't really think it was for me. Cue forward a couple of years and another good friend invited me to a Beginner's Class. It only took the one class, and I was hooked. Slightly obsessed is probably more accurate... My current passion is die cutting and embossing, which gets incorporated into all my cards, scrapbooking and off-the-page projects. I love the versatility of it, and I am always looking for a new way of using the same die, or some new technique I can adapt. It has been know to keep me up at night. Yes, obsessed for sure, but it's not like it's a bad thing, is it?" Evana Willis
I am a 37yr old stay at home mum to 4 great kids who are a constant inspiration. Kate is 16, Nikita is 10, Liam is 8 & Joel is 2. My wonderful husband Craig has been a huge support for my obsession. You know what they say...."Happy wife, Happy home". I have been blessed to have create such an envrionment from a hobby that started at a Creative Memories class in 2001. Since then I have held DT spots with Luv2Scrapbook (USA) prior to their change of ownership, DT role with Shop & Crop Australia (Online), and contracts with the Australian Magazine 'For Keeps' & also be an Elite Team member from 2005-2006 (the first kiwi member) , a contract with NZ Magazine 'Up2Scrap' from 2005 - 2006, worked for my local scrapbook store in Nelson where I was also creating and maintaining their blog, purchasing , marketing, & running my own classes. I was proud to be a Fiskars Ambassador for the Nelson Region (NZ)and I am now a Fiskars Ambassador for Perth WA. We moved to Perth in June this year after my husband took a role with a company here, and we are loving it. I am lucky enough to have my Dad and a heap of other family members here so this transition has been easier than other international relocations. THAT'S ME! I love this craft. I love the relationships you make along the way, and I especially love to share! My friends all know me as 'e'. I am outgoing and love to chat (as the girls have discovered). I can't wait to meet some WA scrappers as I believe this state is rich in talent, and share some of my creativity with you. http://evanawillis.typepad.com/blog/ Kristen Sparkes
Hi my name is Kristen, but most people know me as Kris. I am 32 years old, married to a great husband, Adam and we have 2 gorgeous little boys Samuel (2 ½ ) and Nicholas ( 8 months). So as you can imagine my life is very hectic at the moment and I am outnumbered by the boys in our house who keep me on my toes. Prior to having my family I was a teacher in a number of primary schools around Perth and in the country. I absolutely loved teaching but the time has come for me, at the moment, to dedicate time to my growing family and enjoying every moment of their lives, hence my attraction to scrap booking. I am fairly new to scrap booking and only began after Samuel was born in 2006. Being a teacher I have always had a love of papers, paints, wall displays and anything related to scrap booking. So if you ask me, my passion for scrap booking was meant to be. I love patterned paper and will admit that I often buy it just to look at it, and I’ll probably never use some of it because I can’t bring myself to cut it up. I have become very good at hiding it around the house so Adam won’t find it!!! Aside from teaching and scrap booking, I love a good catch-up and a cuppa with my extended family and friends. I also love going away on holidays, sitting down with a good magazine and eating chocolate. It was such a great pleasure to be asked by the team at Tomorrow’s Memories, to teach their Beginner’s classes “A Scrap booking Journey” and become a Design Team member. I am so excited to be involved in the journey that every person takes when they tell the story behind their photos and layouts. I am really looking forward to the challenge. http://kris-krissys.blogspot.com/

Hi my name is Leeann Pearce. I am married to Quentin and we have two gorgeous girls’ Holly (6) and Storm (5). I live in Kalgoorlie WA. I also teach kids art classes after school, which has given me a new love for all things arty. I totally love looking through the store and always find something to try out on my scrap pages.
I started off as a 12x12 scrapper and I can happily say I am still a 12x12 scrapper. I have tried other sizes but I just love a bigger sheet of cardstock to play with. Every time I think I have a style I go and change! I now think I am an “all rounder”. I love that I can do this and no two layouts are the same. I love getting a kick out of re-arranging embellishments as if I made them myself. I also love to think outside the square. I totally love to distress and stitch everything I get a hold of and I go through real loves of products and techniques.
