My name is April Lower and I'm currently at SAHM of 2 wonderful children. My son is 5 and my daughter is 2. I have been married to my highschool sweetheart for 13 years. My husband is active duty Air Force and we currently live in Germany. We have lived here for about 4 years and in Nov. we will be moving on and going back to Guam! We are very excited about this move...we LOVE Guam! I am currently taking college courses to get my degree in Psychology, that has been the only thing I have ever really wanted to do with my life next to being a teacher. Of course if I could just craft and make good money at it...I'd do that for the rest of my life. But as of right now, it's just my passion and a hobby! I began stamping about 8 years ago when a friend turned me on to SU! I have been venturing out with other companies and fell in love with digis! I am so super excited to be part of this DT team...I love love love the images and the girls so far have been wonderful! You will see LOTS of glitter from me...I love anything and everything that sparkles! I'm very much a girly girl!

My name is Michele Greenwood and I'm looking for a 12-step stamping program - LOL! I have been married for 18 years and we are blessed with 3 children, two girls and one boy, ages 14, 12 and 10. I work outside the home and stay very busy with all the children's sporting and extra curricular activities. I originally started with scrapbooking several years ago, but somewhere along the line I stumbled across immediate gratification of creating a card. I've been addicted ever since...and those scrapbooks? They haven't seen much love!
I love to color with Copics; however, for this particular card I used pencils & odorless mineral spirits. I consider my stamping style fun, whimsical and typically feminine, although this particular card was made for my boss's birthday.
I am graciously honored to work with The Stamping Boutique; we're going to have a great time!!

Whimsical Creations
My name is Donna Espiritu from Manila, Philippines but currently living in the Middle East (for just about 6 months now) with my husband who's working here. I am a SAHW, still wishing and praying to be blessed with a little angel of our own. My husband is very supportive of my "hobby", which like any other crafty stories, later turned into obsession :P I am a traditional scrapbooker at heart, dabbled into digital and hybrid just a couple of years ago. Never thought of myself as a card-maker, ever. If I were asked a year ago if I can see myself finish a card/week I'd say NO way :D I really find card making difficult! Until now, I am still amazed on how much I've grown to love this other side of paper crafting. With scrapbooking, I love doodling, paint, inks and using "scraps" from my scraps :D I've incorporated these into my card-making style as well. You'd see bits and pieces of the same paper in my cards/projects many times :) Oh and I use watercolor, colored pencils/pens for my images. I am hoping to get myself some Copic markers in the near future - yeah, I've never ever used one. :D

My Scrapbox.
My name is Aletha and I live in Tulsa, OK. I was raised in Claremore, OK. I am married to a very supportive husband who is an artist also. He is a well known writer/editor in the energy business.
I also have two grown children, a daughter and son. Our daughter and son-in-law has blessed us with two grandsons, 15 and 12 years old. Our son married in 2009 to a wonderful young lady. And he just graduated from Oklahoma University’s Law School. We are so proud of both of them!
I am a self-taught artist all around. My husband calls it “raw talent.” I was a graphic/print production artist in the old days…meaning that my art was all done manually. There were no computers involved. And I had no formal training in any of the creative areas that I have worked in through the long years. It was all “on-the-job-training.”
Now, I get to concentrate on my creative side. As of November 2009 I became disable and unable to work outside the home. I am on oxygen 24/7. So, with the supportive husband that I have and my disability check (finally), I am thankful to say that I am a very lucky artist. I am able to practice more each day. I am truly blessed.
I am so excited to be part of The Stamping Boutique’s design team. This is a very talented group of artists. And we get to work with Tracey’s imagination. Let the creativity roll!
I do have a blog at http://ajsdesigns.blogspot.com. Please stop by sometime. And I really appreciate followers.
