Introducing ...

Thank you for joining us this past month as we introduced

the members of our 2012 Design Team to you.

We think we've got a great group of designers and hope you enjoyed getting to know them.

Today we would like to introduce to you one more member....

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled to be a part of the Imaginisce team again this year and taking on the role of DT Co-ordinator. We've got lots of exciting things in store! I began scrapbooking as a child but really got started about 15 years ago - the era of stickers and dissecting ones' photos to pieces! I honestly can't even bear to look at those pages now! I live in British Columbia, Canada with my husband and our three children. They ALL keep me busy as wife and mother but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love playing the piano, watching romantic movies, going to the beach, photography and, of course, spend way too much time scrapbooking!!

Here are 5 interesting facts about me:

1. When I was 8 years old I went with my family to Quito, Ecuador to visit some friends who were missionaries. We went over Christmas time and I remember it being so strange to not have snow for Christmas.
2. When I was 25 I graduated with my Masters of Music in Piano. I loved studying intensely for 2 years and find that playing piano relaxes me and soothes my soul. My fingers just become one with the keyboard. A feeling that I can't truly describe. I've taught piano now for over 20 years.
3. I'm extremely ticklious!
4. I love chocolate! LOVE it!
5. I am extremely claustrophobic and get bad motion sickness. (not a great thing when we have a Disneyland trip planned in a few months!)

One thing that most people don't know about me (well my family & my hubby do):

When I was about 3 years old I took my Dad's shaving razor and decided I was going to shave just like he did every morning. Only problem was is that I started on my nose!! I actually sliced off a very small section on the side of my nose. My parents were worried that I'd have to have some kind of plastic surgery when I was older but it healed fine and you can't even tell.
