Design Team Spotlight: Team Member and Instructor Marie Caldwell!

I started scrap booking about 5 years ago thanks to my daughter Chris. I got hooked really quick. I started doing pages of my grandchildren. They are so cute! Then realized I had a ton of travel pictures just sitting in plain ole albums. I made it my mission to scrap each trip. Well I’m still working on the trips, because we keep taking more trips!
My favorite thing to do is take classes at Scrapbook Fever and learn from all of the other instructors. They all “challenge” me to get out of my comfort zone. I love to learn all of the new techniques that are available. The fact that you can complete a project in a couple of hours is very appealing to me. I find I don’t have as much time to scrap as I would like to have, so classes work really well.
One of my true passions is card making. I’m sure some of you have taken my classes. I’m working on a new technique (well, new for me) that I will share during the Giftmas Extravaganza. In the meantime, I ‘m trying to get ready for the All Night scrappy on Saturday! Hope to see you there!

Blog Spotlight: Instructor and Design Team Member Susan Allen!

From Susan:

I have always loved to scrapbook ever since I was young. Scrapbooking has been a hobby in our family for 3 generations. When I was little my Grandmother and Mother both made scrapbooks. I loved to just look at them and see what my relatives looked like that I hadn't seen before. My Grandmother had a black photo album with black pages in it. She even used a white ink pen. Where did she get that pen?! To this day the photos and the album look like she just completed it, it looks that new. My Mother made albums with cards , postcards and she did scrapbooking while she was growing up. She would make me albums and cut out a piece of the fabric of the dresses that she had made for me and shared why she had made that particular dress. It was fun to look at them while I was growing up. I think it is so important to write the stories behind the picture and memorabilia. I tell all my getting started classes that it you are not in the room the book has to tell the story for you. My Grandmother and Mother both did this and wow it sure helps keep the history going. Now my Daughter and granddaugher both share this tradition.

I do each of my albums in themes. Some are chronological and some are by events. I love how the color sets the tone and the mood of my pictures. My favorite part is to add the ebellishments especially the bling, after I have created my layout with a title and journaling.

Catch the bug with scrapbooking and share it with your family and friends!

Don't Forget! Join us Saturday Night!

Blog Spotlight: Instructor and Design Team Member Janet Bradshaw!

Hi, my name is Janet and I am a scrapper. I've been scrapbooking as long as I can remember. I have small scrapbooks and journals from my junior high and high school. I worked on the school yearbook staff and even worked my way up to co-editor for two years. When I went on my Senior trip to England, I created a scrapbook. Today those scrapbook looks very antique, but they captured the moments, the memories and the magic.

I took up the new hobby back in 1998 and shortly after that discovered Scrapbook Fever. I sent an e-mail inquiring about a weekend position and thus began my long affiliation with the fantastic Fever Team. I worked weekends and taught classes for a couple of years while my daughter was younger. Then I took off a few years from the store and returned in 2004 when I was laid off from my desk job. I worked the sales floor and I began teaching again. The saddest day I remember at Scrapbook Fever was two years ago when I had to say "I'm going back to work full time and will only be able to teach". I miss the store, I miss the employees and I miss the customers, but I stay close by filling the role of the class coordinator. If only there were more hours a day for scrapbooking!

My passion is scrapping heritage photos and stories, then I remember that "today's memories" will one day be heritage photos for future generations. I scrapbook all aspects of my life and the life around me. I love photography, but even more than that, I love to scrapbook the fantastic shots that Michael takes. He has such talent that he makes my job of scrapping a breeze. My greatest reward from scrapbooking is learning from others and sharing ideas. Our instructors, employees, design team members and customers are so very talented. A special thanks to all of you for helping me become the scrapper I am today! -- Janet Bradshaw, 2007
