Erin
Erin is 25 and has two wonderful kids, Maddox and Samara. Erin has also been engaged to fiance, TJ for 3 years, although they have been a couple for about 6 years. Erin started digital scrapping in 2007. She started by learning cool photo edits and creating “photo collages” and by late 2007 she realized what she was doing was called digital scrapbooking and she was hooked! By the middle of 2008 Erin was getting curious about how kits were made and that lead to her first attempts at designing. By September, Erin posted her first freebie kit on her blog. She said it was awful, so she deleted it once she moved on to bigger and better kits. Erin is blown away whenever someone likes her work. She is quite modest! Here’s a preview of her beautiful “Rejoice” kit.

Jen Jen is named after Guinevere from that 70s version of Camelot so that her mom could call her Jenny; but Jen has NEVER been Jenny. Jen lives in Southern California with her husband and her little boy, Alton. She used to love to read, but now all of her free time is spent scrapping and designing. She still bakes and makes the best brownies around. Her husband jokes that he married her for her chocolate chip cookies and stays for the brownies. She started digi-scrapping in August of 2008, and started designing so she could give better freebies on her blog. She is a sucker for stars and you will be hard pressed to find a kit of hers without one somewhere. Here’s a preview of her lovely “A Star Danced” kit.
