*Mel Hains Designes*

I am Mel from Mel Hains designs and I am TOTALLY addicted to anything scrappy! I started digiscrapping and designing rougly 3 years ago and am now selling my designs at Scrap that Idea. I am very happy to be the Guest designer for Gingerscraps for the month of December! My scrappy style changes as much as my mood does from minute to minute. At this stage I am very fond of the ‘papery’ look, but just about anything goes. I love doodles. My kits will usually have some kind of doodle somewhere, I just love them! I feel very fortunate that big name designers like Kim B, Ellie Lash and Lindsay Jane took the time to replied to my emails to them when I initially started designing, I am still crazy about their stuff! I have a 7 year old daughter named Savannah and live with my partner Damien and my two crazy cats, George and Orwell, in sunny Durban, South Africa. We also have our own photography business which is my other passion. I hope you enjoy my designs here at Gingerscraps! 🙂 My store will be 30% off for the first week, so enjoy the exclusive goodies here at Gingerscraps!

Mel has some Delicious goodies out today! Take a look-

Pixels by Jen Bio:
I am so excited to be a Gingerbread Lady here at GingerScraps! I have been digi scrapping since 2008 and designing since 2009. I was originally a paper scrapbooker and still love hybrid. I am married and have two wonderful boys that keep me hopping and full of pictures. In addition to digi scrapping I enjoy crochet, cooking and gardening.

She’s Country Kit:

This kit is full of beautiful lace patterns and colors. Inspired from modern western wear, this kit is both elegant and classy. Perfect for heritage and special occasion layouts or just to scrap your softer side. It includes 10 papers and 26 elements. If you like this kit you may also like the She’s Country Paper Pack Add On and the She’s Country Alphabet.

She’s Country Paper Pack Add On

These 10 papers add a playful and relaxed feel to the She’s Country Kit. Included are 5 hand doodled bandana papers and 5 coordinating solids.

She’s Country Alphabet

The carved wood in this alphabet coordinate with the frames in the She’s Country Kit. They go beyond being feminine and would work great for outdoor and rustic layouts as well.

*Unforgettable Moments*

Unforgettable Moments Bio: My name is Amy of Unforgettable Moments. You may have seen me around digi-land as Buggie, AmyP, or ~Aim~. I have been on the GingerScraps CT, and I am beyond excited to join the Ginger Bread Ladies design team! I love everything about digital scrapbooking. I love the artistic aspects, I love how much fun it is, and I especially love that scrapbooking allows me to preserve my memories. I have two incredible young boys and I want to remember every little precious moment of their childhood. I want to make all my moments in life and with my family unforgettable… the big milestones as well as the “mundane” everyday. I want my albums to contain a legacy of my own life and that of my husband’s for my children, grandchildren, and beyond. Scrapbooking and digital-scrapbook design allows me to do just that! I would be honored to be able to help you along your journey of preserving all your Unforgettable Moments too!

And last but surely not least- help me give a big welcome to Susie of Psychozoe Designs (know in the GingerScraps forum as Psychozoe)

*Blog *Twitter *Facebook

Psychozoe Designs Bio- I am a wife, a mom to 2 teen sons; and 4 fur-babies. I’m always doing something creative.. interior design, silk floral design, photoshop, scrapbooking, and now digital scrapbooking. For several years I was on myspace as my dog, Chiqi, and my cat, Zoe, lol! I have thousands of pics I’ve made of them and their pet friends… just a portion of them are on my facebook now. We deleted our myspace.. taking too much time and since I discovered digi scrapping, that’s my main focus besides my family. Chiqi (my Minpin) has her own space in the master closet, lots of clothes and costumes and accessories… and Zoe (my kitty) is now my Digi name! PsychoZoe because she is the type of cat that lets you pet her for a second, then attacks… etc etc… several scars later. Plus, she is my computer buddy. She has to be in the middle of everything I’m doing. It’s so nice to be here. Thank you, Ginger, for inviting me here!!!!

Starting off with 3 CU items…
