I have been married to my high school sweetheart for just about 15 years and we have 3 children, Michaella (14), Hunter (10) and Kailee (5). We also have a Shih Tzu named Tinkerbell and raise Dwarf Hotot rabbits. I have lived in the southwest corner of Minnesota my entire life. When I&#8217;m not designing or scrapping, I&#8217;m teaching preschoolers at a local Head Start program. I started paper scrapping when I was in high school and switched over completely to digital in 2009 after I had my youngest. When I started digi-scrapping I found I was always changing kits to better suit my pictures, so I decided to start designing. In 2011, I entered a contest and won second place and that&#8217;s when I really got my start. Besides scrapbooking, some of the other things I enjoy spending time doing are camping with my family and traveling, photography, baking and trying my hand at just about any other crafty things.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And here are just a few of the items she has to offer here at <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.gingerscraps.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">Gingerscraps<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/World-of-Fantasy-Bundle.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i1270.photobucket.com\/albums\/jj606\/gingerscraps1\/Newsletter%20Images\/2014\/04\/01\/GS_2014_Newsletter_WoF_zpsf6372e90.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/World-of-Fantasy-Bundle.html\" href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/World-of-Fantasy-Bundle.html\">https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/World-of-Fantasy-Bundle.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Color-Your-World-Bundle.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i1270.photobucket.com\/albums\/jj606\/gingerscraps1\/Newsletter%20Images\/2014\/04\/01\/GS_2014_Newsletter_FoC_zpsebe60e80.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Color-Your-World-Bundle.html\" href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Color-Your-World-Bundle.html\">https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Color-Your-World-Bundle.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Full-of-Character-Bundle.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i1270.photobucket.com\/albums\/jj606\/gingerscraps1\/Newsletter%20Images\/2014\/04\/01\/GS_2014_Newsletter_CYW_zps77a9fdf7.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Full-of-Character-Bundle.html\" href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Full-of-Character-Bundle.html\">https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Full-of-Character-Bundle.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This month\u2019s Monthly Mix is called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Monthly-Mix-One-Planet.html\" target=\"_blank\">Our Planet<\/a>\u201d.
