This week I want to let the new girls tell a little about themselves....
This way you all get to know them a little bit better.
The team is a real international group now. And I have to say that reading this little notes about their personal really gave me the idea that I know them a little better.
I sure hope that this goes for you too.
Enjoy the little life stories of:
Irene:
Hi, I'm Irene. I love Michelle Perkett’s
digital stamps and I’m thrilled to be part of this fantastic design team! I
live in northern California with my wonderful husband and our "fur
children." I write the local and national scrapbooking columns at Examiner.com. My mom
and I offer free card-making and craft project events through our charity,
Scrapbooking Together. I enjoy scrapbooking, card-making, hiking, traveling and
everything Disney.

Elenor
My name is Elenor and I live in Umeå, a town in the north of Sweden!
I work with disabled teens at a high school and it's an interesting and fun
job!
My free time is mostly spent crafting: making cards, LO's, altering things and
trying out new techniques! =) I've also began to make things with wire, a new
hobby of mine! Otherwise I love to go dancing, baking, biking and take photo's!
Looking forward to be one of Michelle's mermaids and getting to know everyone
else on the team!

Sharon
I’m Sharon
and I live “Down Under” in South
Australia! I’m 40 something LOL and I am married with
2 teenage daughters, 3 dogs and 2 cats! My husband and I own our own Turf
Management Business so I work outdoors come rain, hail or shine and more often than
not have grease under my fingernails from operating and maintaining
machinery!!! But when I’m not working on turf I am in my little office/craft
room creating! I love to make absolutely anything including cards, boxes, bags,
jewelry, art dolls, mini books and I love all styles including vintage, arty,
asian, sassy, modern, traditional, semi cute, collage, altered art etc. etc.
Anything goes with me! I also like to sew so I try to incorporate my digi
stamps into some form of a fabric creation when I have a chance. I have been
stamping/crafting for over 20 years – would you believe I made my own 21st
Birthday Invitations and I also used to run my own Wedding Invitation Business
from home and via the Internet! I’m looking forward to working with Michelle’s
Designs.

Jenn
Hi! My name is Jenn
and I am sooooo excited to be a member of Michelle's design team!!! This
is my first design team experience and I am just so thrilled to be a part of
such a fabulous group! I've been a fan of Michelle & her artwork for
quite some time now. A little about me - I am 39 years old, my husband
Jeremy and I have 2 children. Our son Trevor is 17, has Asperger's, and
graduates from high school this year. Our daughter Cassidy will be 16
next month - she's in 10th grade. We live in Worcester,
Massachusetts. I have been stamping and making cards since 2002. I
just signed on as a staff member of Scrapbook News & Review
magazine, an exciting work-from-home opportunity that I was thrilled to
get! Some of the other things I enjoy are reading (Stephen King is my
favorite author), writing, genealogy, photography, and surfing the
Internet. I love bright things, colors and clothes and jewelry... I like
funky, gothic, unique stuff. I love the peace sign and stuff from the
'60's and '70's. I love to blog, and I try to do so daily. I'm a
little bit addicted to Facebook. My family and friends mean the world to me
- I consider my friends the family I've chosen for myself. I have a
sister who is one year and 3 days younger than me, we grew up like twins and
besides my husband, she is my best friend in the world.
I really do consider my husband my best friend, we get along really well and
have a lot of fun together.

Karen
I am 54 1/2 years old, and have been stamping for 15 years.
I am happily married with 5 cats and a dog.
Don't be surprised to see a pet hair embellishment on my cards.
I found Michelle Perkett when she designed several stamp sets
for The Angel Company.
Her images were so lovely, and charming, with heartfelt sentiments.
When I found she did digital designs...I was converted.
I havent given up my rubber stanps. I do both.
I
appreciate the "soulfullness" of her images, and hope you feel that
through my creations

in the Northern Territory of Australia with my husband.
I love creating with anything papercraft related - including ATCs, digital
stamps, rubber stamping, cardmaking, scrapbooking, art journalling and altered
books/art.
I also enjoy knitting and cross stitch.

I hope you got to know them a little bit better... during the coming weeks you sure are going to love their work. They are working very hard to prepare all the cards to inspire you all.
Have a great weekend!
