Meet our CREATIVE TEAM!!! ---

Hiya Folks! I'd like to introduce our creative team to you today! These fabulously talented ladies will be joining us through the end of the year to inspire with all our fabulous products.

We were really blown away by our last round of applications and we wanted to say THANK YOU to each and every person who applied and we encourage you to KEEP applying! There is only so much room on our team and we unfortunately do have to turn away a lot of people we'd love to be part of our family.

Now onto our new team!

This is seriously a super talented group of individuals and it is INSANE. we cannot wait to be inspired!

Please let them know how excited we are and then visit their blogs to see their beautiful artworks. They'll all be posting on our blog starting now!

Hello creative friends!

Here I am with a layout 12 x 12! I can't wait for the summer, I mean really!!

So I decided to do a layout of the beach..beach... I missed beach so much!

I embossed the Netting background. And for the Doilies, I inked it with

the rainbow 13 arts and white Irresistible. 

So here it is :

Geraldine Pasinati

>>Her Blog<<

Hi, I’m Geraldine Pasinati and I live in Melbourne Australia.Painting, art and mixed media has been a passion since early childhood and now for the past 10+ years so has Scrapbooking. My creative passion is for layouts, tags and Journals (well really anything!) and my style is always simply about being 'me'.I’m very excited to be part of the wonderful UmWowStudio CT!

JaMajka
>>Her Blog<<

"Hello, it's JaMajka from Poland. I love to create, doesn't matter if it's a layout full of splashes or a colorful art journal page, or even a card with many layers - I just have to create to stay sane. My art is my way to relax or to work hard (it depends on my mood and my needs). I like challenges and new duties, I love to progress and to try something new and interesting. I love to sing, sometimes I even write songs, I love to read and I love nature. I'm an always-smiling-crazy-fiery-red-haired-person, who loves her life and passions and I'm very proud and honoured to be a part of this wonderful team!!! ♥"

Jen Matott
>>Her Blog<<

"I'm a mixed media artist and scrapbooker from outside of Syracuse, NY. I have been scrapbooking and creating mixed media art for over 20 years. Mixed media allows me to get creative with imagery and still create a 3D effect using a variety of media. My pages lean towards the dramatic and I love experimenting with materials and pushing the limits of what is traditionally done. 

I'm an art educator in a public school and believe anyone can create meaningful Art! Teaching art is what inspires me and keeps me learning! My young students teach me so much!

Currently, I design for Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft and Inside Out Visual Journaling. I have been published in several paper and online magazines."

Ladybird
>>Her Blog<<

"My name is Magali Le Luc. I am native from France, but I've moved to Montreal (Canada) 12 years ago. I am a freelance translator and the mother of three little boys. In the creative world, I nurture a passion for scrapbooking and art in general. I am deeply happy to join the team!"

Sindi Jeffers

>>Her Blog<<

"I have been scrapping for 12 years now. My style is a bit erratic, and can vary from simple and fairly clean to messy and funky. I live in the beautiful mountains of Tennessee with my wonderful hubby, my adorable son, our two spoiled basset hounds, a whole bunch of chickens, and a large goat who is convinced he's a puppy. I am very excited to be part of this team!"

Tanya Dudkina
>>Her Blog<<

"Hi! My name is Tanya, I'm happy married crazy scrapbooker who lives to inspire and to be inspired. I love everything about scrapbooking, handmade and decorating. I work in different styles, because my projects are always depend in my mood and my feelings inside. I believe that all my projects reflect my emotions and I do really love how scrapbooking helps me to express myself."

Amy

I'm Amy Lynne Lassiter, wife to my best friend from college, and momma to three daughters, ages 18,14, and 12. In my day to day, I am a librarian and classically trained singer.

Other than my amazing family, the thing I eat, sleep, and breathe is mixed media art and craft. I adore creating assemblage-style scrapbook layouts and canvases, tags, mini books, and altered projects; with an eclectic, free, and soulful vibe.

Brianna

Hello, My name is Brianna. I am a soon to be 30 year old mother 0f 3, all girls, married to my highschool sweetheart. I currently reside in southern California, but I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Maine, USA. Aside from my obvious infatuation with pretty paper, I also live for a great coffee, HOT baths, loud and soulful music, and bare feet. My scrapping style is like me, fun, playful, at times random, but it always makes me happy, and I cannot wait to show that through these amazing products!

Geraldine

Greetings!  It's Rhonda Van Ginkel from Minnesota. I've been paper crafting now for a little over 5 years since the birth of our youngest son.  I'm wife to my supportive hubby Chuck and we have 2 young boys ages 5 and 6.

I'm super thrilled to be a part of the UmWow Studio Design Team and can't wait to share my creations with you!

Tina

I am a working mom, working outside the home. I have been crafty since I was a little girl (I have my grandma to thank for that) and created my first scrapbook over 15 years ago. My latest obsession with scrapbooking started 3 years ago and I haven't stopped since. My children are grown, so much of my crafty inspiration comes from my two French bulldogs, Moose & Flikka. I live in snowy Salt Lake City, Utah, but am an Mid West girl by heart. I consider myself a craft chameleon. I frequently move from one type of crafting project to another. One day I am obsessed with creating scrapbook layouts, and the next day I'm obsessed with mixed media art. I really enjoy mixing up my projects to keep it fresh and interesting. I currently design for - Frog Dog Studio & My Mind's Eye and have been blessed to be published in Somerset Memories, Artful Blogging, Scrapbook Trends, and Creating Keepsakes.
