Hi, my name is Raquel Borges. I currently live in Sacramento, California and am attending California State University, Sacramento in pursuit of my Nursing Degree as well as a Bachelors Degree in Public Health with a concentration in Community Education. I am originally from Tracy, California where my family owns a small dairyfarm business where I help out when I am at home visiting. When I am not reading a textbook or studying for an exam I enjoy stamping and scrapping. I have been stamping since 2007 and scrapbooking since 2005. I often find myself reaching for my stamps when I know there are other things I should be doing but a lot of the time my stamping is a type of therapy and a stress reliever. I love stamping and I love sharing my creations with others and I hope I can inspire others through my work as much as many others inspire me. Feel free to visit my blog and leave me a quick note, I love hearing from those who stop by to visit and I love being able to visit them in return.

My name is Samantha and I am completely obsessed with paper crafting. I spend a great amount of my free time in my scraproom playing with pretty papers and stamps. I just love everything about paper crafting -the colors, the supplies, the designing process. I am a daily craft blogger at Scrapmaster's Paradise and I am also a Stampin' UP Demonstrator. Aside from paper crafting, I am a full time college student double majoring in Biochemistry and Psychology with a Pre-med concentration. My fiance and I live with our five dogs in a small town in Tennessee.

My name is Jennifer Scull, and I am 45 years old. I have been married for 23 years to my college sweetheart, David. We have 3 teenage sons who bring us such joy! We live in a lovely town in northeast Ohio that sees LOTS of snow every winter. Quite a change for this Texas girl, but oh, I do love it! I have been stamping and scrapping for about 10 years now. I started as a scrapbooker, but got bitten by the stamping bug 6 or 7 years ago when I went to a home party. I haven't been the same since!!! ;) My style is more shabby/vintage, and I love love love to distress everything! and embellies, goodness, I can't imagine creating something that doesn't have ribbons, buttons, flowers, or some great bit of texture added! But you will find a bit of whimsy thrown in just for fun, too! I'm a firm believer in the fun of life - it only takes one look at my bright blue toenails to tell you that! :) With my crazy hubby, 3 wacky teenage boys, 2 labradors, and 2 cats (plus the numerous strays that we feed), God is always bringing plenty of WHIMSY into my life, as you can well imagine. But I wouldn't trade a single moment of it for anything. and hopefully you will see that reflected in my crafting.

I'm a wife to a rather understanding husband who wonders how on earth I'll ever use all the papercrafting stuff I've accumulated. I'm a mother to 2 great kids, Andrew 22 doesn't live at home anymore but keeps in touch weekly & Lindsey 15 who just started sophomore year & plays the trumpet in band. I've been papercrafting since 2001 when I went to my first stamp party thinking it was a postage stamp party only to later become ever so addicted to this craft. I work full time as a Supervisor for an insurance company & have been there for 16+ years, papercrafting is my stress reliever.

Louise -- Blog | Gallery
My name is Louise and I live in beautiful New Zealand. I am 33 and have two boys aged 3 and 2 and have another baby on the way. I am a stay at home mum and I am kept busy by my boys and looking after the animals on our farmlet. I have been scrapbooking since 2005 and cardmaking and stamping since 2007. I really enjoy papercraft as it is a great outlet for my creative side and cards are relatively quick to produce and provide me with a quick "creativity fix". I am looking forward to working with Randa and the members of the Doodle Beans Design Design Team.
