AGNUS KASPRZAK aka AGA...

Hi, my name is Agnus Kasprzak aka Aga. I'm a stay at home mum to 3 gorgeous boys from the Penrith area of Sydney. My boys are aged 15, 9 and almost 2 and give me plenty of inspiration to create a variety of boy pages. I have been scrapping for almost 6 years and am still loving every moment!

KAREN WATSON...
Hi,
I’m Karen Watson and I live on the beautiful Northern Tablelands of NSW, Australia. I have been married to my husband Andrew for 25 years and we have two boys (22 and 17 so not really boys!).

I started scrapbooking almost 5 years ago and I am so grateful to have found this wonderful hobby. It provides me with a little ‘me’ time each week and gives me the chance to indulge my need for creative expression. I love having the opportunity to not only document our lives now, but to revisit and record important events from when my boys were younger. I have been very fortunate to have been published in Scrapbooking Memories and Scrapbook Creations and in 2009 was honoured to be selected as a Scrapbooking Memories Master.

If I were to define my scrapping style, it would be grungy and layered with a little ink or paint (and quite often both) usually thrown in. I love add texture to my layouts with cardboard, fabrics and stitching. I generally journal in my own handwriting as I believe this is an important part of who I am. My layouts usually contain a story about an event in our lives which I want to document, so that we can remember those special and everyday moments in the years to come.


I scrap while I am listening to music and everyone else is busy doing their own thing! When I am not scrapping I am teaching fulltime, spending way too much time on the computer visiting blogs, gardening, at the gym or reading

KATHLEEN BLOMMESTEIN...
Hi. I'm Kathleen,

I have been scrapping for about 5 years. I am lucky enough to live near the beach in Melbourne, Australia.
My normal scrapping subjects are my three children my husband and our many pets!! We spend alot of the time at the beach and my children love going camping.
I work part time in the social welfare field, hate the colour purple, love icecream ( who doesn't?) and scrapping is my creative outlet.
My style is forever evolving, but I love using inks, paints, making my own embellies and making a mess! I love the idea of creating ablums for my children to look back on when they grow older.

I am also running Scrap that Song and Challenge Heaven as an administrator only on both sites which keeps me busy but i do love to create as well.

I have long held a desire to be a part of STB and was so excited to find out i was having a boy as i knew i would finally get a chance to scrap boys layouts!

Currently my style is a bit grungy and i love mixing it up with paint and love to include embellie clusters on my layouts.

KERRYN LAWSON...
Hi, I’m Kerryn.

I live in sunny (most of the time) South Australia with my husband and two children (well three if you count the dog ).

I have been scrapbooking for about 4 1/2 years now. It is a hobby that I love with a passion that has been good to me in so many ways. I have made many wonderful friends through this hobby too.

I don’t have a particular style as such but I love layers, I love distressing and I love concentrating on the details. I switch between 12x12 and 8.5x11 depending on which way the wind is blowing. Having both a son and a daughter means I get to indulge in pretty, girly layouts as well as grungy, fun boy layouts.

You can check out my blog (www.kerrynlawson.blogspot.com) for more samples of my work.

GENEVIEVE LEBLANC...

My name is Geneviève Leblanc, I am 35 and I live in Quebec city a french-speaking town of Canada. My husband and I have three little boys, Nathaël (7), Jean-Félix (5) and Florent (3).

I have always been a artistic person, I used to dance, sing, play music, etc. Six years ago, I discovered the scrapbooking and since, I developed a real addiction.

My style is marked by sweetness, rich of humor and full of boy's photos… !! I like any kinds of challenges but mostly sketches. I am currently part of a design team for a online store, Scrap’folie.

I am a scientist in the day, a superwoman in evening and a scrapper by night ;-)

I am so proud to be a designer fo Scrap The Boys, I hope that my work will provide inspiration for everyone !
