Welcome to Posh Designs Scrapbook Store! My name is Michelle and I am a proud SAHWM to an awesome, supportive husband of 5 years and wonderful, adorable 2 year old son.

How I got hook onto scrapbooking was sort of a delayed reaction for me. Back in the Summer of 2007, my Mom held a Baby Shower in my honour as my Husband and I were expecting our first Son. 

One of best gifts I received was from my Aunt Marg, my first scrapbooking kit and album! I remember clear as day, all the coordinating papers and embellishments, my dreams of how, what I would record. 

Then somehow my scrapbooking dreams were put off even when my son was born in November 2007. That would all change in March 2008 when my desire to record my son's life journey into this world was resurrected.

How you might ask? One day I was watching The Shopping Channel (in Canada) and a segment on Scrapbooking. Later on that day, my husband watched with me another show airing and together we knew this was something for me to get into.

Today I enjoy all sorts of papercrafting from cardmaking to gifting. Although my first passion is scrapbooking, I am finding new ways to incorporate stamping onto my projects.

Hi everyone!! My name is Melissa Gzik I have an amazing fiance, we have been together for about 6 years and he is the greatest guy in the world!!! 

He takes me to what ever scrapbook store that I want go to!! What's really funny is when I am about to get out of the car he says "now remember that you have everything" then I say "but I don't have every color" LOL So if you can't tell already I LOVE to shop!! 

I have been scrapbooking for about 8 years. I scrapbook or do something scrapbook related everyday, I love going to see what people have made on there blogs and I love watching YouTube!

I mostly work on 12x12 LOs, I do make mini albums as well. What is sad is I am very behind in my own scrapbooks, I tend to make more scrapbooks for family and friends then I do for myself which is good because it helps me use up some of my scrapbook goodies so that I can buy more :)!  

What I have a hard time making is cards, they are so small and I can't get every thing that I want to put on the card to fit!! :( So I am challenging myself this year to work on my card making skills (it's hit and miss right now)!

Bonjour, je m'appelle Kim Larivière, j'ai 23 ans. Je viens de la campagne en Mauricie, Québec. Je suis partie de chez moi très tôt pour cause d'emmerdement total dans ma ville. Je rêvais des grands building de Montréal et de liberté. Je suis donc déménagé avec mon chum dans cette grande ville qui me faisait tant rêver. J'y ai fait mes études en graphisme.

Au bout de quelques temps je me suis rendue compte que la ville ou je voulais tant vivre m'a vraiment apportée beaucoup d'ennuis, vol de ma voiture, de mon appartement, et j'ai subi 1 tentative d'enlèvement, 2 vols à main armé dans le commerce ou je travaillais. Et j'ai été attaqué une fois. 

Alors quand j'ai appris que j'étais enceinte moi et mon conjoint avons décidé de nous "exiler" la où c'est tranquille. Nous avons acheté une belle grande maison dans le fin fond de la campagne et la vie se passe calmement. Nous avons eu par la suite eu 2 autres enfants.

Mes 3 petits amours et mon grand, son ma source d'inspiration. J'ai découvert le scrapbooking un peu par hasard, sans vraiment savoir que ça existait lors de mes études au cégep.

J'ai fait pendant longtemps du scrap digital en créant moi-même mes kits. Par la suite j'ai eu le coup de foudre pour les papiers Basic Grey, My Mind's Eyes et Magenta. Ce fût trop pour moi. J'ai laissé le scrapbooking digital de coté pour me consacrer au "vieux scrap"!

Je n'ai toutefois pas tourné le dos à ma formation de graphiste. Je créé encore beaucoup, que ce soit de la conception de logos, de cartes d'affaires ou autres. Je reste active! Et j'ai une tonne de .svg pour utiliser avec ma chère Cricut adoré! Alors me voici me voilà dans toute ma simplicité! Au plaisir!

Hello everyone! My name is Racquel Brown and I am a wife, mother, teacher and passionate scrapbooker. My obsession began in 2004 right after my daughter was born.

My husband is photographer and when our daughter was about 3 weeks old he took some black and white photos of her. When I saw them, I couldn't just put them in an album... they were much too beautiful for that.

I had to find a way to showcase not just the photos, but the memories that went with them. It was not too long after  that I was immersed into the world of scrapbooking and I have been loving it ever since!

Five years later, my passion has grown to include altering anything I can find, making albums and other personalized gifts for my family and friends.

Whenever I look at my creations, especially those I make for my children, I think of how awesome it is to know that these treasures will live on and be enjoyed by generations to come.

My Name is Amy Bender and I live in the state of Connecticut in the US.  I have a great family who keep me very busy.  My son, Gavin is 7 and in the second grade.  Elizabeth will be 4 in May and is into everything.  My husband Christian is the love of my life and is from Germany.  We also have two very silly cats who think they are human as well.

I have been in the Arts all of my life.  My mother and grandmother started me at a very young age with sewing and painting.  Together we explored every aspect of Arts and Crafts.  I am currently doing the same with my children.  I eventually went on to school for Studio Arts, Book Arts, Color Theory, and Graphic Design studies.    I have worked in Architecture as a Residential Designer.  I later went on to own my own Scrapbook Store for a few years.  That was great challenging fun!

I have been scrapbooking in the traditional sense for over 7 years now.  My son was my inspiration to start.  I had always felt that my artwork was enough, but then my story became important.  So here I am scrapping and loving it!

I enjoy exploring the boundaries of products and seeing what I can do with them.  I love to cut up papers and to mix patterns and textures.  I am always willing to try anything at least once!

I am looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Melina Borrero, cat lover, Project Runway fan, photographer, scrapbooker, teacher, and vegetarian.  Living with four cats and my amazing fiance, soon to be husband June 2010, gives me great joy.  I appreciate all the opportunities I have been given; living in Florida is one of them.

I started taking pictures and making scrapbooks when I was in middle school.  Since then, I have create many albums, and have been on several design teams.  Recently, I was published as a writer, photographer, and scrapbooker in Bodas USA magazine.

Life is a series of moments that can be quiet or be filled with laughter.  Creating scrapbook pages can be quiet and sometimes very funny for me  I always hope people enjoy my pages as much as I do.

My name is Charlene Driggs.  I share my life with my wonderful and supportive husband and a crazy Goldendoodle named Chloe.  We have two grown sons, one beautiful daughter-in-law, and 2 precious grandchildren.

I’ve always been involved in some type of craft.  I enjoy sewing, embroidery, counted cross-stitch, crochet and making paper flowers.  I especially love to cook and bake.  I mill my own wheat and make my own bread and flour mixtures.  Many years ago, one of our friends referred to me as the “cookiebaker” because I bake hundreds of cookies every Christmas season as gifts for all our friends and neighbors.  The name stuck and is my avatar on my blog and stamping network sites. 

I began my stamping and paper art obsession about 7 yrs. ago.  I’m a self-taught paper artist, learning primarily online through other wonderful bloggers and stamping networking sites.  As a former Stampin’ Up hobby demonstrator, I’ve had the privilege of addicting…um, make that teaching some of my closest friends the love of paper art.

My favorite paper art projects are gift sets.  I love to take an ordinary everyday item and turn it into something beautiful with the use of paper and ink and then combine it with a beautiful card or tag.  My style would probably be considered eclectic although I get the most pleasure from the more elegant styles.

I believe each day is a gift waiting to be opened.  Sometimes good, sometimes bad but always interesting.

Hi everyone! My name is Lynne Woolgar and I live in Vero Beach, Florida. I have three adult children, one daughter Ashley, and two sons Kevin & Daniel, and a 1 1/2yr old grand-son Mason.  I have been an arts & crafts fanatic for about 22 years. It all started with my grand-mother Nini. She made the most remarkable crafts you’ve ever seen, from crocheting to painting to hooked rugs to sculptures. She was never afraid to try her hand at something new!!  I grew up wanting to be just like her!

I started scrapbooking in the early ‘90s, and although I enjoyed the process, I made very few layouts. It took me 5 years to get one album done! Fast forward to 2004; a divorce and a major move back to Florida changed all of that. Funny how, my scrapbook supplies were the only arts & crafts items that I brought with me!! I worked on a few pages during the next few years, but concentrated more on home decorating, sewing, and floral arranging.

While out shopping one day, I picked up a magazine that inspired me to venture into a new art form – collages!! Still working on that one! Of course, if you are making collages, you need pretty papers, stamps, inks, all of the lovely supplies you need to do scrapbooking! Boy, was there a lot of new stuff out there, I was totally amazed at all of the great and innovative products on the market!! At about the same time, my daughter Ashley, announced that she was pregnant!! Well, that was it….I had to document her pregnancy and the baby shower, and the birth, and the footprints, and the smile, and the…….everything!!! Now, I’m hooked!

In the last 2 years, I have learned so many new techniques, and found so many wonderful products, that I don’t think I’ll ever catch up! Scrapbooking has become a way of life for me. Not only is it my creative outlet and escape, it has also helped me to regain some sanity in my hectic life. My style? It varies quite a bit, from child themes, to very simple layouts, to vintage romantic chic. I love to mix the modern with the vintage style. And, I’m always looking for new ideas and techniques to try out, and to pass on, of course!!

My name is Tiffany Morgan. I am 24. I live in San Diego, California. I am a SAHM to a Wonderful son. My son gives me so much joy. My husband is amazing. We have been together for almost 5 years. Getting to this point in my life has been crazy but an amazing journey!

I have been paper crafting for a little over 2 years. I started out making cards. I was and still am addicted to learning new techniques and expanding what i know. I picked up making mini albums about a year after that... then i ventured into full 12x12 layouts. i love all of it! Every project has its own ups and downs. The end result is rewarding.  

I love seeing other peoples creations. Every scrapbook page, card, and project i see either on a blog or a community inspires me in some way. With a 3 year old it is difficult to find time to craft, but i have a wonderful husband that on most weekends will take over so i can live at my desk!!

Paper crafting is my therapy. I don't have a specific style, if I like something i will buy it and some how incorparate it into a project. I think everyone has a product that they love the most. Mine is ribbon, lace and fibers!! I can not get enough of them. 

I feel so honored to be a part of this DT. I hope we can all inspire you in some way.
