Getting to Know Janie & Sara!!

Please join us in welcoming our April Guest Design Team -- Janie and Sara!!   Janie will be here on Tuesdays and Sara will be here on Thursdays this month.   So we asked them both to answer a few questions so we could all get to know them a little better...

Hi there my name is Janie, I am a mother of 5 boys ages 23 years all the way down to 6 years old. I am married to my best friend Thomas, who supports me unconditionally. I am also the mom to 3 furbabies - my cats. Muffassa is my oldest cat - he is 17 years old and still acts like a kitten. Then we have Pudgey and Sugar, both girls are going on 11 years old. I currently reside in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada, but I was born in Baltimore, Maryland. My favourite movie of all time is Gone With the Wind, favourite Children's movie is How to Train Your Dragon. I am currently a stay at home mom.

Why do you scrapbook?
I scrapbook because I find it theraputic, also I do it to chronicle my family's history so no one will ever forget.

What is the one scrappy item you just can't live without?
Hmm. I would have to say my Bazzill, I always have to have Bazzill on hand.

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
Peacock Blue :)

Do you like your handwriting and do you use it on your layouts?
I like my hand writing and yes I do use it on my layouts

What is your favorite item in the Flamingo Scraps store today?
My favourite item in the store right now is Maya Road Wooden Bingo Motifs Markers - they look very interesting!

My name is Sara Zenger and I live in Northern NY with my husband and our 7 yr old son. I work full time managing a convenient store and spend my free time cooking, camping, working out, scrapbooking, being with friends and family.

Why do you scrapbook?
I scrapbook because I never want to forget everyday life. I love scrapbooking pictures of an ordinary day rather than a holiday.

What is the one scrappy item you just can't live without?
I could not live with out my 3D Foam Tape!!! This is a must for me! I love giving my layouts dimension.

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
I would be purple! I love that color even though I dont wear it or decorate with it.

Do you like your handwriting and do you use it on your layouts?
I dont mind my hand writing. I do like to hand write my journaling so that someday my son will be able to say ' my mom wrote that'. And he will be sure to know its mine because I am bad speller!

What is your favorite item in the Flamingo Scraps store today?
I am in love with the new Toy Box collection from Crate Paper!
