Getting to Know Jeana & Heather!!

Please join us in welcoming our May Guest Design Team -- Jeana and Heather!!   Heather will be here on Tuesdays and Jeana 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...

My name is Heather Landry, and I am from Southern Louisiana. I am a total country girl at heart. I love everything about Louisiana except for the heat and mosquitoes. I have been married for ten years now to a hilarious, annoying, wonderful man. I have three kids: Alexis Ariel (7), Jordan Jasmine (5), and Brandon James (2). The girls chose their own middle names when we adopted them. They both wanted to be princesses!  (I’m pretty sure that makes me the queen right?) Brandon messes up the scheme of things name wise! Being the mother of two special needs kids is always an adventure, one of my favorite things to tell my husband is, “scrapbooking is cheaper than therapy”! I’m not sure he’s buying that anymore though. 

Why do you scrapbook?
I love telling the story of our lives on my scrapbook pages. That’s really what it’s all about for me.

What is the one scrappy item you just can't live without?
I can't live without a great trimmer that cuts clean, even lines. I finally found one that works for me and it makes my heart happy!

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
Lime Green! Kinda bright, artsy, and totally funky!

Do you like your handwriting and do you use it on your layouts?
I've learned to like it because I know how important it is to pass down to future generations. I have cards from my grandmother who passed away that are absolute treasures of mine.

What is your favorite item in the Flamingo Scraps store today?
The Cosmo Cricket Salt Air line. Hands down! It is absolutely adorable. You'll be seeing some of it on my upcoming layouts for my guest design stint here!

More of Heather's work can be seen here on her blog!

I am a SAHM of 4 wonderful children, Mason (4) Kira (2) Frankie (2) and Tre (17 months) so it gets a little crazy around the house sometimes, but I wouldn't have it any other way :D. I am also a proud Army wife to an amazingly kind, understanding, gorgeous husband!! The kids and I currently live in Las Vegas, NV where my husband and I have both lived for most of our lives. We are all excited for the adventures that being an Army family will bring, and I am extremely happy that I have crafting to keep me sane along the way LOL!!!

Why do you scrapbook?
It started out with making cards (way back in 4th grade with my bestie Tiffany Solorio Morgan) haha, who knew we would be the scrappers we are today!! Mostly I scrapbook because 1) it is relaxing for me and 2) I love being able to give  people things that were personally hand crafted just for them.

What is the one scrappy item you just can't live without?
Well, anyone that has seen my scrap space would know this one, fibers!!! I am a fiber addict; be it ribbons, lace, twine, you name it I love it!!

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
I guess I would be my favorite color! Deep olive green (is that even a crayon color hahah!?) because it's flexilbe. It can be subtle or bold, compliments pretty much anything, and is always calming.

Do you like your handwriting and do you use it on your layouts?
I do like my handwriting, and I use it in my layouts quite frequently as I like how versatile it can be (we all know it can change from day to day!!)

What is your favorite item in the Flamingo Scraps store today?
Oh gosh, this is soooo hard for me to answer, there are so many gorgeous things!! I would have to choose the Fancy Pants line Wishful Thinking, I can't get enough of it!! It is so girly, and can be used for girls of all ages!! I love that it's a mix of sophistication and whimsy ♥
