(in alphabetical order)

Suzanne Austin
Assistant Design Team Coordinator

Hi!  My name is Suzanne Austin.  I’m a SAHM of 3 kiddos living on the Gulf Coast in Alabama.  I’ve been married to my wonderful husband for 15 plus years and feel very blessed to have each and every one of them in my life.  I began scrapping shortly after the birth of my son (5yrs ago) and like most haven’t looked back!  It wasn’t hard to become completely immersed in scrapbooking, the process, the art, the design-it simply AMAZES me STILL the talent in this industry.  My style is pretty versatile (and still ever evolving), but I tend to lean toward the grungy, painty, and inky side of scrapping; I’ve also done some mixed media and incorporate that into scrapping as well.  I love the enrichment (and therapy ) this hobby has to lend and will likely be sticking with it for some time to come!

Laura Baldwin

Hi!  I’m Laura Baldwin and I currently reside in Southern Mississippi.  I’ve lived in the south now for almost two years and have enjoyed learning about the Gulf Coast and all that it has to offer!  I am a military wife and mother.  I’m also an RN but due to my husband’s recent deployment, we decided it was best for me to stay at home for awhile with our girls. Almost 12 years ago I fell absolutely in love with scrapbooking.  My style has evolved over the years from using stickers (lots of them) to making my own embellishments using the designs on the paper to accent my layouts. I have a scrapbooking style that is easy, clean lines and shows that you don’t have to spend a lot of time or money (budget friendly) to have completed pages.  I also like new challenges.  I love to learn and use new product.

Susan Fairchild
Design Team Coordinator

Hi, I’m Susan Fairchild and I’m a wife of 15 years and mother to four amazing children.  I have been an avid scrapbooker for 10 years now. I use scrapbooking as my main creative outlet and have recently started dabbling in mixed media projects. My style has evolved from clean and simple lines to trendy, and I can’t wait to discover where I’m headed next.  Scrapbooking gives me that creative get away that rejuvenates my spirit and gives me the mental break I need to keep up with my busy family.  I am an outgoing and gregarious person that looks for any opportunity to share my love of scrapbooking and crafting.

Katie Hilyer

My name is Katie Hilyer and I have been scrapping for about 11 years,and my style has evolved over time, but I will never lose sight of what the most important part about all of it is – preserving family memories for others to see and share! I love that about scrapbooking and that’s probably why it will be my lifelong passion.

Sherry Livingston

I’m Sherry Livingston, and I have been doing scrapbooking for about 14 years. I started out using Creative Memories and their methods. Over the years, I have progressed to doing pages with 3-D techniques, adding glitter, ink, chalk, and of course the cricut. Scrapbooking is my way of relaxing and enjoyment. I like to learn new techniques and share them with others. I think working with others and sharing ideas makes scrapbooking more interesting.

Sam Pirkle

My name is Sam Pirkle and I’m married with two grown children. I started scrapbooking 15 years ago and try to craft as often as possible during the week and a lot on the weekends. I love to meet new people, learn new techniques, and be inspired to take my crafting to a new level. It’s a great pleasure to be part of an inspiring group of ladies that share the same love of paper crafting that I do.

Monica Yelverton
Card Specialist

I’m Monica Yelverton and I am a single mom of 2 wonderful teenagers, Jarrod and Kennedy.  I work full time as an Anemia Management Nurse.  I never leave home without a book, and I love music!  Being a 5 year breast cancer surviour, I have to say ” Think Pink”.  I have been scrapbooking for about 10 years and have loved every minute of it!  My specialty is card making and collage. This will be my second term with Scrapping Frenzy and I can’t wait to get started!
