This week's Design Team Spotlight is...

Wendi Robinson

Hey everyone. My name is Wendi Robinson and I am a super scrappin addict... Love everything about this art- being creative, including photography and working with my hands, and getting them dirty. I have always loved taking pictures, and loved to display them. I started out, what is extremely basic scrapbooking, in high school, I made some albums for my littlest sister- construction paper, markers, stickers and whatever I could find. Then, I really started scrappin before my son was born, and was introduced to scrapbooking from my sister, Caroline, who started when she went away to school. My first album was of a trip my husband and I went on to New Zealand and Australia. Then really got into it, once my son was born. I had to put my scrappin on hold for a couple of years, when my daughter was born, and in a two bedroom apartment, there was no place left to use. When we got a house, I finally got my own area, and about 4 1/2 years ago, I REALLY got into scrappin and have never turned back. I love it ALL- layouts, cards, mini albums, and love to alter!!!

I married my hottie, Jeremy and have been married for over 10 years now.. WOW.. We have two beautiful and amazing kids, a boy and a girl, who are my total inspiration and what I mainly scrap. We are California natives and are calling Utah home for now.

My favorite things are: itunes/ ipod, Wild Cherry Diet Pepsi, the beach, going for walks, love shopping at Target, pedicures, going to concerts, Lost, ER and The Office, guilty pleasure shows are MTV's The Hills, and The City, and LOVE Depeche Mode.

I have really enjoyed being on the Layout DT team here with Tamara's sketches, they are amazing, and I love to see everyone's take on them. Thank you Tamara for all your creativity, and letting me be on the team. You can always find my latest creations at: http://scrappydayinparadise.blogspot.com/. My scrapbook ahh-ha moment was when I was asked to be on the American Crafts Local DT team, talk about a dream come true.

My favorite sketch to use so far, was a recent one, Layout Sketch #84, it REALLY made me think outside the box, and try something new.
