We're very excited to welcome our winners to the 2010 Elite Team and would like to introduce them to you over the next week. First up is the very talented Annelie Maddock, who wowed us with her beautiful entries. About Annelie:
I was born in Sweden 37 years ago, but I have lived in New Zealand since 2003. I met the man who is now my fabulous, supportive husband and the father of my two daughters after only six weeks here, so now I'm stuck... But I love it!!My motivation for my scrapbooking is my kids. I want to save all those memories, all those thoughts. If something happens to me or their dad, I want them to KNOW how I/we feel about them. I also want them to know how important our everyday life together is. But I'm not only doing it for my family, I also do it for ME. I need the creativity, I LOVE the smell of new products and I love picking new photos for my creations. I try to vary my style. At the moment I do a lot of shabby chic with lots of stuff on my LO's, but also love, love, love doing simple LO's with a lot of white space. I have two girls, so a lot of pink gets used, but I also love the "typical boy colour combos", so there's a lot of blue/brown/green going on too. I’m a big fan of distressing and inking, and have a hard time staying away from the die-cut shaped LO's lately... So, I really think my style varies a lot. It depends on mood, photos and products I guess!!
Stay tuned as we introduce the other talented members of the new Elite Team over the coming week.
