Shannon Abblitt

I live on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. I have lived here most of my life and can’t imagine settling anywhere else. I’ve been happily married to my ever patient husband for 16 years and we have three amazing children together. Next to my family, I spend my time as a committee member for a small yet Australian-wide not-for-profit charity, running my small online cottage business/hobby business and being creative. I dabble in acrylics and watercolours, charcoal, soft pastels, alcohol markers and coloured pencils . My choice of pen is Copics and choice of pencil is Prismacolors . I am self-taught and always trying to improve my technique. Most of my spare time is spent crafting as life is so much brighter when it’s full of colour!

All that Glitter is smurphy

"I am an Army wife, mom of four (mostly) grown kids, and currently living in Pensacola, FL in the US where my hubby is stationed.  I have been stamping for about 15 years.  However, I have been a crafter forever!  I remember making Christmas presents for my family when I was pretty young and being very excited to do it all by myself.  Discovering digital stamps and the online crafting world has given me so much inspiration and enabled me to learn so many new techniques.  I love the relaxation of coloring, so most of my cards now use colored images.  My favorite medium is Copic markers, but I am working on learning better techniques for colored pencils.  I am looking forward to inspiring you as part of the Corrosive Challenge team."

Gracias al scrapbook he conocido a personas maravillosas de las cuales he aprendido y  seguiré aprendiendo día a día,  algunas solo las conozco de forma virtual pero  han llegado a formar parte importante en mi vida! Espero dar todo de mí en este nuevo equipo de diseño y las invito a visitar mi Blog.

Hola! Soy y vivo en Costa Rica. Amo a Dios con todo mi corazón y le agradezco el  darme vida hasta hoy. Estoy muy agradecida de tener a mi lado a un hombre especial con el cual comparto mi proyecto de vida. Tenemos mas de 3 décadas de matrimonio, 3 chicas profesionales ya casadas y una preciosa nietita de casi 24 meses que nos tiene  enamorados!!!
El arte ha caminado por mi familia siempre, hay muchos músicos, mis tías y primas bordan, tejen y hacían tarjetas de pergamino y pintaban en tela. Yo misma bordaba en el colegio, pintaba en tela y tejía, afición que tengo hasta el día de hoy, tejiendo para mis hijas, mis sobrinitos y nietita. Hace 5 años me topé con el Scrapbooking y fue amor a primera vista. Hoy día hago tarjetería, cajas y un poquito de Mix Media, pero sobre todo amo confeccionar MA y Layouts. El scrap me ha permitido aprender mas y mas. Conocer chicas y chicos de todo el mundo con quienes comparto la misma pasión.  donde he hecho muy buenas amistades, no tiene precio! Nunca dejes de soñar y que cada bello amanecer te traiga  bendición y paz.

Hi!!! I'm from and live in Costa Rica. I love God with all my heart!!! I'm married with a special man for 30 years. I have 3 daughters (married too) and a nice granddaughter with 24 months! We are fall in love with her.
In my family, there are a lot of artists: musicians, embroiderers, weavers... I embroider at school, then paint on fabric and weaving, hobby that I have to this day, where I have woven for my daughters, my nephews and my Little granddaughter. Five years ago,  I came across the Scrapbooking and it was love at first sight. Today I make cards, boxes and Mix Media, a little, but mostly love make MA and Layouts. The scrap has allowed me to learn more and more. Meeting girls and boys around the world with whom I share the same pasión, where I've become very good friends. Please, never stop dreaming and that every beautiful sunrise will bring blessing and peace.

Linda Miller

 
Hi Everyone! I've reached a pleasant point in my life that I can commit as much time as I like to my art, which most days is a good part of the day. I'm happily married 30 years and have an amazing daughter who is an adult now and they are both very supportive of my art. I live in Beautiful British Columbia, Canada.  We have 2 great dogs and an amazing Show Horse and my daughter has a house full of reptiles. I've always been a crafter, trying something new and loving the old. My love affair with colouring started many years ago with coloured pencils and watercolours and in 2014 it started a new with alcohol markers. My addiction is paper, I just can't have enough! I'm excited for this new adventure as a Design Team member for “The Corrosive Challenge Blog” and look forward to making many new friends.




Finally, thanks everybody and we inagurate this new stage with all our love!!!!
I hope you like our projects and share yours!!!!!
See you with our first challenge on 14th January!!!!!
Have a nice week!!!!

Hugs.
Ana Isabel
