ALYSSA
My Thoughts Exactly
Hello
everyone, my name is Alyssa and I am 22 years old. I am currently a full time
student and I will be graduating in May with a degree in Liberal Studies and
Mathematics. I recently moved to San Francisco with my wonderful hubby who I
have been married to for a little over a year. We live with our sweet old fur
ball, an 11 year old rat terrier named Princess. I am so lucky to
have a wonderful husband who supports me in my crafting addiction and who has
helped me to start my own stamp line, My Thoughts Exactly Stamps. I am
primarily a card maker but I love paper crafts of every kind! I am SO excited
to be a member of the Shop Pumpkin Spice design team because I absolutely love
the products they carry and the customer service is amazing! I am honored to
represent such a wonderful company. I look forward to inspiring you with some
new and creative ways to use products from Shop Pumpkin Spice!!

Raindrop Echo Designs
My name
is Ann and I live in beautiful Southern California. I have four crazy dogs and a hubby who's
amazingly patient with my cardmaking obsession. I've been cardmaking since May
2009 and I'm happy to be a part of the supportive, encouraging and friendly
papercrafting community. I love to use
stamps, flowers, ribbons, pearls, lace and whatever else you can think of on my
creations, but above all else, I love paper!
You can create a card without stamps and embellishments, but you have to
have paper! I am excited to be a part of
the ShopPumpkinSpice Design Team because, let's face it, it has the LOWEST
prices around and I'm just the type who loves to get the most bang out of her
buck ;) I hope to inspire you with my
creations just as everyone else has inspired me!

I am
thrilled and excited to start another term as a design team member for the
amazing Pumpkin Spice Blog.
I am a
mother of two adorable kiddos (baby #3 due at the end of April) and a wife to a
wonderful husband. I work part-time as a nurse at a busy metro hospital. When
I'm not busy being a mommy and a nurse, I spend time reading and getting caught
up in Netflix movies. My family loves to travel and spend time together, so
there is alway an adventure on the horizon.
I have
been a paper crafter for years, but got my fire rekindled last year when I got
a Cricut for Christmas. I've been crazy crafting ever since. I have a passion
for my Cricut, Cuttlebug and all my stamps. I adore beautiful paper and
embellishments. My favorite things to craft are home decor, mini albums, and
cards. I love learning new techniques and being inspired by others.
May all
your paper crafting dreams come true.

Dorcas Designs
Hi All!
I'm so thrilled to be accepted as part of the Pumpkin Spice Team! A little
about me: My name is Dorcas. I'm married to my very sweet hubby of 18 years, we
have a 14 year old daughter that I homeschool and we live in the countryside of
North Carolina with our two fat cats and 22 talkative ducks. I love to craft
(which is why I'm here! :) but I also love to read, decorate, cook ethnic and
spend time in the vegetable garden looking for something edible under all the
aphids. I look forward to bring you some paper inspiration in the course
of my DT term here at Pumpkin Spice!

I am a work-at-home
mom to two beautiful 9yo fraternal twin girls, both of whom are diagnosed with
Autism. I have been married to my college sweetheart, Doug, for over 20
years. We also have a 21yo cat named Skeeziks, who is the sweetest furry
girl. I am an avid card-maker with a paper addiction. If there were
a show on paper crafting hoarders, I would probably be on it :) I am also
very frugal; I want to get the newest and hottest paper collections, but at a
reasonable price. That's why I Shop Pumpkin Spice!

LENAE
Sugar Gem Crafts
Hi
there I'm Lenae! I live in Washington State with my fiancée and my black lab
fur baby Kalani. I got started in paper crafting about 5 plus years ago when I
was invited to a card party. I lost my job about 3 years ago when the company I
worked for went out of business. Before I lost my job I mainly made cards for
the troops, but once I was jobless I had so much extra time I needed to expand
my horizons. I started really getting into 3D design. Last October for my
birthday I received a Cricut from my mom, which opened up all kinds of new
ideas and avenues. This is when everything exploded for me in the crafting
community. I started my blog just a few months after that and haven't looked
back! I love designing cards, treat goodies and 3d projects! Most of my
projects always come with either a free SVG file and/or tutorial. Crafting has
really changed my life. After going through many losses in my family over the
last few years I started using my crafting as a form of therapy. It really
helped me get through some tough times. I have met some of the nicest, kindest
giving people I have ever met in the crafting community! I am so blessed to
have all of you in my life! I am also blessed to have a fiancée that supports
my addiction.... I mean hobby!

SAUNDRA
Luv Scrapping Together
My name is Saundra.
I am a wife, homeschool mom, and avid papercrafter. I began papercrafting a
little over 3 years ago after I bought my electronic cutting machine. At first
I had thought to only use it for bulletin boards and such for my classroom. I was
teaching in a private school back then. As I began searching for information I
discovered the world of blogging. There is so much inspiration to be had! I
love making cards and have tried my hand at scrapbooking and making home decor
projects. Besides papercrafting I love spending time with my family and am
striving to get fit. That's my 2012 resolution!! I look forward to serving on
the Shop Pumpkin Spice design team and hope to inspire you in some small way.
