A mini-book by Jackie
We’re so excited to introduce you all to the fifth member of our fantastic design team, Jackie Laing. She’ll be making her Crazy Daisy debut with our August kit, so make sure you check back to see all of her wonderful creations. Until then, here’s a little bit about Jackie.
“Hi, I am Jackie! I live in The Peace Country, BC Canada with my wonderful Husband Greg, and our beautiful daughter Sasha. I work full time as a creative writer for a Radio and Television Station. I have always loved crafts! When I was younger I would make collages from my teen magazines and plaster them all over my bedroom door! And about four years ago I stumbled across scrapbooking when I made a scrapbook of my wedding … I was instantly addicted!
Scrapbooking is my creative outlet that keeps me grounded. When I am not scrapbooking I love to spend time with my wonderful family, read, blog and play wii! I am honoured to be part of the Crazy Daisy DT, and I look forward to getting to know all of you. As we share our love of scrapping, and make some beautiful creations along the way!”
1. I can’t imagine my life without … Of course my family and friends and also SCRAPBOOKING! It is a huge stress reliever! It relaxes and excites me all at the same time! And it is a great way to spend a Friday night with my teenage daughter … I love having Mother-Daughter Scrap Nights!
2. My least favorite chore is … cleaning the bathroom and grocery shopping!
3. I would love to win a shopping spree to … a cool Scrapbooking store/online store, like Crazy Daisy Kit Co. Plus That Girls Fashion, it is a cute little local store that has the cutest clothes and purses!
4. My must have treat and music when scrapbooking is … extreme cheddar goldfish crackers and Reese pieces! I know it sounds weird, but the sweet and salty combo tastes amazing! So yummy! And I love listening to Country music! Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood or Sugar Land…I think my addiction comes from working at a Country Music Radio Station!
5. When scrapbooking, I love to use … unique embellishments and cool items from around the house, I love scrapping “GREEN” and using nontraditional items on my scrapbook projects! And of course I can never have to many buttons … I have a weakness for buttons!
6. My favorite creative project is … making mini books hands down! They are fun to make and are the perfect gift for family and friends!
7. I thought I would never … be a creative writer, and write commercials for a living! I am blessed to have a job that I truly love!
8. My worst habit is … biting my nails and drinking to much pop! I am trying to break both of these bad habits.
9. If I were a superhero, my super-power would be … to freeze time for myself, and anyone else I choose! This way I can have unlimited time to scrap, and spend time with my family!
10. You would never guess it, but I … am a closet Beanie Baby collector! I have over 110 Beanies! I love these little cuties filled with beans! My favourites are Peanut and the Bride and Groom Bear!
