Teachers

The teachers booked so far for the Scrapstars April 2012 Retreat include ....

Lida De Witte

Lida is 48 years old and works as a HRM (Human Resource Management) advisor for a child and youth care organisation. She is married to Sybren and together they have two wonderful adult daughters Loeske and Laura.

Her motto in life is: LAUGH OUT LOUD.

Lida is convinced you should not spend too much time in measuring and doing things precisely. She is an ‘at about’ type of girl, when she is doing a project. She loves shabby chic, grungy and distressing without stress.

For Lida the joy is in the process of creating and having lots of laughs in the workshops.

Jolanda Meurs

Hi there. My name is Jolanda Meurs and you can call me Jolan!

I’m 48 years old and I live with my husband and two boys of 9 and 17 years, in the middle of the Netherlands.

I'm a Design Team member of Bo Bunny and Zva and I work at a scrapbook store. As well as having worked on several books, you can can find my work in the Dutch magazines 'CardsOnly' and 'Scrapbookmagazine'.

The Dutch magazine Kadoosjes (gift boxes) is a my baby, where I make layouts, cards, mini albums and crazy little things, but I prefer to make small gifts for others filled with soap, that I also make myself.

I started paper crafting many, many years ago.

A few times a year we have special events and then I teach as a Bo Bunny girl.

Read more about me on the Bo Bunny Blog http://bobunny.blogspot.com/2011/08/get-to-know-jolanda-meurs.html

My style is hard to describe. I like to add flowers, buttons, charms, swirls, crazy things on my work! but I don't like using many bright colors.

Visit my blog http://www.jolandameurs.blogspot.com or you can find me on facebook too. I’m looking forward to meeting you all, have a great day end enjoy every moment of your life.

Emma Trout

Hello I’m Emma, a full-time mother and wife juggling all that life throws at me with my passion for crafting. . I live in the beautiful countryside of the UK with my husband and my two teenage boys-who have embraced my hobby, ignored the mess I make when creating and enjoyed the journey with me!

I am primarily a scrapbooker and usually work in A4 format. My style...well it's instantly recognisable to everybody else but me! I love to layer and embellish my pages and use doodling and paint too.

Last year I enjoyed making 'off the page projects' too. From cake stands to Rubik's Cubes, you name it I was trying to make it out of paper. One of the greatest things about my hobby...the great people I have met and the wonderful places I have visited.

When I am not scrapping I can be found walking my crazy dog, burning the dinner and tackling the jungle that is my garden. I am a design team member for Webster's Pages and The Color Room. I am thrilled to be joining you at the Scrapstars event and I am sure we will have a great time.
