You have seen her boppin’ around the forums, stunning kits in the store and she even scraps awesomely! I am talking about the talented Amber LaBau. She is the master mind behind Stolen Moments Designs (SMD) . I have to be honest and say I wuv her! WUV!!! When she came in as a guest, I fell head over heels with her designs, then her precious spirit and personality settled it for me. I begged the powers that be, please boss, can we, can we huh, huh? Can we keep her?!?! Imagine my happiness when she moved from guest to permanent designer this month!
Here is a little blurb from Amber about her style of scrapping:
I love bold colors and patterns, full pages with lots of (and sometimes just a little) journaling. I love paints and mess, stitches, strings and pocket cards. As a mom of two young boys I don’t use too many “soft and pretty” products, but that doesn’t mean I love them any less.
Here are a few of Amber’s pages that I know you are gonna love and are such great inspiration. The first one I call Smitten, because the cute tag and I am smitten with the precious stitch work, the journaling and the love for her man!
This one, is something I so need to do! We all have seen others do it, but Amber rocks the interview page with her then 5 year old! This is a page that I can only imagine him rolling his eyes at 15 and pretending to be irritated, but inside knowing how much his momma loves him!
