Hello Memory Maze Fans please welcome our new Design Team Members. We had so many applicants which made it hard to choose, in the end we increased the amount of members from 10 to 15 so we could bring you some amazing talent. 



My name is Lucy Ohanyan, I’ve been married to an amazing man for the past 15 years, and we have three incredible children together, Christina, Juliana, and Christopher, you’ll be seeing them on many of my layouts. I’ve lived most of my life in sunny California, but have been fortunate enough to have travelled quite extensively throughout the world. I’ve always been very crafty, but only recently ventured into the scrapbook world and I’ve been hooked ever since. My style is very vintage, with a mixture of shabby chic and a bit of romance. I’m very fortunate to have a vast amount of old family pictures and so I find myself doing heritage layouts often. I’m extremely excited to be a part of the Memory Maze Design Team and look forward to all that it brings. You can check out my work over at my blog at:

I am a self-confessed Craftaholic and spend all my spare time making all things crafty such as cards and jewellery, I also crochet and knit. I am lucky enough to have been featured in the Create and Craft magazine with three of my cards and other publications. I also Design for Craftwork Cards and now the fabulous Memory Maze. I Have two wonderful Children who have both made it through university. My son's doing his Phd now and My daughter's working and also volunteering for the police.
I Have a passion for paper crafting and love to spend most of my time doing just that. I would love to bring out my own range of stamps as I also draw and use that alot in my designs, my family all create, my brother being a wildlife artist and my son writes creatively, my daughter draws and paints with a more Manga style.
You will always find me with Inky fingers and am always happy to blog about my latest craft room adventures I would love to receive your comments so feel free to chat to me.

My name is Hilde Aaslund, aka Scoobie, and I am a paper craft addict!
I live in Norway with my hubby, two boys 10 &13, two cats, a dog, two budgies and FIL. I work full time as an engineer at construction sites and spend my leisure time running this place called home, spend time outdoors and craft with paper.
I started my paper craft career as a card maker in 2005, but transformed to a layout scrapper a year later. My main scrap subjects are - quite naturally- my family, but I also scrap about subjects found in our everyday life – the pets, our friends, funny signs and anything that makes my day special . I still enjoy making card, and haven’t bought one for years.
Chipboards are one my favourite embellishments, so guess who is beyond thrilled to be on the DT for Memory Maze! I hope my love for chipboard shows in my creations and that I can inspire you to find new ways to use these lovelies.

"Hi! I'm Victoria Freze from Odessa, Ukraine. I had so many hobbies before but scrapbooking is more than just a hobby, it's a passion that becomes stronger year after year. I'm both scrapbooker and cardmaker, I also love to create mini-albums. In my projects I use mostly bright colors, layers and clusters. My inspiration comes from nature, music, relationship, photography and everything around me. Scrapbooking helps me to go deeply to my thoughts to find there new dreams, to set goals and to achieve them."

My name is Amanda Lawrence and I am a WFHM to two gorgeous little munchkins, Cody (5) and Ellah (20mths). By day, I juggle my mummy duties with the running of my own online embellishment store. I have been scrapbooking for about 5 years now and am really starting to feel my own style developing. I love using pretty things to embellish and for me I think it is more about the creative process than the memory recording, for me that is just the added bonus.

I have been scrapbooking for a number of years now, but only in the past two years put myself out in the big wide world. In doing so I have gained a number of design teams spots. I teach and work locally at our scrapbooking store which I love. I have a busy life with 6 children and foster children to. I'm a mum/wife friend by day but once those kiddies are all tucked in I'm found in "my space" crafting. I love it, I love challenges. I can do clean and simple to detailed and totally over the top, but I LOVE ink and off the page projects.

Hi! My name is Misty Willis, and I LOVE chipboard! I looked through your shop and WOW! Gorgeous stuff in there! The ideas are already stirring in my head! I am Mom to 5 beautiful kids, ages 7,10,12,14, &16 and I have been married to a wonderful man for 19 years... I spend my time photographing them or scrapping those photos. With five crazy kids, the kodak moments are always in abundance around m house!
I also love to make off the page projects. I have been scrapping for over 16 years and crafting for even longer. Scrapbook layouts, altered photo frames, boutique hair bows, crocheted winter hats with braids...pretty much every craft, I love. I am a true "Do It Yourself~er" LOL!
I would love the opportunity to design with your chipboard designs! :) Thank you for taking the time to look over my application. Have a wonderful day!

I am a stay at home mom (my children give me
wonderful pictures to scrap with), I was a teacher (high school science)
before I stayed at home, and I love to scrapbook!! My first love is my
family, they mean everything to me. My second love is crafting, especially
scrapbooking. I started to scrapbook about in 2006 when my oldest child was
10 months old. I did a few pages here and there for his baby book, but
nothing serious. Then my baby girl Kristen died in 2009, and my way of
dealing with her death was to scrap; at first it was mostly pages about her
to release my anger, frustration, and pain and now it is my passion. This
is when I really fell in love with this craft. I feel that I even dream of
page layouts and techniques in my sleep, and when I wake up I can't wait to
try them out!! So I made a permanent scrap room in my house, I starting to
teach classes at a local scrapbook store, then at my house, and now at our
local Michaels store to feed my addiction and to share my knowledge to the
craft!! I find that scrapping is the best therapy out there.

I believe that every person has a story to tell,
Every photo captures a moment,
Scrapbooking brings the past & present together -for the future.

My family and friends are my sources of inspiration and are quite accomadating to my slight obsession with scrapbooking!!
Along with my husband, we have 2 sons, 2 daughters-in-law and 3 grandsons and 2 granddaughters whom I all love dearly......and they let me take lots & lots of photos of them!!!

I’m Sharm from the very sunny Malaysia.. I started papercrafting end 2009, after I had my first lil princess. It started off as a bid to keep myself occupied while being a SAHM. I love all things handmade & indulge in a variety of handmade hobbies that include card making, scrapping and jewelry making, but paper crafting is my first love! (after my hubby that is *lol*). I’m a versatile crafter.

I love vintage (..truly, madly, deeply..) and my style often ranges from vintage to shabby chic to sometimes clean and simple. I have also been published in Cards Magazine, Create : Mini Albums and Create : for the Home magazines and occasionally teach at a LSS here in Malaysia.

My name is Tracey Campbell and I have been scrapping for about eight years now, around full time work in the Royal Australian Navy, being a mother to two beautiful but cheeky girls, a wife to an understanding husband and a house hold of fur babies. I discovered scrapping when a friend dragged me to a beginners class and I the bug hit me bad. I have been on various design teams for online and bricks and mortar scrapbooking stores. Right now I am on a great little online store's design team at Mystical Scrapbooks and I am also a regular designer and writer for The Australian Scrapbooking Ideas Magazine. I am what I call and eclectic scrapbooker I love all styles, products and techniques. I tend change my style to suit my photos and the products that I am using.

I live in a small town in Australia called Tumut. I have lived my
whole life basically in this country town and I love the peace and
serenity which surrounds us. I am married to my school friend
sweetheart Andrew and we share three beautiful daughters- Kayley,
Emma and Bridget. I have been scrapping since 2007 and I love a great
challenge and enjoy trying different techniques .
I love to cut up pp and use a lot of chipboard and embellishments on my layouts.
