Karen Shand
I am
extremely excited to become a
member of the Scrappin' Sports
Design Team. I am the proud
mother to three wonderful
children, Victoria, Alex and
Madalyn. I have been married to
my wonderful, supportive
husband, Mark, for 17 years. My
family is my inspiration and the
source of most of my layouts. I
started scrapbooking 10 years
ago when my daughter was little.
I love to see the looks on my
childrens faces when I create a
layout for them. |

Carolyn Lontin
My name is Carolyn Lontin. I
have been married to Rick since
January 1997; we have one son,
Seth and two crazy dogs!
We live in gorgeous
Colorado, in a suburb just
south of Denver. We are less
than 20 minute drive to the
mountains and love to go there
often!
I began scrapping in
October 2001 to preserve my
son's childhood memories and
it quickly became an
obsession! I love capturing my
family's "real" moments both
in my photos and in my
journaling on my layouts and
projects. I have found the
creative outlet of scrapping
to be incredibly relaxing and
quite addictive, which is
shocking to the previously
dominate non-artistic side of
me! Over the past few years, I
have had the honor of having
my work published in major
publications!
Since April 1994, I have
been a Human Resource Director
for a manufacturing company.
I also enjoy spending time
with family and friends,
photography, exercising,
cheering on my son’s many
sports teams, mini-adventures
exploring in the mountains,
playing with our dogs, and
reading.
I
am super excited to be a part
of the Scrappin' Sports & More
Design Team!

Scrapping has become both my
obsession and my therapy and I
am thrilled to be designing for
Scrappin’ Sports & More! With 7
active kids in every sport
imaginable it couldn’t be a more
perfect fit! I have been
married to the love of my life
for almost 23 years and we live
in the beautiful Pacific
Northwest just north of Seattle,
Washington. We are a very active
family and I am never without a
fun photo opportunity! I fell
in love with scrapbooking about
8 years ago and it literally was
the missing piece of my puzzle.
I feel more complete, calm and
fulfilled now that I found this
wonderful creative outlet. I
enjoy creating all types of
pages, cards and albums and I
struggle to put a label to my
style. I try to keep an open
mind based on what the paper and
pictures “feel like” to me. I
like to step outside my comfort
zone and try new things with a
wide variety of products. One
of my favorite things about this
fabulous hobby is the instant
connection you feel with other
people that share this obsession
– a wonderful instant family of
friends! I am very excited to
work with all the great folks at
Scrappin’ Sports & More! |

I am a mild-mannered social
worker by day and wife, soccer
mom, PTA Vice President,
beagle-owner by night. Oh
yeah...and sometimes I scrap! I
started scrapping in 2001 after
I saw a scrapbook album in the
gift shop while on a cruise to
the Bahamas. After that, I
started going to crops, found
message boards and scrapbook
stores and the rest is history.
I have 2 children and have been
married for the past 16 years to
my best friend. We have 2 cute,
albeit ornery, beagles that keep
us busy...but are seriously fun
to scrap! We reside in Fort
Wayne, Indiana. I am truly
honored to be scrapping for
Scrappin Sports and More. My 6
year old son thinks it is
especially cool that they have a
video game line...what could be
a more perfect fit? |

Peggy Nardini
My name is Peggy Nardini. I am so excited
to be a part of the Scrappin'
Sports and More design team.
My husband, Leo and I have
been married for 23 years
and are the parents of 18
year old boy/girl twins,
Michael & Micah. Our kids
recently began their
freshman year in college so
we are now empty nesters,
with the exception of our
dog who also frequently gets
to be the subject of
layouts.
I started scrapbooking when
my kids were in 4th
grade. Much of my
scrapbooking has been
focused on family
events, school activities
and sporting events. Living
in a small community, our
kids were lucky enough to be
able to participate in a
variety of sports, year
round - my son was a 5 sport
letter winner in high
school, my daughter a 4
sport letter winner as well
as school activities and
clubs. They have both
continued on with their
athletic careers, my son
playing football and my
daughter playing softbalI at
the collegiate level. I am
so proud of their
accomplishments.
Scrapbooking those moments
for them has become
especially important to me.
The Scrappin' Sports and
More product lines have made
doing this so easy.
I work at our local
elementary school and am
also the assistant varsity
softball coach for our high
school team. Needless to
say, my husband and I have
spent countless hours
attending sporting events
and I have an endless supply
of photos. I look forward to
sharing my ideas and layouts
with you in the coming
months.
