Nicole Samuels

I’ve been scrapbooking for over 10 years now…even longer if you include making collages from magazine clippings and travel brochures. It all started with a kit from QVC. All that pretty patterned paper = love at first sight! Since that first wedding scrapbook, I’ve created dozens more and along the way have had the opportunity to design for some great companies and meet some amazing people. The best part of it all though is watching my kids look through their albums and smile as they remember the moments I’ve captured on the page. :) My work has been published in Creating Keepsakes, Simple Scrapbooks, BHG Srapbooks Etc., Scrapbook Trends, Cards, and several idea books and online newsletters. Over the years I’ve designed for various manufacturers including Studio Calico, Pink Paislee and Basic Grey, and I’ve taught scrapbooking and paper crafting classes at both local retreats and large conventions.
