Our nineth featured reader’s blog belongs to Kristine Collins…

We asked readers to tell us a little about themselves. Kristine says:

"’My name is Kristine Collins and I live in sunny Queensland which I love. I started scrapbooking around 4 years ago when my son was born, gave it up for a short time and then got the urge again following the birth of my daughter (funny that!) I love the idea that my kids are going to have a memento of their lives from my perspective and I usually document all the little stuff that happens from day to day rather then the "big" events like birthdays, christmas etc. I want to remember the quirky little things my kids did – stuff that I would have forgotten all about otherwise.

I tend to focus on a good photo when I scrapbooking and usually stick to 12×12 although I have been known to try 6×12 every so often as well. I am also an avid cardmaker – it is a newer hobby of mine but I am just as obsessed (maybe a little more if I am honest) with cards as I am with scrapbook pages. I can be found lurking around several online forums and do design team work for Katja Schneider at Designing Memories as well as Chatterbox. I love to use inks, pretty ribbons, flowers, stamps and rub ons in my work but also love to try new products out – especially stuff that initially I would never have thought to use (DT work is great for getting you trying new things!)"
