SHELIA HANSEN

I live in Spanish Fork, Utah where I have lived most of my life. I am married with two children. My husband's name is Ken. My oldest child, a boy, is Kyle and he is 8 years old. My youngest child, another boy, is Tyler and he is 5 years old. I love being a wife and mother!!!

Scrapbooking is my passion! I have been scrapbooking for 17 years, I have been real serious about it the past 9 years. I began scrapbooking when KMA was called "The Annex" and was just a small company. I love taking photos and scrapbooking them is even better! Paper piecing is my most favorite thing to do in scrapbooks and I especially love vellum. I was a scrapbook instructor for our local Michael's Craft Store for a time. Then, I designed several layouts for Die-Cuts With A View. Most recently I have been creating layouts for several private individual's albums. I really enjoy this line of work and can do it without becoming bored in any way. I am in the process of having a website created so that I can expand my layout design work globally.

In addition to scrapbooking I own a business named Timeless Moments. In this business I take impressions of baby and children's hands and feet and I make statues from the impressions. I have been doing this for five years, it is also a fun line of work. I also do a bridal/anniversary statue made from an impression of the bride and groom or husband and wife holding hands. It shows their wedding rings and all the details of their hands. They are gorgeous!

I really enjoy designing layouts with the Cool Baby Graphics Product Line. They have awesome graphics that fit well in scrapbooks! I am also excited to use the graphics in card making.

Shelia uses clipart from our Beach Mini and Babies, Babies, Babies CD for these 3 layouts. The layouts are fun and colorful and highlight summer time fun. I especially love the creative use of vellum in the last layout with the little snorkling boy. A close-up is shown to the right.

 

I love the use of the Birthday Mini's with the first two layouts. The hanging presents are so cool and look like shrinky Dinks. What fun! The last layout is just precious. Shelia uses clipart from our Babies, Babies, Babies CD with this one. I love the fibers Shelia used to highlight the page topper and the photos. Very creative.
