Here is a little bit about them...

was created and is owned by Robyn Weinrib.  
Robyn offers a wonderful variety of digital stamps and digital papers,
designed to meet the needs of all digital paper crafting addicts for every occasion.

OK, now onto the challenge. We have a BINGO challenge!  We know you love these ones....


Ok - quick reminder - you need to pick a line - horizontal, vertical, diagonal - your choice!  Then you need to include the three things in that line.  For instance, if you choose the bottom horizontal line you would have Flowers, Ribbon and the word LOVE on your project.

Today, we meet Leslie and Laura

Gosh we are speeding through this year!  Wave your hands in the air if you are surprised it is the 9th already!

Today we get to meet two of our new DT - that's Leslie and Laura - in their own words

My name is Leslie, I'm married with two grown children and one granddaughter, and I live in north Florida. For the last 18 years or so, my paper passion has been card making. I also enjoy making paper shoes, mini albums and gift bags, and have been known to alter a few tins and boxes. I started blogging and entering challenges about a year and a half ago. I’m really looking forward to working with the Aud Sentiments DT! 

And this is Leslie's fave project....



Hi there, my name is Laura, I am a mom to 3 boys (Chris 23, Jon 21, and Timmy 9) and a crazy Olde English Bulldogge named Mollie! I have been married to my sweetheart (Ian) for 25 years. I am a very active and passionate papercrafter. If you check out my blog, you will see that I am a very regular poster. Yup, I have a love for blogging too! I am thrilled to be joining the AUD Sentiments DT and cannot wait to start playing along! 

And this is Laura's fave project......

 
Welcome to the team peeps x

Meet Mel and Betty

Hope you are enjoying the introductions - here are another two.....

Hi there, I’m Mel and I have been on the DT for Aud Sentiments since May 2012. It has been amazing being part of a team with the other girls and it was one of the first DT teams I joined last year and I can’t wait for the coming year of craft challenges ahead!

I currently live in London with my parents and work for a charity that promotes Africa in the UK.

I have been crafting on and off for 9 years since I was 18, I’m 27 now and enjoy every aspect of crafting from card making to scrapbooking, and from jewellery making to painting. I am discovering new aspects of crafting all the time and it’s exciting to uncover new techniques, styles and materials as well as going back to basics old school style too. My favourite craft is card making and my passion for it started when I was first at college all those years ago and now make cards for all occasions – so everyone expects a handmade card from me at some point during the year – which is always encouraging and brings a smile to my face every time to see people’s reactions to them! 




 My Name is Betty Chan, live in Hong Kong, I started blogging and entering challenge on July 2012, since Hong Kong is a shopping paradise so I can buying almost everything around the world with tax free, it help me to finish my artwork more easy, This is beginning of the year and I hope to bring something new to all of you. 


 More introductions to come over the next few days - and all the blog links are in the sidebar (in case you want to pop over and say hi!)

Meet Ali and Sandra! ...

Another couple of introductions......

Hi all my name is Alison and along with Ruth and Julie I am one of the longest serving members of Aud Sentiments. I work part time for the Civil Service, and the rest of the time I look after my beautiful daughters who are 8 and 6 years old. A full time job in itself as I am an older Mum! I have been seriously crafting for about 8 years and started blogging a little over 3 years ago. We have two gorgeous cats called Misty and Fluffy - girls chose the names - they are about 7 months old now. 

This is Ali's fave project..... 




Hi all! My name is Sandra, 26 years old and I love in the Netherlands! I have been crafting all my life, (I am left-handed, that seems to explain everything) and I started scrapbooking in 2005. I don't do that very often anymore, right now, I am totally addicted to cardmaking and coloring stamped images! 


Look out for the next couple......

Meet the DT - Ruthie and Kym

I said I would periodically pop a few DT members up, so that you can get to know the new DT and some of the existing DT.  

As ever, someone has to go first....so I jumped right in.....

My name is Ruth (Ruthie in craftland!) - my surname is Gedalovitch - I wasn't born to that name, I married
 it!  The other owners of that name are Tony (my husband) and Josh (our 12 year old son). 
In our area, there are very few of us - which makes it really easy when booking dental 
and doctor's appointments!

I live in the UK - on the borders of Essex and London (officially we are London) - yep, 
we are just up the road to "TOWIE" guys and girls - in fact some of them were schooled 
at the same school my son used to attend!  

I work full-time in libraries - am on the senior management team - and laugh with my boss
 that I get to do all the fun stuff (events and outreach) whilst she has to do all the 
boring stuff (finance and performance management) - I am definitely NOT suited to the 
boring stuff! 

We have numerous animals - 3 cats, 1 hamster, 4 rats, 1 guinea pig, 1 bearded dragon, 
1 budgie and some fish - we foster for our local rescue centre too!  I am currently 
learning sign language and we had to name and describe our animals - mine took a while!

Crafting wise, I am trying really hard to improve my colouring, then I plan to focus on 
layouts.  I will pretty much try any craft, so you never know what will pop up on my blog! 
 I go to an annual crafty weekend - which really pushes my crafting forward!  AND we do lots of 
giggling!

I am so honoured to be part of the AudSentiments team - I seriously think I would not get
 on it if I applied today as the talent has just kept growing each time we do a DT call! 
 
Here is my fave card - 
 
 
Kym was the next brave soul to post up a profile....
  
Hello my name is Kym and I have been on the Aud Sentiments Design Team for a few 
years now.  I have been married 21 years and have two boys aged 20 and 16.  The 
oldest left home in August 2012 but he comes and sees his mum 1-2 nights a week on 
his way to college to finish his degree.   I work part-time as a Medical Secretary.
I have been crafting now for about 6 years.  I make my cards solely to sell to raise
fundsfor different charities so my funds are therefore very limited so I love to 
use craft CDs, stamps and digital images as I can use things over and over again. 
 I have also got into scrapbooking and hope to do more of that in 2013.

And here is Kym's fave project....


Hmmm I wonder who will be the next brave souls to post up their profiles?...... watch this space.....
