Design Team Mid-Month Reveal{October 2014 Challenge 18 by Rachael Funnell} PLUS A New Design Team Member & ANOTHER Giveaway!!

Hello again!!  Yes you read that right!  
Not only are you here for the fabulous mid-month reveal from
 the 2nd half of our amazingly inspirational Design Team BUT 
you are also here for SOME MORE GOOD NEWS from SATW!  

Firstly we welcome Heather McMahon to our team of movers & shakers!!  
Heather joins us as another Australian Ambassador 
{they are quite the creative bunch down under aren't they?!} 
but she also takes on the role of "Tutorials Manager", 
which means she is in charge of our 2 monthly Design Team
 member contributed tutorials here at SATW.

Let's learn a little about Heather!

"  Hi there! I'm Heather McMahon & I'm thrilled to be joining the team at 

Scrap Around The World. I live in Australia with my husband & 2 teenage kids. 

I was introduced to scapbooking 15 years ago & became immediately addicted!

My children were young when I started so finding scrapping time was difficult, 

but now I have much more time to explore & create.

 I love to experiment with different styles & there is a lot of variety in what I create. 

No matter what style I use, colour always plays a key role in my work. I like

 my layouts to reflect the mood of the photo & I use colour to reinforce this. 

I'm really looking forward to sharing my work here with you & to seeing

 what you all create too!  I'd love for you to visit myblog @ 

www.heathermcmahon09.blogspot.com.au

Woohoo!!  Congratulations Heather!
We are all really excited to have you on our team too!
