Let's get to know a little about Erica.

Hi!  My name is Erica Houghton.  
My husband Ben & I live outside of Washington DC in Stone Ridge, Virginia.  
When I'm not working or sitting in traffic you can find me in my studio creating, 
curled up with a good book, headed out the door for a run, or sightseeing & traveling!

My paper crafting is shabby chic - I  love glitter, rhinestones & anything that has glitz, 
glamour & a LOT of sparkle!   AND I'm totally addicted to patterned paper.  
I never feel my pages are complete until I've added flowers, ribbon & machine stitching. 

 I enjoy creating a variety of projects including layouts,
 cards, tags, Off-The-Page products & mini albums.

In addition to creating for various design teams I also enjoy teaching classes at local
scrap stores,  because I love sharing my passion for paper crafting with others.  
To see all of my creations please visit my blog here.

Hi Everyone!  

Today we have a video tutorial by Design Team member, 

Terhi Koskinen from Finland inspired by our current challenge  here.

Above is the AMAZING finished canvas - based on the mood board below

but stay with us to see how Terhi created her masterpiece!

First - a bit about Terhi!

" Hello!
 I'm Terhi, 27-year-old scrapbooker, mother, crafter, horseback-rider, employee
 & wonderful person from Finland. I've been scrapping for 3 years now & couldn't 
imagine life without it anymore. Every joke is a possible title for the next layout
& every picture I take is something to play with :)

Scrapbooking is more than a hobby for me, it's a lifestyle & a big passion! 
My scrap style is quite "Scandinavian" {lots of straight lines & matching colour themes}.
 Lots of layered patterned papers & always something shiny too!!

I like to try different techniques & learn more with each layout. 

I like to archive memories of my daughters' growing, as well as everyday life,
nature, nice little details & moments I want to remember.

I would love for you to visit my blog here. 

Click into Terhi's video to see how it's done!!
