About Karma:

Can you believe that when I was only nine years old I started my first scrapbook? Of course it was not acid free, but this is when my passion for collecting photos and memorabilia began. By the time I was in high school, I had completed five very large albums. I did a huge scrapbook of all my choir memories, from the time I was in the 4th grade, all the way up until my senior year in high school. My choir director was so impressed with what I had done she had me do several more for the other graduating students in the choir.

I have worked in the scrapbooking industry now for over 13 years and have really loved how it has helped me grow as a person and in my creativity. I have been designing websites and working with graphics for 11 years, all self taught, and I feel so blessed to be the website designer, a digital product designer and administrator of FaithSisters.com. Along with being involved with Faith Sisters, I also own several other scrapbooking websites including my website design site called eKreations.com!

I love interior decorating, singing with various vocal groups which have included 4 church worship teams, riding bikes with my family and playing "Guitar Hero" with my 9-year-old son on the Playstation! A fun fact about me is that I have lived in four different time zones in the last four years.

About Michelle:

My best friend and I started making "memory books" when we were in ninth grade. We devoured all of our parent's magazines to cut things out and stick into our books! What a long way the scrapbooking industry and my personal memory books have come since then!

I became totally obsessed with scrapbooking when my daughter was very little! I dove in head first to start a scrapbooking career. My passion is helping others learn to preserve their family heritage and faith through scrapbooking and journaling. In 2001 I started hosting Scrap Camp weekend retreats and every year since approximately 100 ladies gather together for a weekend of scrapbooking twice a year! I really enjoy event planning and pampering other scrappers so my sister and I bought a building and started Get Crafty Studios weekend retreats. I have also been the BellaOnline Scrapbooking Editor for the past four years. I feel so blessed to have met scrappers and crafters from all over the United States that I now call friends!

I was born and raised in West Virginia, where I currently live with my husband and our 3 children. I am a retired homeschooling mother! My children are all in public schools now and I am blessed to be teaching 3 and 4 yr olds at Mt Pleasant Preschool where I am the teacher/ director. I am also the Sparks Director for our Awanas club at church.

I enjoy spending time with my family, entertaining at our home, playing with my kids, listening to contemporary Christian music, going to concerts, scrapbooking and talking with my friends, trying new recipes, reading and playing Canasta! I enjoy every day to the fullest and always try to make the best of every situation.

I praise the Lord that he put the desire in our hearts to create FaithSisters.com. Sunny and Karma are the Bestest SISTERS in the world! I am so thankful that He put them in my life! I continue to be amazed at how He has used Faith Sisters and grown it into a community of wonderful supporting sisters. When I need prayer I know exactly where to turn and I know that our heavenly father answers the prayers of our Faith Sisters! I know that there are only more wonderful things in store!

About Sunny:

I have been married for fifteen years and we are the parents of one daughter and three sons. When not scrapbooking or writing, I love to be doing anything outdoors! I also enjoy volunteering in my church's women and youth organizations. As a young mother and wife, I found I could combine my passion for scrapbooking with needs: to meet other women who loved scrapbooking, earn extra money, and stay home with my children. I began as a consultant with a new direct selling company and worked my way up to become a top sales/recruiting leader. Although the businesses struggled and I no longer work in direct sales I still am very involved in the industry.

I have been scrapbooking for over 15 years now. I have kept a journal since the age of 9. Journaling and recording my life has always been a talent that I am thankful for. Some of my ancestors passed their life stories in journals and I want my albums to show my future generations how faith affected my life. Several years ago when my third child was born and my oldest was only 4 years old I realized I needed to change the way I scrapbooked. At the rate I was going trying to record every move, every activity, they would need a U-Haul to move out just their albums. I had created over 22 albums in four years. I wanted my albums to record more about me, more about my feelings and more about our blessings. To be life lessons and something more to show my future prosperity my love for live, family and our Lord.

Then I was introduced to Faithbooking, the style I first saw was just including a scripture on each layout. Which is great for most but just as we are all created differently in our own way I saw it as something more. I wanted to create layouts that show gratitude, blessings, trails, all of those life moments that build your own personal testimony. Believing all along that it is for every religion or faith. It is a record of our journey in this life our personal recorded of each person's ever growing faith and authentication. What better way share yourself for your loved ones when they can know that my mother, grandmother, family member also struggled with this at one time or can read the record of a blessing in your life to see the same blessing in their own lives. A legacy of how God is involved in each of our everyday lives.

Because my passion is teaching and sharing, I am persistently pursuing my dreams of helping others create meaningful albums and to share their legacy through scrapbooking. I continuing to submit my work to the magazines, contests and teaching classes at my home. I love scrapbooking and feel that everyone deserves to be the star of their own book! I see Faithbooking as a creative way leave a meaningful legacy.
