A Little Personal Info!
My name is Debbie Seyer and I live just outside St. Louis, Missouri. I am a stay-at-home mom to three beautiful girls and married to my High School sweetheart, Keith, for 20 years. My paper crafting journey started when our whole family went to Disney World in 1996. I started scrapbooking and finally found a hobby where I could actually complete my projects. In 2000, a friend invited me to a rubber stamping home workshop and I fell in love with cardmaking. I am proud to say that I have been published multiple times in paper crafting and scrapbooking magazines. I love working on Design Teams and have been very blessed to be on some really great teams. Besides paper crafting, I help with Funeral Luncheons at our church, help with Girl Scouts and am the taxi driver to a variety of musical instrument lessons for my girls. My hubby and I love to take our girls camping and exploring, watch movies and play board games.
My Objectives:
My goal is to establish relationships with product manufacturers, online retailers and industry magazines working as a design team member or on special projects.
