Guest Designer: Louise Nelson

CHA is always a fun experience to catch up with old friends and make new ones. We were lucky enough to be introduced to today's guest designer by our friend Frank from PaperHaus Magazine. He said that Louise would be an amazing candidate for a guest designer here at Authentique Paper and she could do amazing things with our products. We took his word and we are so glad that we did! After chatting with Louise, we knew she was a genuine person who had a passion for art. We are so very lucky to have her with us today! 

Louise currently lives in an inner city suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. She has a day job working full time as a Perioperative Nurse [RN] for an agency; working mostly evening and night shifts in public hospital emergency/trauma operating theaters in and around Adelaide.

Louise has always had creative hobbies, before taking up scrapbooking 6 years ago she loved to restore furniture. Since she started scrapbooking she has also devloped a love for portrait photography, and recently she has begun to dabble in painting.

During the last 6 years Louise has been fortunate to have been a Creative Design Team member for Scrapbooking Memories Magazine [AUS] in 2009 and a Scrapbooking Memories Master for 2011-12. Also fortunate to have been on the Creative Design Team for UK based scrapbooking magazine; Scrap365. Currently she creates for Aussie Scrap Source, Jenni Bowlin Studio, Imaginarium Designs, The Color Room, 7 Dots Studio and Prima Marketing. She has been blessed to be published in Scrapbooking Memories [AUS], and have also been featured in the last 4 editions of Somerset Memories, with technique articles and layouts in the reader gallery.

Louise worked with our "Renew" collection to create several amazing layouts. We just love her whimsical style and her creative layouts made with this collection!
