MEET THE TEAM

 Hi I’m Cheri Piles, I have been a scrapbooker for about 20 years now.I used to be a traditional scrapbooker but switched to mini albums as my daughter was getting older it was more inspiring to me to share her events in a different way. I love having themed books that can be switched around in our home. I have been with Teresa since 2010 and have enjoyed all of the opportunities and creativity that being on her team has given me. I am also the team leader for the design team which is also fun to get to know the team and to be surrounded around such talent!! I teach mini album classes at many stores here in Washington state where I live and have so enjoyed being able to share my talent with others. www.cherinspirations.com

Hi there...I'm Yvonne. 

I have been "officially" scrapbooking since 1997. 

It was just the thing I was looking for because I have always had a love of "playing" with paper. 

I have been a buyer, designer, teacher and manager in the scrapbook industry since 1998.   

Teaching the love of paper crafting has become one of my biggest passions.  I cannot explain how big the reward is when I see people develop a love all their own or those lightbulb moments when they realize "I can do this!"

Hi all! My name is Stacey Michaud. I am a teacher during the day and an avid scrapbooker by night!  Paper serves as my muse and I love gaining inspiration from the products around me. I like to call my style clean and linear with a twist. Adding in unexpected touches and heartfelt journaling are a must for me. I adore designing for Teresa Collins because of how beautiful and versatile her products are. It makes storytelling much easier.

Leslie Ashe is a born & bred Texan girl who loves to create memories with her family & put them on paper to remember always. She began scrapbooking over 16 years ago after going to a craft party with friends. Creating is her one and only true outlet. Not a day goes by when she’s not sitting in her studio (that her husband helped her put together recently) working away. When she’s not creating, you can find her curled up with a good book, with her family or out snapping all the memories she can get. It’s quite an honor and priveledge to be on the Teresa Collins Design Team! She’s blessed to have work published in Scrapbook Trends, Cards, Simply Handmade, Create: Idea Books, Creating Keepsakes magazines. You can find her blog here: http://leslieashe.blogspot.com/

Tessa Wise is a busy wife and mom from Northern Virginia.  Cards are her favorite thing to make and she loves trying out new techniques and design styles. She also enjoys teaching others how to make their own cards at her local scrapbooking store Scrapdoodles.

Hi I'm Jennifer Haggerty and I live in Bloomington, Illinois with my husband and two children. I've been scrapbooking for 15 years and it is my passion!  Layouts are my favorite but I also love to make mini albums and home décor. I find inspiration by trying the newest trends in the industry and am excited to be a part of the Teresa Collins Design Team! 

My name is Melissa Phillips and my husband, little girl, and I live in the high desert of Southern Nevada, where the wildflowers grow and the deer and wild horses roam.   I have been paper-crafting for about 9 years and have loved each and every minute of it.  Pretty paper and embellishments are just as delicious to me as chocolate.  I love mixing and matching colors and patterns and find so much happiness and contentment in creating with my hands.

Christie has always been a huge fan of Teresa Collins' products and is super excited to be part of the team this year! She loves to create with paper and pays special attention to the “little details”. She feels it is very important to preserve her family’s legacy in a beautiful way. 

Christie loves all types of paper-crafting and mixed media art and has been faithfully scrapbooking since 1996. Blog: www.prettypaperbook.com
