Bon Johnstone

hi there, and welcome to my shop. My name is Bonnie Johnstone and i am the owner of Bon's scraps. I recently {FINALLY} married the love of my life, matt after being together for over 6 years. We have 2 boys, kyle 7, and Dylan 3 and our newest arrival miss Lacey {09/03/08}.

I was introduced to scrapping when Dylan was about 4 mths old. I scrap because i love it and it's ME time.... I don't do it for the recordering history part of it, and i know i'll never catch up with the thousands of photos i have everywhere in the house!
I love the forever changing styles and revamping old ones! I love the shopping and making a mess :)
More than anything i love the friendly scrapping community. I have met so many beautiful and talented people, and look forward to meeting so many more!

MEET OUR FANTASTIC, TALENTED AND FRIENDLY DESIGN TEAM....

Fran Tynan

1- Who are you? Fran Tynan
2- How did you start scrapping? I went to a CM party (that seems to be how most people start!!) when my daughter was about 6 months old and never looked back (but didn't stay CM for long.)
3- How long have you been scrapping? About 5 years now
4- When do you find time to scrap? I'm a SAHM so scrap whenever I have a chance - lately I'll do something scrapping related everyday that I'm home. I also try to go to a crop every week, in town, so my youngest daughter can go to kindy at the same time.
5- Where do you scrap? I have a desk in a loungeroom in our house - it's a spare loungeroom - as you do!! Sort of a formal lounge but we don't use it for much, so I've invaded it with all my scrapping supplies!
6- What do you like to scrapbook the most? This changes a lot - but as a general rule it would obviously be my kids - I'm really into boy LO's at the moment - but I have passing phases, and do love to do OTP's for presents.
7- Where do you get your inspiration? Mainly from the photos themselves and the mood I want to convey - I get ideas from online galleries and magazines, and also get a lot of inspiration from just getting a really cute product and wanting to use it so I have to find something to match it!!

leanne love

Hi! My name is Leanne and I live in Robina on the beautiful Gold Coast. I am married to my best friend Stuart and we have been married for 13 years. We’ve been blessed with three children, Mishae 20yrs, Jacob 11yrs (who is obsessed with pulling electrical items apart!!) and Emma 8 yrs (going on 18). We all enjoy spending our spare time amping and 4 Wheel Driving or just fishing in the canals.

We also have a beautiful non-human member of our family and that is Jed our amazing Labrador. We do have a few fish as well but they are Stuarts and I choose not to have anything to do with them (especially the cleaning of the tank)

I have been scrapbooking now for a period of about 4 years. My styles have changed considerably over that time but generally I would say that I tend to lean more towards classical, straight lines. I love that I am recording my thoughts for my children to read and share with their families long after I have gone. I am lucky enough to have children who love to be in front of the camera so am never short of a subject to photograph.

I feel incredibly blessed and very lucky to have been picked as a member of the Bon’s Scraps Design Team. I am looking forward to getting to know each and everyone of you.

My name is Peta MacBeth, I am a mum of 4 (Zac nearly10, Meah 7, Caleb nearly 3 & Sienna born 19.4.08).... and I have been married to Jason for 11 years. We live in theHunter Valley NSW and we love it here.I work at a winery on a casual basis - just for my sanity.... and I teach Scrapbooking in my home 2-3 days a week. I have been scrapbooking for the past 5 years after a girlfriend introduced me to CM, and I have jsut gone on from there doing a few workshops but mainly experimenting with things I like to do....my style is very mixed, however I do take a lot of photos, so I do alot of double page layouts as well as singles. My scrapbooking is my relaxation, my destress, my love - after my family that is!!!

Juliana Lean

Hi my name is Juliana Lean.I'm 27 years old. I live in Forster/Tuncurry, NSW. I have lived here for 8 years now. I grew up in Picton. I am married to one great

uy called Kane. We have been arried for 6 years now and together for 11 years. We have one beautiful son called Baxter who is turning 5 this year. He starts school next year and he is so excited he talks about it all the time. I am a Hairdresser and i'm the manger of Just Cuts here in Forster. I'm enjoying working back full time but its a juggling act manging all the things i enjoy, family time and scrapping with working full time. I think everyone who scraps has that problem.

I was introduced to scrapping by a friend about 7 years ago by a creative memories party. I have really got into scrapping in the last 3 years. I love being able to make different thing from people and getting such a happy respone when they receive the thing i make them. I also enjoy being able to record things in a different ways so when we look back we can remember when the photo was taken and the story behind not just look at the photo.

As my husband always tells me scrap booking is not a hobby its an addiction! (I think I might agree)
