Welcome to the Scrap Our Stash Team!

"My name is Marie Claude Rodier, aka Nini on most virtual forums.

I’m a wife to a really nice man and mom to two very dynamic and smart boys of 5 and almost 8.

We live in a small suburb near Montreal in Québec, Canada. I’m working in translation, trying to find the best French expressions and words that translate English concepts. I love to solve complex linguistic puzzles every day.

When I’m not working, I’m either cooking special recipes for my little ones or in my scrap room creating new layouts. I’ve started scrapbooking not long after my oldest son's birth, in 2008. I took a break for a few years (life could get really busy with a full time job and young kids!!!) and came back to scrapbooking in 2011.

I’ve been totally committed to this hobby ever since. It became a real passion and sometimes an obsession!"

As her first SOS reveal, Marie has created this stunning layout, inspire by our

January Stash Challenge:

"Here is my first layout as part of SOS DT team. I'm so proud to be part of it. smile emoticon

When I first saw the inspiration, I was immediately attracted by the colors... blues are my favorite!

Most of the time I'm using black and white pictures on my layouts, but when I saw this one in my stash, I knew it was meant to be.

I've used pastel oils, black modeling paste and white embossing powder to create my background. I've also used white gesso mixed with water to create splatters."
