Excited to be Joining the ScrapHappy Team!

Hi Everyone!!  My name is Ashley Horton, and I am so looking forward to being a part of the ScrapHappy Team over the next 6 months.  Today, I am here to tell you a little bit more about myself.  My husband, Tyler, and I have been married for 12 years.  We have three children, Madison age 5, Emma age 3, and Reese age 2.  And believe me, they are a handful!!!  Three years ago, I decided to leave my job of 11 years at our church, as an Admin Asst. and be a Stay at Home Mom.  It was one of the best decisions we could have made for our family!

 
I started Scrapbooking over 5 years ago and had no clue what I was doing!  It was definitely trial and error and I couldn't tell you which product was which or who made what!!  :)  But times have changed and my "skills" have improved greatly since that first year!  I would say that my overall style at this point is Cutesy...mainly because a lot of my pages are centered around my children and they are all young ages.  But I love to do a little bit of everything...Whimsical, Artsy, Vintage, Graphic, Clean & Simple...you name it, I've tried it!  Some of my favorite products are from Echo Park, My Minds Eye, October Afternoon, and Tim Holtz.  I had a layout published 2 years ago for the special issue of Creating Keepsakes Super Fast Pages with 4x6 Photos Vol. 2 and have an upcoming layout that will be published in the January 2012 issue of Creating Keepsakes.  I also had a published layout in the new EBook by Sassy Lil' Sketches.  So here is a little bit of my work, that I would like to share with you:

 

 

When I have a little spare time, I enjoy reading and watching movies with my hubby.  We also love spending time with our friends and being involved in the activities and ministries in our church.  Thanks for taking the time to read a little about me and I look forward to sharing more with you each month, through my monthly tips and techniques on the Blog!
