I am French, first language and English came later. I have always loved crafts as I have tried many over the years. The most I do now would be sewing and computer graphics. During the day, I am a speech-language pathologist working in the community. I started using PSP, several years ago, when my mom gave me her copy of PSP 7 (she had gotten version 8). I learned pretty well on my own and with one online course. I was a tagger for a while, creating signatures for members of a forum. In 2005, I discovered digital scrapbooking and was hooked. As I am always searching through my PSP tools and functions, I have found ways to create many scrapbook elements on my own and started to write tutorials. That is when I started a teaching group where members get to learn how to create those elements themselves. This group has been going well for almost 3 years now. In December 2007, after knocking at a few stores, one owner let me in and gave me a headstart in the designing business. Early in 2008, I took a scripting course to help write better scripts for PSP. I have always been jealous of Photoshop users who seem to have tons of actions and I want PSP users to have also quality scripts. On the side, I have only one physical activity, which is my karate class, twice a week. That keeps me a bit active, while I would still prefer to sit at the computer and design! I earned my black belt, in 2007, after 8 years of training. I guess a black belt could have helped when I had teens in the house, right?<\/span><\/div>\n<div><strong><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Century Gothic;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Century Gothic;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Century Gothic;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am married and a mother of three adult children (and grandma of one), living in Atlantic Canada.
