Jennifer Stewart bio
Jennifer Stewart lives in Austin, Texas with the love of her life, David
and their energetic 7-year old Noah. She was raised a small-town girl
so the old-fashioned values of family, faith, and home play a huge part
in her love of decorating, cooking, entertaining, and preserving
memories through scrapbooking.
Jennifer began scrapbooking in 1998 and soon discovered that not only
is it a way to capture memories, but also a wonderful means of
expressing herself creatively through color, patterns, and texture.
Wanting to use her favorite patterned papers for more than just albums,
she slowly began integrating her scrapbook supplies and art into their
home décor and loved how it personalized their space. She finds the
most inspiration in flea markets and antique stores, children's
clothing, and even gourmet food stores. Jennifer always keeps a
notebook in her purse to jot down ideas. She says you never know when
you'll be inspired by a design, a scent, or a color pattern! (her
camera phone comes in handy, too!)
With a teaching degree from the University of Texas, Jennifer's
decision to teach local scrapbooking classes was an easy one. She later
began teaching home décor project classes both locally and on the road.
Her work has been published in Memory Makers, Creating Keepsakes, BHG
Scrapbooks, Etc. and Scrapbook Trends magazines and Memory Makers
Books. She has also worked as a project designer for several
scrapbooking companies. Jennifer loves inspiring others to create
something beautiful, personal and lasting for their own homes. What
else makes her happy? TIVO, vintage ribbon, chocolate, 80's music,
Christmas, and a house full of extended family.

Class Description:
Welcome Spring into your home with this beautiful family banner that sits perfectly on a mantle or as the centerpiece of a room.
