Good-byes are always hard, aren't they? We have LOVED having Janna Werner on our design team this year. Her style was unique and gorgeous and so fun! We all wish her the very best in her endeavors as she moves on. We will miss you, Janna!
So, that leaves a spot on our team, and we are excited to fill it with a lady who is amazingly talented! It's time for a sweet hello to:
Louise Nelson
Introduce yourself in a few sentences.
Hi my name is Louise Nelson but I am also known as loolabelle on line :)I
dont have any children or pets, however I am caretaker for the units
where I live, which involves caring for my landladies' cat; who is a very
anti-social creature. LOL :)
I currently live in Adelaide, South
Australia, where I work full-time as an Operating Room Registered Nurse.
I work for an Agency and, as such, go to a different hospital every day. I
work shift work [evenings and nights], mostly in the areas of Trauma
and Emergency Surgery.
The resins, and Donna Downey Stencils,....oh, and leaves. I love leaves. :)
What music/songs do you listen to when you scrapbook?
I
currently have a selection on continuous play by the artists; Sade,
Jack Johnson, The Gypsy Kings, Adele, Tracy Chapman, and the sound track
from The Big Chill.
Favorite food to eat?
At
the moment, despite it being the height of summer [LOL]. Soups and Eggs
Bennedict, Battered/tempura fish, seafood. and vegetables
If you could go on a dream vacation where would you go?
I would love to do an around the world trip and visit all the major art galleries.
What inspires you the most?
Ooooh,
what doesn't inspire me? LOL. I just need to open my eyes and I am
overwhelmed with inspiration from the world around me. :)
Everything
about my life and my friends; but, in saying that, mostly the 'everyday'
moments. I am a huge fan of instagram, so I scrap many of my everyday
moments using my instagram photos.
How long have you been scrapbooking?
I have been scrapbooking since may 2005.
Now that we know more about Louise let's have a peek at a few of her other projects!

Please join us in saying farewell to Janna; and help us in welcoming Louise to the Prima team! (Be sure and check out her blog too!)
I have been a fan of Louise Nelson for many years as her style is so edgy and different. I just love her style. She is sure to do Prima proud as a DT member x
