Announcing a New Designer: Gina Jones!
I'm very excited to announce that we have a new designer joining the DigitalScrapbook.com team today! Gina has been an active member of our community for two years. You may have seen her moderating and creating posts in the Designer Challenges Forum, or you may have downloaded some of her lovely designs in the Commons. Today I'm very happy to have her join us as a full designer and I know she has a lot of lovely designs planned for the future that I can't wait to see.

Here's a little bio right from Gina:
My name is Gina and I am from Alabama. I am married with 3 adult children, nine grandchildren, and two Chinese Crested (hairless) dogs.
As a small child, I wanted to be an artist. I'd watch my dad draw, then try to copy his work. Art was life until I started college and decided to study nursing. Even with a career in the medical field, I found a way to include art in my work. I designed logos, brochures, stationary, report forms, etc., etc. If it could be printed, I designed it.
Eventually, I started editing photos and adding elements to them to share with family and friends. A short time later, I discovered digital scrap kits which simplified my life by allowing me to easily coordinate elements.
Fast forward, a few years ago, while googling "wire layer styles" I stumbled upon DigitalScrapbook.com. It was love at first sight! The Manifesto is in perfect harmony with my own personal beliefs so I became a subscriber and involved within the forum. Today, I am honored to become a design team member.

Today Gina has published several new and lovely kits that coordinate with the Good Life: January 2020 Bundle and this month's blog train. And I know there's more great stuff to come, so stay tuned!
Please help me welcome Gina to the team by leaving a comment below!

About Me
Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at DigitalScrapbook.com a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. DigitalScrapbook.com has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at DigitalScrapbook.com where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.

Thank you so much for the welcome.
My natural style is cutesy/whimsical but I do like to change things up from time to time so no matter your scrapping style, you're sure to find something to scrap with. I have kits and bundles planned out for the next six months so keep checking back and in the meanwhile I'll be working on even more kits to upload.
Amazing! Congratulations Gina! Looking forward to seeing more lovely designs 💖
Woohoo! Congrats, Gina!
