Teri Anderson  started scrapbooking when she was a teenager. Paper crafting came after she moved to a small town where she didn't know anyone. It was at the local scrapbook store that she stumbled upon a book on card making with scrapbook supplies. The bug bit and the rest is history. Teri has served on design teams for Art Declassified, SEI, Wordsworth and Paper Love Designs. Besides paper crafting, Teri loves to spend time with family and friends, going to the beach and taking pictures. She also loves attending concerts. She's been to more than 50. The highlight was seeing the Rolling Stones with her father. Teri also has what has become a small hobby - working as an extra in the movies. She's been one three times.
