Spotlight on...Tiff Sawyer

Tiff Sawyer is a wife and stay at home mum to 2 beautiful children and lives in Camden NSW, about 45 mins from Sydney.

After almost 15 years in the Real Estate industry, with an extensive background in public speaking, Tiff put her career on hold to become a stay at home mum and focus on her two small children, which is where her love of documenting the everyday began. What started as an interest in scrapbooking quickly developed into a sheer love of the craft. Tiff has achieved some wonderful scrapbooking accreditations in a short period of time. Since starting her blog Merry Memoirs Of Me in September 2008 and getting serious by submitting her work to magazines worldwide, Tiff has had over 60 projects published and been accepted onto several design teams including American manufacturer Rusty Pickle where she was assigned to seeking new talent and writing an article for the monthly newsletter and Australian chipboard manufacturer Twiddleybitz, for whom she currently coordinates the DT for Eastern Australia and international. Tiff has also had some of her work featured by Basic Grey and Websters Pages in addition to being featured for 3 consecutive days in the No 1 spot at 2 Peas for her December Daily album featuring Twiddleybitz products. Tiff also achieved an honourable mention in the 2009 Scrapbooking Memories Masters Competition for whom she has created commissioned work as well as being awarded the opportunity to create work for a major Australian scrapbook distributor, details of which will be released shortly.

After recently converted her garage space to a scrapbook studio, she hosts regular crop nights with mix of friends, experienced scrapbooker's and beginners to whom she provides step by step tutorials, much needed guidance and valuable tips and tricks of the trade.

Tiff's daily ritual of blog hopping and conversing with her fellow crafters, some of whom she's had the pleasure of meeting in real life is now such a major part of her life that she could not imagine life without them. She mentioned she could quite easily live without a mobile phone but not without her blog or computer LOL.

Tiff is honoured to be representing and teaching a super exciting class for Twiddleybitz at SIA this year and looks forward to inspiring and meeting many new friends in the process. You can learn more about Tiff by visiting her blog at http://scraplee.blogspot.com/.
