Lisa Saunders-Abbott

Hello : ) I’m Lisa and I live in the UK with my hubby and 2 small children that are growing up too fast for my liking. That’s what really got me into scrapping. I want to remember all the silly little things that are said and done. As a teen I started my own version of mini books, which then evolved into scrapbooking when my second child was 2 back in 2004.

I feel so lucky that my family totally ‘get’ this amazing hobby. The kids love scrapbooking and hubby loves the photography side. All three often come up with ideas and suggestions for LO’s. I love seeing the kids sat together looking through our albums remembering the fun times we’ve had. This makes me so happy.

For me personally, it’s mainly about the story telling. I want to remember cute words the kids have said or things that have made us all laugh or like the time I had to give my son ‘Time Out’ at the top of a hill!! I don’t know if I have a style. I call it messy.

I love paints, inks, mists, colours and layering. I like my LO’s to be fun. I don’t tend to plan, I just go for it and see what I end up with at the end, usually very messy fingers and more stained clothing. I really should wear an apron. I like using non scrappy items and discovering different ways to use my stash. I’m so excited to be part of this very talented team and feel very honored to be part of Cocoa Daisy. Thank you xx
