Debbie O’Neal ~ When you meet Debbie, you will notice that she EATS, SLEEPS and BREATHS Scrapbooking. However, Debbie got started
in scrapbooking quite by accident in 2001. She got the idea to make a “THIS IS YOUR LIFE” scrapbook for her daughter’s high school
graduation present. No one bothered to tell her it might be impossible to CRAM 18 years into 1 album in only 2 months but she
did it! And after watching her daughter and her friends sit on the couch pouring over the scrapbook both laughing and
crying, Debbie knew that she had found her true passion as a Scrapbooker and hasn’t turned back since. She now keeps up with
all the latest products and techniques scrapbooking has to offer. She truly enjoys sharing her mission to preserve memories
by teaching classes and encouraging others how they can get their projects done no matter what level of scrap talent they possess. Debbie has been happily married for the past 27 years to her high school sweetheart and best friend (she swears she was
only 3 when she got married) , has two grown daughters and a 5 year old granddaughter that shares her passion for scrapbooking! Position: Design Team and Teacher
