Maggie Holmes

Maggie grew up in Utah but now resides in Arizona and has been scrapbooking since High School. She is passionate about scrapbooking and loves the fact that she can record all of her special family memories and create art at the same time! She has been designing for Making Memories for several years and is also currently on the 2008 CK Dream Team and the Studio Calico design team. In addition she is often asked to guest design for a variety of different scrapbooking / stamping companies and websites. Her inspiring layouts and ideas can be found in many of the Making Memories and Creating Keepsakes idea books as well as online at her blog.

Maggie is a professional photographer and feels blessed that she can share her talent with others and capture such meaningful photos for her clients. She has turned many of her signature editing effects into actions for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements that she sells through her blog. She is also teaching online photography workshops and has found that she loves the joy that comes from helping others to get the same results with their photography!

She is the mother of four amazing children that are most always the subjects of her photographs, layouts and projects. In addition to being with her family she loves to read, organize and decorate her home. She has an ambitious “go get em” attitude that keeps her juggling many projects all at once. When asked how she does it all her reply is that she wouldn’t know what to do if she weren’t busy all the time. In fact, if there is ever a quiet moment, it is usually spent dreaming up the next project (while snuggling with her babies of course)!
