HOBBY FARM: nieuwe internationale designer Júlia Saddi

Please welcome our new designer Júlia Saddi:

Hi there! My name is Julia, I am from Brazil, and I’ve been a paper designer since I was able to hold and cut with scissors!

I considered myself a very blessed being ‘cause I have never been rich or anything similar to it, but the Lord has helped me so much to grow up as a human being, in all senses, that, whenever a good opportunity comes my way, I put as much love and effort as I can so that at the end it turns out being a great new something on my life.

On this sense, when I had to live in Africa with my family during 4 years, throughout my highschool days, besides regular school subjects, I chose studying IB Higher in Arts at the International School of Kenya: Arts History, Oil Painting, Watercolor Painting, Batik
Collage, Clay Pottery, Music and Theater.

Later on, back in Brazil, I got married, attended a Business Bachelor’s Degree and became a Government Worker. From then on, as I was already itching (!) about it, I retook my everyday arts’ activities.

In 2004 I started learning 3D paper techniques and took a refinement course at the Alicia's Atelier in Buenos Aires, Argentina. From 2007 on I started focusing on Scrapbook and I have never stopped and, since then, our office has never been the same:-)

From then on, I have been constantly researching and investing on learning more and more about scrapbook.

In 2008 got the following Certifications: SDU (EK) Basic Course, in Brazil and SDU Advanced Methods, in Chicago. Joined the knowledge and experience in 3D to Scrapbooking and soon became expert in it: 3D with photos and settings.

With great joy, I accepted the invitation to become Scrap Teacher at a local store, as well as member of the Happy Design Team 2009.

At the moment, I juggle among my daughter raising, family, career, community work, teaching …, besides the everyday scrapping hours! And that’s not all!
