Gabrielle Beck
I have been scrapbooking for 17 years. I am a mom to 4 and a proud wife to my husband currently serving in the U.S. Air Force. My love of scrapbooking started with family photos and quickly became a passion for art. I love to create and capture the moment with great photos and detailed stories and journaling. Passing on our family history to future generations. Other obsessions include reading, writing and if you can believe it, I don’t like chocolate!
Jessica Guthrie
Jessica has always been interested in scrapbooking – she just didn’t know it! From her first Fisher-Price camera (that really worked!) given to her on her 7th Christmas, to the short stories she wrote through elementary school, Jessica was putting the pieces of her scrapbooking foundation together for future use.
Introduced to Creative Memories at a Yuma, Ariz., workshop in 1998, Jessica immediately jumped into the scrapbook craze with both feet. After discovering the three-dimensional embellishments that were hitting the market, Jessica branched out from her original style and began seeking out the latest products, styles and techniques.
Today, Jessica scrapbooks, attends crops, conventions, workshops and teaches at Scrapbook Boulevard as well as many other locations. She loves sharing the hobby with others – and turning hobbyists into addicted enthusiasts!
Jessica is an Orange County, Calif., native and is wife to U.S.
Marine Rodney, mother to two boys, and owner to three boxer dogs.

I started scrapbooking the right way in 1993. Prior to that I think I was the only 4th grader to never leave home without my camera! I still have all of my photos taken in the early days and they are a riot, the things we take pictures of when we are children. I am married, and I have three girls... Yes you heard it right 3 girls! Samantha Sydney, and Sage. We have two beyond cute dogs a beagle named Stewart, and a yorkie named Harley. We live at Disneyland and we live for soccer. I love music... I will listen to ANYTHING from LeeAnn Rimes to Busta Rymes.
I have been teaching for years now and I am instructor for Cosmo Cricket and Best Creations Inc. I have taught at large venues such as expos and conventions and smaller more intimate settings like the local scrapbook stores! I enjoy both since I am a complete people person! If you have taken a class from me you know I am a relaxed yet energized teacher...what??? You must take a class from me to truly experience it! I enjoy shopping at the most unusual places for my classes, that is what makes them so unique!
My most favorite scrapbooking items: Anything QuicKutz, ribbon, Bazzill cardstock, Scotch 3M, glue dots, and patterned paper (any, I am not picky). 'What size do you scrapbook?' I get this question asked a lot! I scrapbook in every size... 6x6, 8x8, 9x9, 8 1/2 x11, 12x12.. I love going through the $1 section at Target and finding items to alter....this is addicting tho!
Cheryl McAdam
I have been scrapbooking for almost seven years now. I have always
dabbled in a variety of crafts but something was missing. I found
that "something" in scrapbooking. I enjoy incorporating
my other crafts into my scrapbook pages such as painting, beads, sewing,
and crochet. I have been teaching scrapbooking classes for five
years. I love showing people creative ways to preserve their memories. Scrapbooking
has taught me the importance of journaling, and also better photography
skills. My family recently moved to Victorville from San Bernardino
and I love it here! I am so happy to be a member of the Scrapbook
Boulevard team.
Vesta Myers – Owner
My husband, Steve, and I purchased Scrapbook Boulevard in 2005. After
retiring from Verizon, I needed something fun to do. I have always
loved Scrapbooking and other paper crafting, so when the opportunity
came to purchase the business, we jumped at the chance! We consider
our staff and customers to be the best part. It’s been our goal
to build Scrapbook Boulevard into the kind of place where you feel
at home. We love it when you share your stories with us and we are
happy to help you preserve your memories.
Amber Osburn
Hi, I’m Amber. I have lived in the High Desert for about nineteen years. I am married to Ron and have two precious daughters, Lindsey and Courtney. I have been scrapbooking for about eight years. I started scrapbooking after the birth of my first baby. What started as a fun way to preserve my baby’s memories has turned into my passion… I love this hobby. Scrapbooking gives me an artistic and creative outlet, while at the same time preserving my family’s story. I love the Outdoors, I also quilt and paint. I am addicted to scrapbook magazines, chocolate and coffee.
Aprile Peel
I’m Aprile, I have lived up here in the High Desert since 1991 and my Husband, Bobby, and I love it. Our boys are grown and our baby is our Toy Doxie Itty Bitty Manic which a lot of you have met. I have been stamping for well over 15 years and dabbling in Scrapbooking since the 90’s. About 2000 was when I hit the floor running with scrapbooking and I love it. In fact scrapbooking, cardmaking and rubberstamping are my passions right now. I always take as many classes as I can squeeze into my schedule. And here I am now, helping out on the Boulevard, with specials events and classes. And who do I blame for this? The Boulevard Girls.
Jennifer Priest
My scrapbooking adventure began in 1998 when I was pregnant with my first child. Time and life had gotten in the way of my parents filling out my own baby book …next thing they knew, I was 18 and leaving home! I decided I’d try to avoid letting that happen to my daughter. I started scrapbooking using a kit of pre-printed pages with journaling prompts, cutesy stickers, and instructions on where to place the pictures. Looking back, I’m amazed at how far this hobby has come but that is how it all began for me!
My style is ever-changing because I enjoy trying new techniques and products whenever I can. I find inspiration from many places; magazine ads are one of my favorite ways to get layout and color ideas. I try to push the envelope with myself creatively and love a challenge!
In 2003, I branched out from just scrapping with my friends and started teaching classes at crops, local scrapbook stores, and expos. I’ve been involved in all things scrappy ever since! I’m currently teaching classes in the High Desert and Inland Empire to promote Scrapbook Royalty, a group that organizes charitable crops and events. I love that I can have fun with this hobby, share it with others through classes, and also help out my community!
Donna Salazar
I am extremely proud of the fact that I am happily married to my high school sweetheart, that we have been together over 20 years and that we are able to keep each other sane while raising two teenagers.
I love to inspire others to find their “artistic voice”. My mom “made” me take art my freshman year in high school and I quickly realized that something that I thought was nerdy… could satisfy my soul. After school I ended up spending several years working in a corporate job that was “non-artsy”. It took a serious car accident to convince me to return to my passion for art. I’ve learned that sometimes we need to be nudged into trying something that we aren’t used to and in the process we may find that “different” is a very good thing.
I have become an artist in the truest sense of the word. I live to be creative. I paint, draw, write, scrapbook and try my hand at new things all the time. My best friend jokes that when I'm in the “artistic zone” that the house could be burning down and I wouldn't want to stop what I was doing (it’s sad… but very true).

Jessica Studer
Hi my name is Jessica Studer I have been scrapping for about 7 years and am a total Scrap Addict, I often joke that I can't imagine a life without scrapbooking. I enjoy teaching at stores and events throughout Southern California and when I am not scrapping I am busy with my family. I often get asked how I have time to do everything, it is because of my wonderful scrubby (scrap hubby) Matt, we have been happily married for almost 13 years, and have 3 wonderful children, Matthew (12), Madison (7), and Abby (2).
