"I’m Ginny Nemchak and I live in a sweet little town out in the country with my Husband of 20 years and 2 almost grown boys. I am convinced there there is no better living than out on a dirt road….it’s a very blessed life I have.
I have been crafting my whole life in some form...but my creative outlet is now focused on paper. I enjoy all types….layouts...mini albums…..cards. I have recently discovered a new love for altered art and digital collage.
Graphic 45 has been my favorite paper company since I discovered it. I love all things vintage and shabby chic. They have so many fabulous patterns and you can mix and match between the line to get a very unique look! Anytime I can add ribbon and flowers and buttons I am a happy girl.
I own and operate a fabulous little scrapbook store where I get to play paper all day...my dream job! I teach classes every week and am so blessed to nurture close relationships with my students….they are like family to me now.
Looking forward to sharing my projects and being inspired by the other super talented folks 2014 Design Team." ~Ginny

I've known Ginny for a while now, having served on 2 design teams with her. She has an inspired imagination, and an amazing ability to make gorgeous projects that that are totally doable. I was drawn to her work as soon as I saw her amazing layers and her ability to combine patterned papers in a harmonious fashion. I know how much she loves G45, so I am tickled pink that she is on the team. You ain't seen nuthin' yet! LOL
