"Hello!!
My name is Raquel, though I’m known as Tati Scrap in the craft´s world.
The name "Tati" is in memory to my lovest dog Tati....she died in 2013, the year I started to be a crafter ...it is my tribute to her.
I´m 40 years old, I was born in Cádiz City, Spain, where the weather is always warm and sunny!
I am married to an amazing man, Ramon, and we have five dogs!!
I'm a emergencies nurse ..love my profession.
When I discovered Graphic 45 collections in June of 2013, it challenges me... they inspired all, and I do not need nothing else that my nurse scissors and many ideas in my mind.
I am honoured to have been a part of the awesome Graphic 45 family this year like Spain Ambassador... It is. a DREAM!!
I love papercrafting, a world of creativity that I adore with Graphic 45 company!!"

"Hello
My name is Yumi Muraeda and I live in Yokohama, Japan with my husband and daughter
I have an experience as a graphic designer and toy designer at long time ago in US
Full with joy that I can craft every day
I am really grateful that I can participate in the members of the new design team as ambassador this time
Thank you so much all member of Graphic 45 I am so appreciate from bottom of my heart
I always get a variety of inspiration when I look at the paper, I start making the story from there
I usually often far-fetched lol, but in production l make the work along the story which I made
When I directly can reach the finished it is great , but I do trial and error many times
I always thinking about people’s happiness, when the people see my work then laughing like he-he and surprising like wow that time I feel so happy
This year I am going to make something fun and simple one, and other one is even it is to difficult to make but something to put beside longtime
I will work hard creating to make people happy so please every one nice to meet you !!
