Nathalie from Magenta is Coming Back to Photo Scraps

Nathalie from Magenta is Coming Back to Photo Scraps!

We are so excited to have one of the creators of Magenta stamp company come visit us again.  Nathalie was here last year and many of you were able to take her technique filled class and shop their great truck show.  I have no idea how they got their whole warehouse in their car.



Nathalie Métivier started in her childhood to draw and exhibit her work. With her sister Hélène and Daniel, her brother-in-law, she helped, 20 years ago, to create Magenta Rubber Stamps. One of her many tasks is to be part of the creative team. She drew many of the images as well as she invented the "direct-to-paper" and the "Ghost" coloring techniques. In addition, she is a certified Ranger instructor. She appeared several times on Carol Duvall Show as well as on Magenta's own videos. She is co-author with Leslie Conron Carola of the books Magenta Style Paper Magic and Magenta Style Paper Enchantments. Most of all, she likes to share ideas and techniques with others.
