About Us
We are husband-and-wife team Sharon Horswill and John Mangan. We teach classes in the Southampton/Bournemouth area and all around the world on cruise ships. Classes vary from one-to-one or a talk to a large group. We can teach any level of digital scrapbooking in any program and lots of apps.
Sharon does the scrapbooking while John stands behind her muttering about "too much stuff" going on the pages. Both do the teaching and guest lecturing. If you get lost and end up in the wrong room you might hear John doing a talk on preserved railways and financial matters (not in the same talk...)
Sharon:
I've always been crafty and our house is full of quilting, embroidery, knitting crochet etc. I started digi scrapping in the early days when it had barely been invented and and I'm so impressed at the way the hobby has developed. Most of all I love helping others create their own scrapbooks.
Come and join us in our cruise classes. It's a laugh. We'll also each you how to use lots of apps on your phone and ipad and do things you never thought you could do - or thought only your grandchildren could do ;-)
John:
I'm a boring accountant and ...
"Too Much Stuff."

Yes, we do look very young in those photos (Caronia cruise 2004). We look exactly the same now. Also I have a problem with my nose growing longer.

Telephone:
We're happy to chat but don't put our phone numbers on websites. Please email first or find us on Facebook.
On board ship - our cabin number is on the class handouts.
If you see Sharon with a laptop any time you can grab some help with your scrapbooking and see lots more slideshows. If she's holding a camera you can join her in a tour round the ship to take the best shots or be in the class scrapbook. If she's knitting she'll still chat but not when counting stitches...
If you see John in a bar any time you can join him for a beer. Or he occasionally drinks cocktails.
