Nathalie Séguin
I have been a member of the FOREVER pixels2Pages team since January 2021 and loving it! I was born in Montreal but have called Ottawa, the capital of Canada, home since 1972. I have been glued to my best friend and husband George since we met in 1987. I am “maman” to my 2 amazing sons who have chosen great partners and thus I have inherited 2 beautiful daughters. I am the eldest of a family of 3 girls plus 2 stepsiblings. I am blessed to still have my parents which I get to see regularly. I started scrapbooking in 1997 the good old-fashioned way, and quickly transitioned to digital when Storybook Creator was first introduced. Beyond scrapbooking, some of my favourite activities include cooking, reading, writing, decorating, traveling, eating out, shopping in little boutiques, going to farmers’ markets, binge watching some awesome series and spending as much time as possible at our cottage.
