About Nicolette

Dear scrapbook people,

Please let me introduce myself.
My name is Nicolette Verhouden. I am born and raised in the Netherlands.
Eleven years ago I started my own company. As a teacher I’m giving computer courses, typewriting courses and teach children who are having mental problems. I really love my job! This was my first dream which I wanted to realize. The name of my company is “Stema education.” The name Stema is coming from my two sons, Ste-fan and Ma-rcel.

Five years ago I first heard about scrapbooking. After some research I really got excited about this hobby. I lost my hart to it!

Three years ago I had a wonderful dream that has all to do about scrapbooking.
Clouds came over me…
My idea was to create new designs of scrapbooking albums.

So that’s the way how my adventure started. I started to draw, designing, thinking, talking, calling..…. Within a few months my ideas from my dream began to become reality.
Different shapes of albums in different themes were born.

From idea to actual production was also one big adventure. (You can take that for granted!!).

And after many days & nights of working, I finally came to a point that at this moment, all the kits are ready for production in order to give pleasure to all the scrapbookers in the world!

I’m very fond of children it was very important for me that the companies who are producing the scrapbooks, are not working with children. Therefore, all the scrapbooks are “child labour” free!

I wish you, while making your scrapbook, “all the success in the world!” and hope that you will enjoy your scrapbooking hobby.
