About Shellye McDaniel

My name is Shellye McDaniel from DeKalb, Texas. I've been married for almost 27 years, have three children and work as an Administrative Assistant at a local school. I have been a part of quite a few manufacturer design teams since 2011 but took a brief hiatus this past year to focus on my new job. I literally love all sorts of crafting! Paper crafting, embroidery, planners, hand-lettering, mini albums, cards and recycled crafts. I also enjoy decorating my farmhouse home, junk-tiquing, shopping with my daughter, and watching any and all things Hallmark Channel :) I’m so looking forward to being a part of the Scrapbook Adhesives Design Team!
