Exciting News

I'm thrilled to announce that I've been asked to join the quick page team at Creative Victorian Designs. What's a quick page team you ask? A quick page team designs printables to be sold as add-ons or stand alones for scrapbook kits. So I will be designing things such as brag books, bookmarks, greeting cards and shape albums (scallop, bracket, cd, etc.) Lonetta's existing team has created some incredibly lovely albums, so I have a lot to live up to. I'm very proud to be one of them. Lonetta has always been one of my very favorite designers. Her quality is impecable and her designs are gorgeous. I've show a copy of one of her kits above. You can find this one and many more at http://www.creativevictorian.com.

National Scrapbooking Day

Actually weekend would be more accurate. I've been having a lot of fun visiting the various sites and participating in the challenges. And yes, shopping as well. I've certainly done my share of that.

The photo above is one of my mother and grandmother created with the kit, Vintage White by Lily. A gorgeous kit and I plan on treating myself to another kit by Lily this weekend. Yes, Sunday evening and my shopping is still going strong. Unfortunately, my budget is not.

Freebie Mini Kit

Here is a mini kit freebie that I created recently for the April Designer Challenge at Hummie's World (www.hummiesworld.com). I love the palette that Christine Smith chose for this challenge. I am definitely drawn to bright happy colors this spring and my garden and yard are cooperating. The azaleas are now in bloom along with the dogwoods and I am enjoying every minute of it.

Here is the link:

I just finished up the challenges at Creative Victorian Designs (www.creativevictorian.com) for the month of April with this layout. I had just purchased the kit Ma Passion by Marta and all of the elements and the background are from it. I'm always so excited to scrap with a new kit as soon as I get it.

I love the quote for this month's challenge: Imagination Rules the World. I definitely believe that it does. If we cannot imagine something, we cannot create it and it cannot become a part of our world. Perhaps one of the problems in the world today is that we cannot truly imagine world peace, we cannot truly envision a world where are people are adequately clothed and fed and educated. Yes, we do give it lip service, but I believe that there is a huge gap between intellectually believing something and imaginatively believing it. When it enters the realm of the imagination, we feel it at the deepest levels, and therefore are on the first step to actually creating it.

So for today, I wish you the joy of imagination.

More Photos From the Attic


This is another photo I found in a box in the attic. I was so surprised to find it as I had never seen it before. A very lovely photo of my mother with my grandmother. They both look so young and lovely here. As my mother aged she began to look more and more like my grandmother, but already I can see the resemblance in this photo.

Credits: the background paper and elements are from the kit Vintage White by Lily.

I'm a scrapbook addict. I've been involved with digital scrapabooking since July 2009, when my daughter introduced me to her favorite hobby. When I'm not scrapbooking (hmm, when exactly is that?), I'm enjoying life with my family including my two daughters and two grandsons, my husband Clemens and my Cavalier Spaniel, Vinnie. My hobbies include photography, reading, biking, and hiking.
