Hello, I'm here today to talk to you about color. I love color and I'm not afraid to use it, mostly because of what I've learned in my 20+ years scrapbooking and what I learned in design school. My hope is that after reading this post you will be more inclined to step out of your comfort zone! Before we dive into the world of color I want to first give you some definitions that often are confusing when we talk about color and can be seen on most color wheels....

I can't believe it's 2022 already. The older I get, the more time seems to fly. It seems like only yesterday that my oldest daughter was a baby. She's 19 and finished her first semester of college at Montclair State University. It's one of the reasons I'm glad I started to scrapbook 20 years ago. Time is fleeting and it's nice to be able to look back on the memories we've made....

Hello Story Keepers, I hope you are well and enjoying the summer. I have spent the last 5 weeks taking my daughter Faith back and forth to Montclair State University for a Summer program that provided Incoming Freshmen a chance to experience college life and take 2 classes. It was completely free but had no housing on the weekends so I had to pick her up on Thursday and take her back on Sunday....

Hey Storytellers, I hope you all are well and busy creating, I know that I have been. I want to talk to you today about the supplies we all use everytime we create, items like adhesive, cardstock, foam squares, etc...All the things that don't look pretty but we have to have them in order to create. These items are a necessity and the cost can add up!...

Hello and Welcome! I finally finished my scrapbook area. I love it! There are no longer stacks on the floor and I know where everything is! One 4x1 and 4x2 Kallax units on their sides. I’ve had this setup for a while and I like the extra long top laying the Kallax units on the side gives me....

Note: Each week I will be exploring design fundamentals and how they are used in scrapbooking. Some of which you use without even knowing it! The visual triangle: What is it and how is it used in both scrapbooking and graphic design. A visual triangle is an invisible triangle formed when design elements are arranged around the page to create movement, define the focal point and allow the reader to quickly scan to the important parts of your page....

I hope you are all well and you had a great weekend. I know I did. With summer winding down my kids are trying to get the most out of every moment! Today, I want to share a few photos I've taken on a recent photoshoot I did of my amazing BFF and her husband. The setting of this photoshoot was at a park with a large covered gazebo and I made sure to arrive early so that I could shoot some test shots to figure out the best settings and to find locations within the park that would make perfect settings for her portraits.

Are you like me and find yourself reorganizing and cleaning your craft area by accident? I hate when I can't find something I know I have!! I reorganized my scrapbook area a few weeks ago looking for a collection I wanted to use on a series of photos I was scrapping. The clean area..or so I thought. It was functional and though it looks like there's not a lot of room between my chair and the cube bookcase it was roomy. [ 588 more words ]
