About Me
Hello! My name is Lorien and I am a thirty-something years-old from São Paulo, Brazil, married for almost a decade, and proud kitten mom.
I got in contact with DigitalScrapbook.com before it was the amazing site you´re seeing, when I was looking for some assets for hybrid scrapbooking. I enjoyed it so much that I´m on this site since the closed beta. I was a beginner back then and I learned a lot here, and soon became forum moderator as a way to give a little back. It was because of DigitalScrapbook.com that I started designing too. It prooved a really useful skill for my small craft business.

Digital Scrapbook LayoutDescription
When I saw the layout proposed to it, the first thing that called me attention was that the layout was very "verticalized", although full of horizontal lines, and I tried to reproduce it. And the first thing that I deceided was that I´d like to use washi tape, a material that I never used before (not even in "real paper" scrapping).
Next, I realised that Bedouin Nights kit had almost all things that I needed... except the notebook background, which is a file that I also found here!
Work with the washi tapes and transparent paper was very hard, and I had some problems to add shadows. The result wasn´t as good as I´d like it to be, but I still liked it!
And I made the third page of my 5th kitten´s diary!
(Yeah, my living room is decorated with a HUGE vintage world map. Later I plan to make a page showing it properly )

Beautiful!
Thank you! It´s an old one and, seing it now, I see how I have improoved. Need to re-open the .psd and tweak the shadows...
It may not have turned out as you want it to, but it is a very successful page. Thank you for sharing it and your story.
I love all the little extras. And the fun journaling in different places
what a great page, I was deciding on whether or not i wanted to get the glitter papers from the Bedouin kit, you've sold me!
I could never resist an animal layout, very cute cat, love the colours
i'm not sure what it says, but I LOVE this layout!!! i love how you used those glittery triangles and how you've placed the word art. great job!!! :)
What a creative layout! And what an adorable looking kitten!
Don't hate my... but I'm not really a cat person. However, you made it look really lovable. The layout is great. I have long been struggling with all the washi tape I have in my archive, not really knowing how to use it best. But now I know - Thanks :0)
XOXO
wonderful interpretation Lórien!!! I especially like the triangle glittered circle embellishment and all the washi tapes!!! well done!
Great layout. I love the placement of all the assets and journaling.
Lorien - I too love shadows! I find that if I put the light source ABOVE (so the shadows below) that it has a more realistic look. But that is just my opinion...as soon as I earn enough points I can post some of my layouts (brand new as I type this) - I can't even take on this challenge!
Have a good week!
Fun! Love all the little details you've put in here.
Love the supplies you chose, including the washi tape! Great job! Sweet kitty, too!
Really nice one :)
wow! i like it!
