March 2015 Blog Train

What a fun month! I've been looking forward to seeing everyone's animal kits. Be sure to check out the full list here. My animal probably isn't much of a surprise if you know me. I die a small cuteness death every time I see one.

PS: The wood panda is a hugging panda. If you put it on top of a photo, it will hug you. You're welcome.

I used everything in this layout:

Also, don't miss the new Facebook Freebie, which are some fun panda stamps. I will admit to you that these doodles are a product of extreme laziness. I did the drawing in my notebook in a pencil. Ideally, you would clean it up with a pen and then scan, etc. But I was lazy and thought, "I'll just take a photo, with my phone, of these pencil doodles. I'm sure that will be fine." My laziness turned into a stamp effect, that looked cool and Asian to me. So, you know. Laziness works too I guess.

Winter Layout Madness Success

By Marisa Lerin Fri, 02/27/2015 - 10:16

The Pixel Scrapper community made over 600 layouts for our Winter Layout Madness! Great job everyone! Everyone is sharing a favorite layout here, but I thought I'd cheat and show lots of favorites. It's good being in charge ;)

Of course, even with the cheating, these are still only some of my favorites. There's so much creativity going on in the gallery it's really hard to choose! You can see all the layouts here.

About Me

Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at Pixel Scrapper a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. Pixel Scrapper has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!

I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!

I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!

If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at Pixel Scrapper where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.
