About Me
A mini-biography: Born and raised in the upper Midwest, lived in both rural and urban areas, disabled at age 30, spent time in eastern Tennessee but now living in Arkansas. Divorced, but dating an incredible man that I hope to spend the next 50-60 years with. I have a son in his mid-20s who's a US Navy submariner and a new daughter-in-law as of 2019.
I've been collecting scrap freebies for a while, making layouts for my photography scrapbook and more recently a young niece. I tend to be sort of seasonal with my interests, as photography in the cold aggravates fibromyalgia, and too much sunlight triggers lupus flareups--so I scrap a lot in summer and winter and enjoy spring and fall outdoors, often with a camera in hand. If I'm not shooting photos, training my mobility dog, or designing (mostly commercial-use items for my shop), I'm probably either watching anime or playing Steam games or one of several tabletop RPGs with my gaming group.

Description
I'm working on a new kit focused around the palette I've chosen for my capsule wardrobe; I envision using this to scrap lots of my life (it'll certainly go with most of the photos!), but I also want to use the papers to create a digital look book. The palette has a lot of neutrals, focused primarily in grayscale and blue, with khaki, burgundy, turquoise, teal, plum, fuchsia, and metallic silver rounding it out.
As a person with a chronic illness which affects my life on a regular basis, influencing everything from clothing choices to diet to what kind of light bulbs I use in my home, a spoon is a must-have item in a kit for my personal scrapping. It's a nod to the Spoon Theory written by Christine Miserandino of ButYouDontLookSick.com, wherein she uses a bunch of spoons to represent the often-finite amount of energy a chronically-ill person has for the day, and how even the simplest tasks that healthy folks do without thinking can quickly deplete that energy. It's not uncommon for me to tell my partner that I just don't have the spoons to do something without dipping into tomorrow's energy, and I need at least one element that can be used for those days.
I photographed and extracted this from one of many assorted spoons I've collected over the last 15 years.
