About Me
I was born and raised in Central Ohio, USA. I am a mother of 4 wonderful children, 2 boys and 2 girls, ages 24, 22, 19, and 17. I am Naani, to a 4 year old grandson! My life partner is Roy and he has 3 amazing boys, ages 16, 14, and 12.
I started paper scrapbooking in 1999, but it didn't last long, I found it expensive and hard to manage the collection of supplies and managing layouts when using a dining table to create, so I stopped sometime in 2000. I picked up digital scrapbooking in 2006, on a forum on the parenting site I was visiting daily. I also began designing professionally for Elemental Scraps and PickleBerryPop and a few other shops, but went on hiatus during a divorce and then again during my late adult college years. You may have seen me in other forums as rachelbrein or scarlettcharm.
I love scrapbooking. It serves 2 purposes for me. Creative outlet and preserving the random and poignant moments of my life.

what a cool mess this one is, makes me giggle with joy :)
I am most definitely NOT a "kit scrapper". One of the things I love most about DigitalScrapbook.com is that I can pick and choose from many kits to create my layouts!
Rachel you are a master at using select pieces from many kits and accomplishing a beautiful layout!
I might have to lift this one! :)
I love the stitched down doily and the scatterings of small elements
This is just darling! I can't even pick a favorite part!
