About Me
I discovered digital scrapbooking through a magazine at my dentist's office when my girls were toddlers. I downloaded GIMP shortly thereafter, and the rest is history. My teenagers aren't nearly as cute to scrap now as they were then - but I still love documenting who we are as a family. And hey, occasionally now my layouts don't even include my kids :P
I sometimes even get to use the skills I learned digital scrapbooking for my work (I do communications for a nonprofit ministry that provides educational opportunities for kids in Guatemala)
Besides digital scrapbooking, I enjoy geocaching, hiking, x-country skiing, hanging around with international students, reading, stewarding a little free library, and cheering on my family at their many races . . .
Oh, and I'm Canadian, eh? We put two Ls in journalling and a U in colour on purpose :)

As we were driving out to this hike, we saw a billboard for the Jasper Glacier Skywalk advertising "Epic Made Easy". Our unanimous consensus was that epic is NOT supposed to be easy . . . and I've wanted to make this scrapbook page ever since.

Thanks so much Celestine! This is actually part of a two-page layout. Did you get to see page 2 as well?

Just ran across this layout, Teddy. It is really terrific. Love the journaling.
Thanks Jen! What a wonderful comment to end the year on :)
I can't use enough words to say how much I LOVE THIS. Texture, layout, creative journaling, color composition.
@retha - I used the blending mode 'darken only' on the photo, so the fabric behind actually shows through where the white snow should be.
Like how the text and the snow on the rock both look 'dotted'
What an awesome page, I love the masked photo with the smaller inset photo too.
that photo is awesome! I love the masking and how you used the polaroid
Love the monochromatic feel
I love the art journaling look of this layout! Lovely way of incorporating text with the photos.
