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 :)
Type of Project
Digital Scrapbook LayoutDescription
This is my Oma, who celebrated her 93rd birthday last week. She doesn't have any wedding photos, so I put together this layout for a 5x7 frame from an early photo as a birthday gift.

This is so very beautiful... A perfect gift, she must have enjoyed this present a lot! Thanks for sharing, I might have to lift this one! ;)
Thanks, Emily!
This is awesome! I love how you put it all together!
Your right, Chitra - Oma is grandmother in German. I was wishing I had some German wire words instead of the English one - but I didn't leave myself enough time to figure out how to create them.
By Oma I take it you mean your grandmother...and how very sweet of you to do this for her! God Bless her on her birthday!
