In the last year I have been concentrating a lot on basic design &amp; color principles. With these concepts in mind while creating; no matter what I'm doing it will help me make a visually pleasing layout. I like lots of layers &amp; a lump page. Ribbon &amp; buttons are my favorite embellishments. Heritage <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">scrapbooking</span> is quickly becoming a passion - I love working with old photos &amp; telling those stories.<br /><br />The starting point with my layouts is usually the story I want to tell. I may or may not even have photos to capture that memory. Photos are only part of a layout to me... the story is just as important so I usually have a lot of handwritten <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">journaling</span> on my layouts. I also let that story/photos guide me on colors &amp; style of the layout. Every color can invoke a different emotion or bring out the best/worst in a particular photo so it's a careful choice of auditioning different colors at the beginning of the design.<br /><br />I scrap all sizes of albums from 12x12 on down to 6x6. I also love to do theme mini books. They are great for gifts. I sell cards locally at small gift shops &amp; by special order.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size:130%;">Techniques</span> </span><br />I am an "experimenter". How do you know if you like something if you don't try it... right? I also enjoy playing around with techniques to improve them or make them my own. In this economy I'm trying to stretch my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">scrapbooking</span> dollars; but, I still want the look of the newest products out there. I spend a lot of time trying to achieve that desired look with what I have on hand. My favorite money saver right now is the layered letters/shapes I cut with my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Cricut</span>. Perfect replacement for those <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Thickers</span> we all love so much &amp; the best thing about that is I can have them in any size, color, style I need for a particular layout.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" >**** Published Layouts ****</span><br />"Welcome to Our Home"<br />Scrapbook News &amp;
