Scrapbook Style
I have a very eclectic style. While I often create
layouts with a clean look and classic lines, you might
also find me creating collage style layouts. I prefer
creating "moment" layouts, rather than "event" layouts.
I excel at handcutting intricate titles, and
I love tearing, so many of my layouts feature these techniques.
I am also a lumpy scrapper who loves using a broad variety of
embellishments and textures. Telling the story behind my
photos is very important to me, so I strive to journal well.
