One of my scrap crushes is Cathy Zielske. Her style is very graphic-designer with clean type and lined-up-everything but there’s also some room for play. She also got into card making at the exact same moment as I did (close enough) so I’m sure we would be fast friends in real life. Here is a […]
Here are two new layouts I made for Simple Scrapper. They are featured in the March issue of SPARK member magazine. I love the Simple Scrapper story starters…sometimes I need an inspiration nudge. This month’s ‘starters’ were all about favorites and I chose to put all my faves from January (because I work a couple […]

To play along, you simply subscribe to her email newsletter, download and use the free templates she sends out, and post your completed layout. Here is my layout using one of the two […]
(This post contains affiliate links for Simple Scrapper – We help scrapbookers focus on what matters most.) This week I am participating in the Simple Scrapper “Start Fresh” event. The event itself is short but the preparation it brings should carry me through the year. This class was kinda meant for me as I get […]
The other day I was reading a new post on the Scotty Girl Designs blog and was really moved by her willingness to talk about her struggles with depression. I’m not sure if it was sympathy, admiration or a connection but I was drawn to creating a page using her kits. I suppose the melancholy […]
Anita from Anita Designs came out with a gorgeous kit last week. I quickly found this baby photo of my youngest son and started to use the kit along with a template from Scotty Girl Designs to make this page. I didn’t have a story to tell, just wanted to play! And, well, that baby […]
I have done more scrapping this month then my entire scrap “career”. I think it’s been all the inspiration over at The Digital Press where I help with their Facebook and Pinterest pages. I’m very grateful this year to have been able to work for them and also for Simple Scrapper. I have often been overwhelmed with […]
