About Me

Hey scrappy friends! I live in MN with my husband and 4 kids (21, 18, 13 and 6) I started scrapbooking 20 years when my first son with one. It didn’t come easy for me in the beginning but I LOVED my pictures so much that I wanted them to shine and I wanted our memories recorded alongside them. I persisted and found my scrappy voice. I have loads of physical scrapbooks that I love! We have lived all over the country and I have packed up and hulled my scrapbook supplies along. It is usually one of the first rooms I unpack!

Once my third son was born (along the smart phone with it’s endless stream of photo taking capabilities) I became bogged down with photos! I then started digital scrapbooking and pocket page scrapping. While I still physical scrapbook, I now get most of my pages done in the Project Life app…on my phone, in the car, on the plane, in bed! I need my scrapping to be fast, flexible and on-the-go to stay current!

I started designing pocket card kit in 2020 at the onset of the global pandemic. I really want my photos to shine so I love a clean, minimal style with a lot of white space. I really enjoy creating color palettes, patterns and word art. Sometimes a find a little grunge to go a long way too!
