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
Journalling reads: We "adopted" a homeless hot tub just before the weather turned cold and just before health orders restricted social gatherings even outside. We've been in just about every day since - sometimes twice or even three times a day. We've enjoyed sunshine and snow, we've watched meteor showers, and we've appreciated our back yard in a new way. We've had long discussions about random topics, we've listened to podcasts, and sometimes we've just enjoyed the quiet. It's nice to have a "destination" right in our back yard! Nov 2020
