I love to tell stories. I love to take photos. I love to play with color. Scrapbooking gives me away to bring these loves together. I find inspiration in everyday events and objects - using the shapes and colors around me to record the little moments in my family's life that would otherwise be forgotten. My pages are detailed & whimsical, with layers of patterns and color anchored by embellishments and sewing.
