My Creative Process


I was recently given the challenge to create a layout featuring "me". I realized that most of my pages are about memories rather than a statement about a person, place or thing. What a delightful approach. I don't recall ever having so much fun creating a layout. My perspective adjusted to the conceptual rather than a story telling mode. I felt so free. I never realized how I let the photographs restrict me. I was completely uninhibited by details and I was able to scrapbook from the heart. I didn't think it was possible to enjoy scrapbooking anymore than I already did but to my surprise, I did.

  1. I love the flow through the layout; how the circles lead your eye around the page.
    I can see why you had so much fun with it!

    love your layout!
