Featured: Creative Spraguemates

I am honored to be one of the two creative spraguemates featured in the inaugural spotlight of creative team members at JessicaSprague.com. If you're coming here from Jessica Sprague's blog, welcome to my little blog :)

I didn't mention it in my bio, but Jessica is the one who introduced me to hybrid scrapbooking through her Photoshop Fridays back in 2006 as well as her idea books on digi scrapbooking. I love how she scrapbooks about everyday life and how clever she is in her title and journaling and photographic choices. So I am beyond honored to be on her creative team today!

For fun, I wanted to share one of my early pages using a Jessica Sprague digital kit freebie back in 2006! How long ago that seems. I only had one daughter then and was just beginning to get the hang of Photoshop CS2 (the same version I use now!)

7/14/06: "I used Jessica Sprague's digital freebie kit she had on her blog{this was back in 2006}. Thanks Jessica! Credits: Everything by Jessica Sprague's Digital Freebie Kit Font: Dymo downloaded form dafont dot com"

 And a page using a Jessica Sprague kit in 2009 when my 2nd daughter was born:


brand new sisters | Jessica Sprague EZ PZ Template 1, mini kit


And my most recent digital layout using the mini kits from the birthday bloghop:

zara and sofia | 4ever bloghop cluster by cathy pascual (using elements by queen of quirk, in the making, echo park, kitschy digitals, carina gardner) + blue paper by queen of quirk + glitter spill by kari holt + bar code tag + starlets by liv.edesigns

It's amazing to me to see how my style has changed (more layering, drop shadows and design sense) yet stayed the same (still focused on the everyday, photos of family, relatively clean design).
If you want to see more of work, you can check out my gallery at Jessica Sprague. I also have a gallery here (which has a lot of my early, early work including just paper layouts).

Thanks for stopping by!
