Please join me and congratulating Carrie (wxgirl) on winning this month’s GSO with her wonderful layout, The Story. Using Photo Journal Templates 1, you voter's loved her layout with its combination of pink and orange with beautifully paired photo treatment that draws you in to read all the journaling! Carrie's layout captured our hearts -- its a definite STANDOUT!
Carrie told us a little about herself and this is what she said...
1. How long have you been digi-scrapping?
I started digiscrapping in October 2011, but I was a paper scrapper long before that.
2. What is your favorite thing to scrap?
My most scrapped subject is probably my kids, but I also like to scrap about the weather and the awesome clouds we see along the Front Range [Carrie was an Air Force meteorologist; wx=weather]. I also try to make an album for each summer vacation, but sadly I have a poor track record with actually finishing those albums before the next summer.
3. What is your favorite Liz product?
My favorite Liz product.....a tough descision....I do love those photo journal templates, but also the state-shaped templates.
4. What element is a kit incomplete without?
I love stitching....as long as it is clean...and staples. I have this almost obsessive need for my pages to feel realistic, and to mean that means that things are obviously anchored. And brackets. And recently I've fallen in love with paint splatters.
5. What layout are you working on now or plan to start?
I always have a new project that I'm either planning or working on! I have summer bucket list that I did hybrid cards for, along with a really cool distressed frame that I made from an estate sale find....we're dutifully working our way through that bucket list. I'm also doing a variation on photo-a-day where you take a photo at the same time each day and then do something with them. I'm still working on the "something" but they'll probably end up printed out as 4x4" blocks. And I'm trying to finish my Summer Vacation 2012 album so that I can start on 2013 as soon as we get back!
Thank you to all you voters! Random-dot-org selected number 5, snipinfool, as the winner of $5 to Liz's store in the Vote and Win drawing!
