I’d like to tell you a story about a girl who felt nothing but distain for the the sad, sad world of scrapbooking. She had friends who scrapbooked, and sad to say she had far too much pride to stoop to cheesy cut outs pasted on top of square photos. Nope. Nothing doin’. Then one day one of her most artistic friends introduced her to the blooming new world of papers and embellishments and she was hooked. Still…it was a bit pricey to create that amazing scrapbook page… and it took a lot of tools and time and required space and no interruptions!! Around this time the girl in our story welcomed her first little boy into the world… my, wasn’t he beautiful?!! And didn’t he deserve to have the amazing story of his life’s beginning told right… with art and poetry and inspiration?? What could be done? So she did her best and soon became buried under the pile of laundry and dishes and the day to day and before you could count to 3, there she was with 2 precious little boys and amazingly a tiny baby girl to round out the scene!
Now, at this time our heroine had been working in Photoshop quite a bit and was longing to use this powerful tool to make art and she was (sometimes) even hopping from blog to blog to see what might be done about her heart’s desire to create art. And it was then that she (quite by accident) stumbled on the Spraground. She was inspired and signed up right away for the first class to be had…and the rest as they say is history.
this was the first layout I did in Jessica's class in 2007!!
