I just adore her whimsical personality and I am sure that I am not alone in celebrating the excitement of her new home at The Lilypad. If you are new to ForeverJoy Designs now is the perfect time to try out her style, while it's on sale!We asked Renne to tell us a little bit about her scrapping style and this is what she had to say:"I would say that my style is to tell a story first- and usually I do that by focusing on one moment in time.
