Description
journaling:
I hated printing photos
it began as a way to keep photos of my son. He came with no photos of the first four years of his life. I felt like I needed to document everything to make up for that loss.
I used power point at first and I was so impressed with myself.
I remember figuring out shadows. OH wow what a day!
We got a digital camera
and the photos were already
on the computer.
I was downloading freebies all the time, and finally figured out there were forums and galleries of other people doing digital scrapbook pages. I thought I was alone.
I did one hybrid scrapbook and it cost me almost $100 in supplies I could only use once.
there was a contest of new designers at a forum (since closed) and you could get their designs for free.
Make a page with them and help the designer be chosen to sell at the store
Charlie from Australia-I was amazed someone across the world was scrapping and she liked my pages and asked me to be on her team!
FREE STUFF
Four kids now, husband pastoring a church, moved to California and homeschooling. Scrapping was an easy thing to do while homeschooling. No clean up, and now I was on a few dozen teams. So, no overhead.
I now make gifts with my skills, from books, to bags. I have taught so many people how to use photoshop.
At my church, I make flyers, calendars, sign up sheets and many Sunday School crafts with the photoshop scrapbook skills
Accidentlyl,fell into Tangie's Art Journal Caravan and was hooked to Art Journaling. I could pour my emotions onto a page. I struggle with art on paper, but digitally, I could create the things in my head.
it is my self care-I can lose myself in creating now

Anne, this is perfect! I love how you blocked the journaling and loved reading your journey in scrapbooking. Love the big title brad and the stamps. Great page!!
 
Beautiful page Anne and very creative.. love the WHY all over in different colors and blend modes... really makes a huge statement and that brad with WHY enlarged in the middle almost makes it look like a magnifier! I loved reading your journaling. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful my friend!
 
SOoooo creative Anne! I'm pretty sure you are the reason why I couldn't resist titling my page for this challenge "Why" :heartlub I just adore the whimsical feel to this page. So very clever.
 
i'm lovin all the whys! you're always blowing me away with your creativity. wish i could be free enough to allow myself to create like this. i'm too much of a control freak :giggle
