Welcome

Now that the leaves are turning colors and quickly falling to the ground, I find myself in the mood to capture the autumn mood on my scrapbook pages. If you are also in the fall mood, try to recreate it with colors, textures and even describing sounds in your journaling. Fall is such a beautiful time of year! Why not include it in your artwork as well?

Happy Scrapping!

One Sketch, Three Designs
Sketches By: Michelle Josie

scrapbooking tip
To organize your small tools that you most often use, purchase a spinning table/counter top caddy for kitchen utensils. These can be found at any kitchen supply store. Fill it with your favorite scissors, rulers, pens, cutting knife, bone folder and other tools to have quick and easy access while you are working.
