Hi everyone! Let us introduce ourselves

[mirjam]

Hello everyone!

First off I would like to thank all of you for the awesome warm welcome here at Sweet Shoppe!!!
Me and my team are really happy to be here.

Now we've already seen a lot of familiar faces but also many many new ones that of course we would like to get to know better.
We thought it might be fun to introduce ourselves through our scrapping since we all have that in common.
And for this we took the idea of the This and That challenges!

Before I start I need to also say that I have had NO time to scrap even a single page in the past 2 years. You will see that my gallery here is totally empty
I really hope I will be able to make scrap again from time to time but to give you a bit of an idea of my creations... here's 2 collages of pages I made in the past:





Now...let's talk about my scrapping style.....



In my heart I am definitely a mix and match scrapper. I add a photo to page and then I go looking for the element that I need. I will use the search option to screen all my kits for let's say a 'blue flower'.
I am also definitely a blank canvas scrapper. I do use templates but not very often. Maybe it's the designer part of me that loves to have total creative control...LOL
I am a clean scrapper but sometimes I am a add everything to the page scrapper. For me it's the subject that decides what I think is needed. Some topics need only a little embellishing and others need lots. For instance if I am scrapping my latest crocht critter. I want it to take center stage which means little embellishing lots of white space. If I am scrapping about my feelings or emotions I find I need every inch of the paper most of the time...

** post update **

I am posting our blank "this or that" image here so anyone that wants to use it can grab it
