The poll has a drop-down menu but the arrow doesn't show because it's too wide. The menu will come up if you click on the answer box.

Would you like me to offer commercial licenses?

A Day of Firsts

Welcome to my blog! My name is Lina, and I am a 27-year-old full-time student. I also work full-time but love to scrapbook when I get a chance. I first started scrapbooking in 2004 and switched to digital scrapbooking a couple of years later.

From the start, I loved using sketches to help me get pages done. Becky Higgins, of course, was my idol. I would use her sketches to plan my pages out on the computer first, scanning in my pictures and papers to use in positioning everything exactly how I wanted them before creating the actual pages. Needless to say, when I discovered digital scrapbooking, I instantaly fell in love!

I still used sketches to plan my pages and sometimes I even scanned in the sketches to help me place everything on my digital pages. I wished there was an easier way to use the sketches and then found out there was! Digital templates were an amazing thing in my eyes. I liked the sketches I was using and realized I could create a template with that sketch. Then I could use that one template to create as many pages as I liked.

I recently began creating my own sketches and turning them into templates. And that's the reason I created my first blog! I wanted to share my templates to help others get their pages done. I am hoping to post at least one new template a week, so please come back often!

Here are my first two templates:

TYVM these templates look great! I started as a paper scrapper and loved Becky Higgin's sketches. Wish she had made them digital!
