New designers worthy of your attention!

I am wrapping up a class with JessicaSprague.com called The Art of Digital Design. Through it, I have had the pleasure of interacting with – and learning alongside – a group of talented designers who are also just dipping their toes into the world of digital scrapbooking product design.

Please take a few minutes to visit their blogs. I think you’ll be inspired by their creativity, and you might even find a kit or two to purchase for your own layouts!

(And stay tuned. As more of us get our sites up and going, I’m likely to be adding to this list!)

Art of Digital Design Blog Roll

Keep an eye on these ladies! You might be getting a glimpse of The Next Big Thing in digital scrapbook design!

(And AODD ladies, did I miss you? Please leave a comment, and I’ll be sure to add you, too!)

(Updated 05/14/11: I will continue to keep my AODD blogroll updated, but from now on, I’ll just update the list in the right column, rather than trying to keep both this list and the one at right current. So check out that list at right (My fellow newbie digital designers) for a better list of new scrappers’ sites to check out!)

Introducing Graphic Nature!

Graphic Nature Mega PackI am thrilled to introduce to you my first digital scrapbooking series: Graphic Nature!

This series is inspired by the colors we so frequently find in photos of our families hiking, camping, vacationing in the mountains and doing anything else outdoors, especially in the spring and summer: deep green, blue, brown and cream.

My family and I love hiking at state parks and visiting local park playgrounds every spring and summer. We also make an annual trip to Colorado to visit family. As a result, I have TONS of photos with blues, greens and browns to scrapbook! Unfortunately, finding kits that match my needs for those colors is often a challenge, and I find myself frequently using either solid colors or altering kit elements and papers to make them match my photos.

Not any more! This kit has everything I need to scrapbook those photos. With 18 papers (available in the paper pack and mega pack) in both bold, dark colors and lighter colors perfect for backgrounds, plus a ton of elements, I am really enjoying scrapping those photos now!

I am a simple, graphic-style scrapbooker, so you’ll find that the elements and papers are not overly grungy or complex, but they’re not too simple or boring, either. Instead, these elements and papers will help you create layouts that are clean and classic – pages you’ll love for years to come! 🙂

I hope you enjoy Graphic Nature! Purchase it by following the links below, and please let me know how you use the kit! I would love to see your artwork!

Welcome to Pixels and Pix!

It’s a brand new day for me, and I’m so glad you’re here to share it!

As my friends and family know, I am absolutely, positively passionate about digital scrapbooking, and I just can’t seem to get enough of it. I have been paper scrapbooking (in the modern sense) since 1997, when my husband and I were first engaged, and I loved it. But in 2006, I found digital scrapbooking and made my first digital album – a tribute album to my grandmother who had recently passed away. I knew right then that I was hooked.

But my kids’ albums were all paper, and I wasn’t sure how I would combine paper and digital forms. So at first, I decided I would make family albums digital and the kids’ albums paper. Well, the more I got into digital scrapbooking, the more I loved it, and before long, pretty much all of my layouts were digital. It was just easier, more flexible and didn’t require photo prints! (I’m terrible about printing my photos!)

Flash forward to 2011. For my birthday this year, my husband bought me a digital scrapbooking class on JessicaSprague.com, and I later learned about a class she offered for digital designers who might be interested in selling their product. That was just enough to get my wheels turning. I had considered selling for a while, but I honestly didn’t think I wanted to dive into another business. Still, I couldn’t get the idea out of my head, so I decided to jump in feet first and just do as much or as little as I can, completely on the side.

So welcome to that new adventure: Pixels and Pix. I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I think I will!

Watch for more soon!
