Two more influential scrapbookers
Catching up with some of the photos I took while I was in Kansas City… for some reason I didn’t get to take as many at my friend’s bridal shower as I had hoped so I have my fingers crossed that some of the other cameras that were there will share! But I do have this shot of the dessert bar! Red velvet cheesecake, dark chocolate brownies with fresh vanilla whipped cream and raspberries, lemon cupcakes, macarons in lemon, vanilla and raspberry (from Natasha’s), non-Oreo Oreos dipped in white chocolate and some Cadbury’s mini bars to add a bit of contrast. I don’t think we had any complaints! (But we better get planning for the wedding dessert bar now so it is an appropriately calorific follow-up!)

Today the blog tour visits Renee Pearson, digital scrapbooker, artist and educator. I’ve never met Renee but my goodness she makes gorgeous digital pages! You may know her work from Simple Scrapbooks and Digital Scrapbooking magazines, but you can also find her online at her very own website with lots of digital tips and tutorials. |
I love that Renee’s digital tutorials have options for both the scrapper who only has a little time to spare but still wants things to look polished (like getting the most from quick pages and templates) and those who want to dig deeper into an artistic style or technique to create a look that is all their own. And her production values are just amazing! Be sure to catch Renee’s blog a chance to win lots of prizes today.

Next on the MISA list is Margie Romney-Aslett, a girl who adores pink and paper and beautiful vintage trinkets. For many years, she was busy designing some of the most popular items from Making Memories and early this year she launched her very own line, The Girls’ Paperie, which is so very Margie, right down to the pink typewriters. |
Margie is such a woman on the go-go-go that I really, really want to know how she does it! She has a crazy travel schedule and one of the bounciest personalities I have ever met. If I didn’t know better, I would swear she had some sort of crazy secret to her energy, but I think it’s more likely that she is just driven by creativity and fun. If you ever get the chance to take a class from Margie, do not hesitate — just book and go! The girl is hilarious as well as fabulously talented so you will have a brilliant time. And a little known secret: I have been in a limo with Margie! (Another of the Influential Scrappers was there too!)
Visit Margie’s blog (named after a song I have long adored!) for a chance to win plus sneak peeks at her new collections ready to be released at CHA next week. Tinsel & Twig is most certainly going to make an appearance in my Christmas Journal this December! Can’t wait to see it hit the shops.
Which just leaves tomorrow on the MISA blog tour, and it will be my day to give away lots of fabulous prizes, so don’t forget to come by and enter! (Especially since the entries will close more quickly than most of my giveaways — it will be just one day!) See you then.
