Happy Thursday! We are so excited that tomorrow is the big day when we get to share our entire creative team grid with you, but we still have two more designers to introduce, starting today with Virginia Nebel!

You may have seen Virginia work her design magic on a layout in our Cropped Facebook Lives, or have had the pleasure of learning from her at our Crop & Create Delivered events! Let’s learn a bit more about Virginia today!

I love adding texture to my projects. Layering ephemera with dimensional adhesive, creating titles with chipboard or foam letters, and using embossing folders on page backgrounds are just a few fun ways I add texture to my layouts.

 

As an empty-nester, I love scrapbooking present-day moments that have inter-connected stories to my past. For example, the layout about wrapping rice dumplings, every family has their recipe for Chinese ‘joong’ and I cherish the time making them with my Mom. When we were kids, my Mom would wrap or tie the knots on the joong differently because my brother preferred his with more peanuts and I liked mine with more mung beans. They are a labour2023 of love to make and I appreciate the homemade goodness in every bite so much more today!

 

 I am primarily a non-mixed media crafter but one technique that I’m loving lately is using stencil backgrounds. I love adding a touch of colour and stencil design on the white space of my layouts!

 

Dive right in to create a page and tell your story. Use products and techniques that bring you joy because scrapbooking should be fun! You will develop your style, and embrace the fun and excitement in your creative process!

 

In addition to my love for paper crafting, I’m very excited to start a few sewing projects and go down another rabbit hole of collecting pretty stuff!
