Please give a big Pencil Lines welcome to thsi weeks guest designer, Liz "Paislee Press" Lee. Liz also provided this weeks sketch and digital template.
Hello! I am so very thrilled to have the honor of being a guest designer for Pencil Lines this week (thanks for the invite Annie!). My name is Liz and I live in Southern California with my husband and 15 month old daughter, Audrey. We are expecting baby #2 this June!
Things that make me happy? Freshly laundered sheets, Jack Johnson songs, dymo labeler, handwritten notes, the smell of freshly ground coffee, jeans + flip flips, Maui, spending time with family, organizational gadgets, anthropologie, jazz, vintage anything, my daughter's laugh.
I started scrapbooking in 2004 and immediately fell in love with it. Like so many of you, I find the creative process of documenting memories to be therapeutic and nurturing for the soul. In 2005 I decided to dabble in digital scrapbooking. My original plan was to use photoshop to make mock layouts, test out ideas, etc. that I would later execute on paper. I never did get around to turning ANY of my digital layouts into actual paper layouts. Nor did I ever finish my wedding album for that matter!!! What I ended up discovering is that (*gasp*), I actually prefered digital scrapbooking because it suited my minimalist sensibilities. I also discovered that I enjoyed making digital elements almost as much (if not more) than creating layouts. Today, I feel very fortunate to be able to say that I am now a digital designer (selling under the name paislee press) and that I get to "do what I love" for a living! To see my digital designs, check out my blog or my shop.
Here are the design team layouts.
