What if you had the time for scrapbooking all along?

SYW204 - My Way with Yin Goh Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

I've been a fan of Yin Goh since my earliest days as a scrapbooker. In fact, her templates were often featured in my weekly product posts back when Simple Scrapper was a daily blog.
Today Yin is an avid hybrid scrapbooker, creating most often with Ali Edwards products. As our February featured artist, her work inspired our latest style challenge inside the membership.
This episode explores Yin's perspective in memory keeping, as well as the techniques that do (and do not) work well for her. I enjoyed 'meeting' her after so many years in same creative circles.

SYW203 - My Way with Sarah Kee Jan 22, 2023

Show notes

Within the first 5 minutes of my conversation with Sarah Kee, I knew this episode would be a good one. She disclosed her struggle with anxiety, something we share in common, as an invitation to document more of your real story.
Our discussion covers Sarah's favorites, as always, but one of her big lessons learned has been the therapeutic nature of creating. While not a substitute for professional help, what we do as scrapbookers is powerful and important.
Personally, I felt comforted hearing someone else put words to so much of my own story. I hope it offers ease and insight to you as well.

SYW202 - Focusing on Bucket List Projects Dec 30, 2022

Show notes

As memory keepers, we often feel a tension between the everyday moments and the big stories of our past. When I overhead Simple Scrapper member Jenn Slowik mention that 2023 would be all about 'legacy projects' for her, I knew that this would be a good discussion.

Our conversation includes what circumstances led to this shift for Jenn and how she views these projects in context with others. We connect her vision with our Bucket List Story concept, peeling back layers of why we scrapbook and how that can shift over time.

SYW201 - Finding a Cohesive Creative Process Dec 30, 2022

Show notes

When I noticed that Simple Scrapper member Youngmi An was sharing beautifully consistent, story-filled work across all formats, I had to learn more. This was clearly someone who had found her style and a creative process to bring it to life again and again.

In this episode we chat about how Youngmi scrapbooks, including how she turns inspiration into a completed page and the observations she's made about her future. There are very few mentions of specific products, which leaves me wondering if scrapbooking 'your way' is really about the stuff at all.

SYW200 - The Snowball Effect Dec 21, 2022

Show notes

When I noticed the episode numbers inching closer to 200, I knew exactly who I wanted to have back on the show: Kim! Though she has stepped back from the business side of Simple Scrapper, she's still an active community member.

I knew our listeners would want to hear how she's been, along with her perspective on a range of questions. Our conversation touches on so many topics, but you'll notice a thread of how we maintain momentum and leverage 'the snowball effect' in our scrapbooking.

SYW199 - Finding a Crafty Community Dec 12, 2022

Show notes

I can still see myself dancing around the house singing "Starlite-Rainbow Brite, A little wish in the moonlight." So as a fellow child of the 1980s, I instantly noticed the colorful, nostalgic style of Mandy Marks. And that's just one of her favorite eras!

Today on the podcast Mandy, a high school teacher by day and owner of the Pink Crafty Cottage by night, joins me to chat about exploring your authentic passions and finding like-minded crafty friends. It's a fun conversation that celebrates stickers, junk journals, and all the crafty things.
