The Daily Digi

I’ve been on the Daily Digi creative team for a few months now and have been able to play with the goodies and promote the site around digi-land, so I thought it was about time I shared my bio from the site here.

MEET MELISSA S.

BIO: I’ve been digiscrapping since October 2007, after discovering IkeaGoddess from reading the journaling on a layout in Scrapbook Memories Australia! My dear husband and little girl who’s just one feature in many layouts, along with recording memories of our homes (2 so far!) and the many renovations my DH did!

I am currently head CT for mgl scraps and love working with a great bunch of girls over on the mgl Creative Team blog. I also CT forSongbird Avenue.

Scrapping gives me a way to record all the little stories in my life and I love the creative side too!

5 PRODUCTS I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT:

1. Actions from Wendyzine -  I love her Scrap It actions, her photobook and single page actions and well everything in her whole store.

2. Frames – I love to use frames for my photos, or at minimum a white border.

3. Solid background papers (love Flergs and mgl Scraps).

4. Fonts! Especially Fontologie and my own handwriting font to give that personal touch to my layouts.

5. My Wacom bamboo pen and touch.

MY STYLE: Slightly shabby, with a bit of clustering thrown in. I tend to change my style to suit the page I’m scrapping, and hope to be learning and growing techniques all the time.

MY SCRAPPING IDOL(S): Bec – her photography, designs and oh her shadows too are amazing! Ali Edwards – is also a big inspiration to my with her philosophy and simple approach.

WHY I AM EXCITED TO BE ON THE TEAM: I love TDD and have read every post since they started. I was so excited when Steph asked me to join the team. I really enjoy promoting TDD around the web, I can share the knowledge we’ve all gained to help other scrappers all over the world. I love discovering fresh new designers through the Digi Files too! This site is second to none and a must read every day!
