The World's Best Online Classes & Products for Digital Crafters

Check out what our creative team has put together this week!

I love this layout by Rachael Sheedy. She used one of Jessica's amazing templates and paired it with papers by Orchard & Broome. Don't you love the sunshiney yellow mixed with the gray? She also added one of Orchard & Broome's photo frames (ahem,from this week's one buck bin) to make her photo pop. Simply gorgeous!

My Story

Let me introduce myself. My name is Jill Sanders and I am married to Russell. We have two boys, Dustin and Darrian, and a dog named Lucy.

I was born as the fourth daughter in Downey, California, right after my family had immigrated from The Netherlands to the US, so you can say I was "Made in Holland" and "Born in the USA". My young life had primarily been ruled by “listen and follow” as soon as I could talk, which surprisingly wasn’t until I was 4, I am told !

Unfortunately, I lost my parents at a very young age and did not get the chance to experience or remember events that happened while they were alive.

How I started Scrapbooking

After having children myself and collecting shoeboxes full of photos, I decided to find a way to preserve the cherished memories and write down my daily stories, so my children would be able to recall my memories when I am no longer around. When I asked my oldest sister for our family albums (of course there is only one copy and she, as the eldest, had them), I found so many photos of my parents but had no clue when or where they were taken. I also found albums full of baby pictures--most of which were of my oldest sister, fewer of the second oldest, even less of the third, and one page worth of mine. (Doesn’t it always go like that?)
