Using Inspiration
Katie’s page “Adventure” was a half-done page sitting in a pile before she turned to Pinterest for a little help. Katie says, “I wasn’t sure what story I wanted to tell on the page so I searched for ‘Travel Quotes’ on Pinterest and found the saying ‘Let’s Go On An Adventure.’ I thought that seemed like a perfect title for ‘our’ adventure or journey through life as a married couple.”
Adventure by Katie Scott | Supplies: Heidi Swapp patterned paper; Bo Bunny polaroid embellishments; Studio Calico patterned paper (banner at top); Heidi Swapp letters. Sharpie for the Heidi Swapp-esque Title which I wrote myself. American Crafts Bakers Twine.
Katie Scott lives in sunny Florida with her husband, two children, and an aging yellow lab. She and her husband are lawyers and together they’ve run a small law office for 15 years. Katie has been creating all sorts of art since she could hold a pair of scissors but started scrapbooking in the modern sense in 2000. She finds she’s happiest when she can fit scrapbooking into her daily routine and is generally more concerned with the process and habit of scrapbooking than the end result. We’re thrilled that Katie is a part of the Get It Scrapped Creative Team and love her website, Kiss and Tell Scrapbooking.
In addition to scrapbooking, Katie enjoys improvisational comedy and Bikram yoga. She’s recently added art journaling to her many creative pursuits and her 8-year-old daughter is joining her on the journey. She loves spending time with her family in their backyard, at theme parks, and when they’re lucky enough, on the ski slopes.
