HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

Top 12 from 2008

Swiping this awesome idea from Heather...here are, in no particular order, twelve of my favorite layouts from 2008 (excluding those I cannot currently share, lol):

Now. After listing those, I'm realizing that I do more one pagers than I used to. :) I also, though, have a number of two page layouts that I just can't share quite yet...so rest assured that I still do and love two pagers.

Also, see that last layout? The "TraveLog" one? Well, it's officially a sneak peek at CK's new book "Get Creative With Type":

This book is stinkin' awesome! And I don't just say that because I have a number of layouts (including that "TraveLog" one) in there, LOL! Seriously, I've already used at least two of the tips/tricks in this book and know that this one will stay out on my desk for reference. :)

Whew. That's that for now. I have a couple other scrappy thoughts brewing that I'll share later tonight hopefully. Right now, I need to get back to enjoying the last few hours with John & Nancy here before we take them to the airport this afternoon. If you post your top 10 or 12 layouts from 2008, I'd love to see!
