Exciting. Bold. Colorful. Subtle. Layered. Detailed. Appropriate.
Appropriate? Yes! Welcome to Discovery Drive, you and the lovely, talented Kimberlee Croucher!
Appropriate not only describes Kimberlee’s stay here on Discovery Drive, but it also describes her style and color choice on each and every layout she does. Her subjects are embossed in bright and bold layouts, details both subtle and jumping off the page. Try one of her many techniques – she excels at layering and angles. Take inspiration in her dry embossing on aluminum (!) or detailing from edge to edge.
Congratulations, Kimberlee! Your enthusiasum is as apparent on your pages as it is in working with you. Enjoy your rest on Discovery Drive – you more than earned it in many of your scrapping abilities. Did I mention color?

Editor’s Note:
Try comparing subject to technique. Here the
layout, paper and embellishments hug the
photo as tightly as the subject squeezes
through!
Design notes:
I edged all of the scalloping first with
some white acrylic paint and then with ink
to give it a distressed look to match the
page.

Power of 3
Design note:
I ran 2-inch grosgrain ribbon through my
Xyron and fastened it to a piece of
cardstock, then fed that through my printer
so that my picture was printed on to the
ribbon. My number three was made by printing
off the number and word three in various
fonts on the computer and then cut out the
three with the Cricut.

Design note:
I cut out the heart for the background and
made my own scalloped paper.

About the designer
Hi! My name is Kimberlee Croucher and I am a scrapbook addict! I have been casually scrapping for over ten years, but just started getting seriously hooked on this wonderful obsession over a year ago. I love to have fun with my layouts and try new techniques on my pages. I keep myself busy with my two kiddos, my wonderful husband for 10+ years and also with my DT position at Scrap 'N Art. I am so honored to be featured here in ScrapStreet magazine! |
