This month we’re going from the western United
States, where we met Amanda Thorderson, all the
way cross country to western New York, near Lake
Ontario, to meet this month's featured
designer. Dana Frantz began digital scrapping
in April of 2005 as an escape from real life and
to just “let go” and create what she wants. She
says she went “straight digi! Never even
touched paper!” and was “hooked from day one.”
A year later she was designing. She isn’t on
any other creative teams because of a lack of
time, but also because she doesn’t want “to
create something and then always wonder if the
conception came from elsewhere.”
“Everywhere!” was her answer when asked where
she finds her inspiration. “From walking in the
woods to shopping. Colors and shapes are a
great inspiration.” It’s color that inspired
her current favorite kit, Hippie Fizz. In fact,
most of her kits start out with color, usually
green which is her favorite color. Whipperwill,
Dana’s newest kit, is a light breezy kit that
started with a simple circle. You might find it
hard to believe that Dana creates one to two
kits a month using “old dog” Paint Shop Pro 8!

Editor's note:
Bright colors,
combined with a clean and simple design
scheme, make for an engaging page.

Unfortunately, this
happily married, working mother of
four doesn’t find a lot of time to
create layouts of her own. She
typically does one to two layouts
each month. When asked who her
favorite designers are she couldn’t
come up with just one. She says,
“every designer has something that I
really love. I’m always saying…why
didn’t I think of that?”
Dana is married to a
“great man”, Teague. The have four
children ages 7-26, two
grandchildren, two cats and one
dog. The family lives in Western
New York.
