My Blog: http://herebygrace.typepad.com/here_by_grace/
My Objective:
My goal is to secure positions as a creative designer for product manufacturers and/or an online retail store. I'm also interested in working with industry magazines on special projects and layout publications.
My Style & Techniques:
I employ several styles and techniques in my scrapbooking. It really depends on the photos I'm working with and my mood! Some of my favorite techniques are sewing, layering, stamping, tearing, and inking. The best way to describe my creative style would be; colorful, balanced, clean, and linear.
