I’m a Product Designer!

Well, sort of. ;)

As some of you may know, I’m a Layout Artist over at Scrap Girls. It’s a digital scrapbooking company that creates and sells digital scrapbooking supplies like collections & kits, 12x12 inch papers, embellishments, Word Art and alphabets. There are a lot more goodies as well, like the Jiffy Easy Page Albums that just debuted a couple of weeks ago! These are the coolest things because they’re layouts that come already made for you. And the best part? Each piece comes on its own separate layer so that you can move them around however you want in Photoshop and Photoshop Elements! All you have to do is open them up and start playing!

Recently I teamed up with Shalae Tippetts (who seriously has some of my favorite designs. She’s got great style!) to create a Jiffy Easy Page Album that is available now! I got to use all of her great products to create a beautiful 5-layout album. Here’s what it looks like:

Aren’t those colors just scrumptious??

Here are the samples close-up:

When you buy this album, you get all five layouts ready-made for you in .psd format as well as .png format for those who don’t use Adobe Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. All you have to do is open the file, insert your own photos into the parts that are black and gray (in the smaller sample above), type out your own journaling into the journaling boxes and you’re done! It’s really just that easy. And that means you can have quality layouts without having to go through the hassle of designing them yourself.

Are you not sure how to add your photos to the templates? Well, then stayed tuned to my blog because I’ll have a little mini-tutorial to share with you doing just that!

In the meantime, make sure you head on over to the Scrap Girls Boutique before midnight, April 12th because we’re having a GREAT BIG SPRING BREAK SALE! That’s right, normally this amazing Jiffy Easy Page Album sells for $9.99, but if you buy it today, you’ll get it for only $8.02! That’s a great deal, especially for such a versatile product that will let you impress your friends with your amazing digital scrapbooking skills! ;)

I know I sound like an infomercial, and for that I’m sorry. But I’m really proud of these albums and I put a lot of work into making them, and I want everyone to be able to have high-quality layouts even if they’re unsure about their skills in Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. It’s definitely a win-win I promise!

Also, if you can think of any other kinds of albums that you’d like to see become available, just let me know! There are going to be more of these in the works and I want to make sure I create themes and albums that people will want.

Thanks! We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming soon. ;)

You totally threw me! LOL. I saw only your title, thought you had applied for the call for designers and had made it! :) Then I kept reading and realized what you meant... like I said earlier they turned out gorgeous!
