33: Inspiration from People and Places for the Digital Creative with Lynn Grieveson

Where do you get YOUR creative approach? For many, it comes from the people in our lives or the places we travel. My guest today draws from both of those for her inspired digital scrapbooking designs. I'm a big fan of hers and I love using her designs for digital pages. I know you'll enjoy hearing her story and learning about her creative approach. Lynn Grieveson is a scrapbook storyteller, a digital designer, and a memory keeper. She designs digital scrapbooking kits and unique photobooks for documenting and preserving precious memories and stories. Although she has lived in many places around the world, she currently makes her home in New Zealand, one of the most beautiful and inspiring places in the world. Don't miss my conversation with Lynn!
