Guest Designer Spotlight: Emily Pitts


We are thrilled to introduce you to our March Guest Designer, Emily Pitts!



I am a big fan of Emily Pitts!  Her work is bright, wonderfully designed, and her layouts always tell a great story.  In addition, she has such a kind and genuine heart.   Emily currently designs for Cocoa Daisy, Maya Road, Simple Stories, and Jillibean Soup.  You will love what Emily created this month, make sure to stop by to see her full gallery!   Thank you so much for joining us this month Emily.

your favorite Elle's Studio products: 2013 4x3 Vintage Note Calendars, Day to Day Right Here Stamp Set, and You and Me 2x3 Stamp Set


What are the three products you can't live without?
Embossing powder, stamps, and kraft cardstock.


What do you listen to/watch while scrapbooking?
I like to listen to either the blessed silence of my home or Pandora when I scrap.  Favorite channels include Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Whitton, Cold Play, Mumford and Sons, She & Him, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Pink Martini, Train, Sister Hazel, The Weepies, Dave Matthews, and lately, Mamuse has been playing.


What is your favorite color combination?
This changes all the time.  Right now it's teal, and a spinach green with a spot of red.  Or hot pink and sunny hello.  I'm also super happy about metallics, especially in the glitter varieties lately.



What is your favorite thing about scrapbooking?
When I scrap about people I love, spending the 3-5 hours I do on each page allows me to think about them during the whole process.   I think that strengthens my love for them.


Do you have a scrapbooking goal?
I'll never be caught up, I don't even pretend to try, so my goals are more industry based.  I'd love to have a magazine cover in the next three years, then I'll be done :)

Today we are giving away three of Emily's favorite Elle's Studio products!
