I love how these conversations, with creator after creator, illustrate the breadth of what brings us joy. CJ Flynn is our October 2024 featured artist, inspiring our latest member challenge with her clean and simple scrapbooking style.
You'll find CJ combining minimalist hybrid pages with her favorite products, typically on a smaller scale. Our conversation highlights her journey to clarity about her 'way' of scrapbooking as well as insights into the resources she uses to document with ease.

When I asked Jo Guihot to join me on the podcast, I wanted to highlight her genuine desire to welcome shy newcomers to Simple Scrapper as well as some of the challenges she faces as an Aussie scrapbooker in a very US-centric industry.
What unfolded was a sincere conversation about the snowballing value of actively contributing to the health of a community. Jo shares how she has created more than she ever thought possible, in part due to the accountability members like her continue to foster.
