Featured Scrapper 3/19 – Kellie Fite Turner
I’ve known Kellie (joelsgirl) around the digi world for a long while now and I’m a HUGE fan of hers. She can totally rock patterned papers and if you took a cruise through my favorites folder you’d find a LOT of her layouts hanging out in there. She is totally hilarious, totally sweet and totally fabulous!
Here’s a little more about Kellie:
I made my first album in 8th grade with newspaper clippings and everyday photos. I continued to paper scrap until I discovered digi in 2004. I tried to paper scrap after that, but once I got used to Ctrl+G and Ctrl+Z, I couldn’t go back to cutting that pretty paper. I use PSE 7 and I create for Fee Jardine, Lauren Grier, Zoe Pearn and Dani Mogstad. Oh, and TheDailyDigi. I like being a part of that.
1. What are 2 things you consider yourself to be very good at?
2. What’s one little known fact about you?
Well I’m pretty much an open book, but you might not know that when I was in college my bff said she had to follow me around to tell people I was just joking because I could (and did) pretty much say anything with a totally straight face.
3. Tell us a little about your scrapping “style” if you have one.
4. What’s your favorite element to use on a page?
I also asked Kellie to share 3 of her own favorite layouts and tell us what she loves about them…
Holy cow, I love that bg paper and feel so lucky to have come up with a good excuse to use it. 🙂 Plus the page is splattered with pics of my favorite people in the world.
Jack has the most beautiful eyes, and they sparkle in the sunlight. I feel like I did a really good job of capturing Jack in the photos, and the layout expresses all those things I just love about him.
First, let me say, I know I should have picked a Max page for number 3, but, well, I just really, really like this! I had so much fun layering and title-working, and it just makes me happy.

I just realized that I went to college with Kellie! I just happened over here (I’m fairly new to digi scrapping and to this site) but I recognized her name, and then when I looked at the photo I knew it was her! Funny because I don’t come over here very often. Anyway, good pick, her work is fabulous, and great inspiration!
