I was just flipping through one of my oldest baby scrapbooks, which I remember modeling after the pages someone who was a regular Creating Keepsakes contributor posted, and now I am trying to remember who she was. The pages I am thinking about were from 2001-02 or so; at the time, she had three or four little blonde girls, and I want to say that she and they all had straight hair and some or all of them had bobs. I tossed all of my old magazine. I feel like her name was Rebecca or something like that, and the pages I remember were color-blocked pastels with green, lavender, and pink. Does this ring any bells? I was realizing all of those little girls must be in their 20s by now!

I swear I can picture that layout, but since I am terrible with names I am no help. Was it a cover of a specialty issue?

There was a Rebecca Sower I believe with three kids - two girls (one Madeline) and a boy (luke). Why do I know this?? Haha. I remember liking her handwriting.

I'm probably remembering and correctly, but I thought her layouts were pretty fancy and kind of shabby chic? And then she have some line of die cuts or something that were very much in her style? For some reason I thought they were flat because they were like photographs of her actual titles. |

Yeah, I’d say shabby chic except I’m remembering not fancy- like more simple and white space but also shabby chic? Lol who knows? I’m probably combining different people in my mind. I agree about the embellishments - I think I bought them and never used them because they were just pictures and I hated them in person. 😂 |

I think you are referring to Rebecca Cooper. I liked her too!

I wonder if I'm thinking of the same person. She would use a certain shade of green. Kind of an olive or chartreuse cardstock on her layouts a lot.

I think you are referring to Rebecca Cooper. I liked her too! That is the one I was thinking of. Her book has her holding the layout that immediately jumped in my head reading the OP. May not be the one the OP was looking for, but absolutely the one I was thinking of. Thank you! |

It definitely wasn't Rebecca Sower; I don't think it was Rebecca Cooper, because I am pretty sure she just had girls (although it's always possible she later had a boy, right?). I think her work was on the cover of an issue, but I don't think she ever had a special issue (and it's definitely possible her name was something other than Rebecca).

Also the book I am remembering came out in 2007, 6 years later then you mentioned. |

I have that book! Wow, you've just triggered such memories. Did she move to the Caribbean so her husband could go to medical school? I kind of remember reading her blog. I think she was Canadian. Edited to add: The first comment on the Amazon page is a review by Mercy Tiara. 3/5 stars lol. |

If she just had girls I think it might have been Elizabeth Dillow?

I believe they live in Colorado now, but it could be Utah. It’s in the middle of the US.  |
