I actually just came across this (I had heard about it at the time but didn’t pay much attention.) I am just confused, if I was entering a scrapbook layout contest and the rules said work must be mine, I wouldn’t think about the photo! I scrap photos my family has taken, my son has taken, it’s not important to me and I just wouldn’t have thought that who took the photos was part of the ‘work that must be mine” oh well, I will just go back to scrappin’ and avoid any drama (this is my stress relieving activity after all)

Finally! Someone who agrees with me. Reading that LA Times article (and by the way also the Chicago Tribune same article) made me sick. They’ve portrayed her as this scrapbooker who was setting some sort of cool trendy way to scrapbook that doesn’t involve all hearts and flowers and children, when frankly before all this happened I had never even heard of her. And I’ve been watching Ali Edwards and Donna Downey scrapbook in a cool way without all the hearts/flowers for years before this girl came around.

Even from far away in Singapore where I am, scrappers watched with great interest the unfolding drama. It’s incredible how US celeb scrappers have so much swaym with equal amounts of supportors and those who felt KC and CK were wrong. And I certainly agree with you that whoever is managing their PR is a spin genius.
Enjoyed reading your post !

You are so right!!! I’m so sick of the mainstream media not getting the story straight. There are two sides to everything. Gurr. I’ve had enough of this one.

You know, I didn’t even really care that much until she started taking swipes at the rest of us. Just cause I don’t drink beer and swear constantly doesn’t mean that I’m not a creative genius!!
