Hi, my name is Ann Freude. I live in Michigan with my sweet wonderful husband of twenty years, Scott. We share our home and lives with our four dogs. Molly is our black lab. We also have three shelties named Scamp, Paisley and Magee. Our dogs are the main subjects of my photograpy and scrapbooking. I started scrapbooking over 11 years ago. I love the creative aspect of scrapbooking as well as preserving our families memories. I'm honored to have my layouts on Inspired Blueprints. The two sketches were so much fun to work from while creating my layouts.
