All About the Jilliciousness

Who is Jill, anyway?

Jill is an artist, a forager of forgotten things, and the person most likely to get genuinely excited about a pile of 1970s encyclopedias at an estate sale.

She runs sCrap by Jill out of Florissant, Colorado — a one-person studio where old stuff gets a second life that's honestly better than its first. Newspapers, vintage magazines, dried flowers, found objects, upcycled frames — nothing gets wasted. Everything becomes something.

So what does she actually make?

The work has evolved. What started with snarky cards and bold, funny statements has grown into something a little more layered — 3D mixed media pieces, textured paintings, botanical collages, and drawings with real depth. The kind of art where you keep noticing new things the longer you look.

The vibe? Witchy apothecary meets botanical cottage meets "wait, is that a vintage perfume ad turned into a forest scene?" Yes. Yes it is.

And the funny cards are absolutely still here. Jill will never stop making those. Mail is just better when it's mildly inappropriate.

Why recycled materials?

Because they're better. Seriously — there's more personality in a 1962 Life Magazine than in anything you can buy at a craft store. Jill works almost entirely with materials that already existed in the world: found papers, salvaged frames, dried botanicals, old maps. It's sustainable not as a marketing angle, but because that's just how she works.

Zero AI. Full stop.

Every piece here was imagined, sketched, cut, layered, and built by hand. No filters, no prompts, no generated anything. Jill creates from scratch — the old-fashioned way, with actual materials and actual intention.

Why "sCrap"?

Because one person's recycling bin really is another person's art supply store. The name says it all.

If something here makes you smile, makes you think, or just makes you a little obsessed — that's the point. Jill creates to release. The right piece finds the right person.

Maybe that's you.
