Bio: I started scrapbooking with my grandmother when I was a little girl. It was true scrapbooking then. We glued little bits and scraps of our lives onto pages that felt like construction paper that were bound into a leatherbound book. I loved those memories with my grandmother. When she became to ill to visit us every winter, I took a break from scrapping but I kept on snapping pics and collecting bits of life. I've loved taking photos of everything since I was little. I still have the first camera I got - a pink little thing with Minnie Mouse on it! It's proudly displayed in my scrap area to remind me to have fun with scrapping and not take it too seriously. I guess you can say I finally got back to scrapping in 2003/2004. And in the last year have been back in love with glue and paper. I have a long list of important family and personal milestones to scrap...unfortunately I work best with deadlines and have been more inclined to tackle the projects that are gifts for others before my own personal creations. Thankfully there is a lot of creativity and inspiration on sb.com to get me going!
