About
I live right near Sandy Hook at the Jersey Shore. I have 2 girls (11 & 15), 2 dogs (Black Labs) and 1 husband. I've been scrapping since 2000. I have a very simple and eclectic scrapbook style.
I do chronological albums for myself. I am currently creating scrapbooks of all of my Mom's old photos, and a book for each of my girls. I also update a Family Reunion scrapbook. Which I can never find enough supplies for! I come from a big family and we lived on a farm, so I need a little of everything!
We just got back from a cruise to Mexico, Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, and I have 400 pictures to scrap!
I've been very inspired by everyone here. Patterned paper and stickers are my weakness. I'd like to do more with stamping and I'm trying to get brave enough to try embossing powder. I don't like lumpy, but I do like things that look lumpy.
