Scrapbooking Profile

I am 31 years old and live in NYC with my amazing husband, Adam our dog Mae and my ever expanding collection of scrapping supplies. I have built (um…hoarded) this collection over three years and I am so embarrassed to admit I have never made a layout! In my defense I do make cards but the cards never give me the freedom I dream I will get from scrapping but it always seemed overwhelming. I have been pouring over the artwork on this site, and I am utterly amazed at the quality and imagination of you women…I am so eager to get started I am inspired and no longer overwhelmed. Tx.
I’m sorry this is so long guys- but my life is beyond complicated, please hang in there, you will get it. I have stage 4 metastatic Breast Cancer… and honestly? It sucks! it totally SUCKS! but all things considered I am hanging in there and doing really great.
I have no room to wallow right now because we have finally received some good news, finally some joy! We are going to have a baby- whoo hoo!! our gestational carrier finally got knocked up and our dream is coming true. I can’t imagine any better inspiration than a new baby. Your layouts have been inspiring me for days so please borrow some babyration. Tx.

my family consists of...
my husband, Adam our dog, Mae, and new baby on the way!!
my mom, Carol my Dad, John my best friend- brother, john and brother, Anthony his wife, Keri and my three year old nephew/Godson/love of my life, Konnor

I feel most creative when...
I am up all night... around 4am
my favorite scrapbooking products are...
or card making I like basic grey and Bazzil Basics papers. For embellishments I like maya road for the micro felt and chipboard birds,making memories, Heidi swap, and three years worth of fabulous treasures.
my favorite color is...
Green, but right now I am digging on purple
I scrapbook because...
making cards gives me a way to put the frustration/joy/sadness of my life on paper. it gives me a sense of completion and purpose- to make others happy
the best song in the world is...
Be Mine-REM, Fake Plastic Trees-Radiohead
my favorite movie quote is...
Baxter, You know I don't speak spanish- Anchorman
I almost couldn't live without...
Hostess Cupcake 100 calorie packs
