Me and my hubby!!! Just the two of us for now.

I can just come into my scrap room and relax after a long day at work or during the weekend...When I go through my scrappy stash, receive a new kit with scrappy goodness, log onto my computer or just read my magazines...

Right now, it's Amy Butler, Heidi Swapp, My Mind's Eye, Hambly and Basic Grey. I also love Technique Tuesday and 7 Gypsies stamps. I love bright, happy colors and a good mix of products!

Green (sage or lime especially)

It is therapeutic for me. It allows me to relax and unwind. It is my creative outlet. Because our lives are filled with so many memories that were meant to be preserved. Because I am the family historian and I want my family and friends to be remembered. I want my future children to know who I am, what their daddy is like, what drives us, what we're passionate about and how much we will love them. It makes me think happy thoughts and takes away any sadness in my life. My scrapbook room is my HAPPY ROOM. I also love just simply looking at my stash of paper and ribbon and stamps and rub-ons and all else and loving what I see. I love the smell of paper as much as I love it when I'm handed a new magazine or book that's just been printed. Vibrant colors and inks make me happy and I'm always thinking of layouts in my mind while looking at cool patterns and details in my everyday life...it's just too bad I don't have time to scrapbook it all, but in my mind, I have probably created thousands of layouts! I think that scrapbooking, in a way, defines who I am simply because I scrapbook about things that I love, care about, wish for and dream about. Because I cherish my surroundings and I embrace the love that I feel everyday. I scrap to create, to celebrate and because it's just plain cool. Oh, and because I love to shop and add to my stash. Simply put, scrapbooking makes me happy.
