There is no better feeling than that for this scrapbooker!

ReplyDeleteand as I wrote in your youtube channel. I love my scrapbookig, I love all of it, but my favorite part is the creative process because I clears my mind and allows me to let out my creative side.
DeleteMy favourite thing about scrapbooking is being creative while documenting our everyday lives :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite thing about scrapbooking is getting the stories down with the photos and really chilling out when I am doing it! Could you let me know what you print those word strips onto? I've never printed anything like that out successfully from my computer so would love to know! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteWow, thank you for the freebie and for all of the great links to different challenges. I'm looking forward to watching your video (I'm coming late to the iNSD party because of travel yesterday) and checking out challenges around the web.
ReplyDeleteI love scrapbooking because it combines my love of all things crafty with my compulsion to memory-keep. I have a terrible memory, and I want to remember all the little (and big) details-- and this way they are in a "pretty" form...even if it takes me a while to get them down on/in paper ;-)
