As you can see by the pages I helped others make, I work with strong color themes and keep the pages uncluttered by most of the crap available at the stores. I believe in throwing out all but the best photos and saving non-photo souvenirs and momentos. Postcards are great resources even for good picture takers. Being a writer, I also believe very strongly in scrapbook journaling. Why put so much work in on a page if later no one will know who those people are or what they are doing?
I bought my husband a slip-in frame and he keeps a rotating gallery of grandbaby and wife pages in his office.
BEST TIP: new to scrapbooking and don't know where to start? Start with your most recent trip, recital, sports event and work your way backwards while keeping up with current events!

Hi I just want to say hi. I do scrappbooking and writing also. Nice to know someone who does samething.
Finally! I stumble across a scrapbooker. Hello! I got into scrapbooking through my daughter. Now she is a new Mom so we have a whole new subject. I find it hard to get started on a page, whereas my daughter dives right in and does 3-4 pages to my one. I am too picky, too critical, I think. Maybe you can teach me some ways to overcome my hurdles. Glad to meet ya!
