I started scrapbooking more than twenty-five years ago when my doctor told me I needed a creative outlet to help get rid of my migraine headaches. I started doing photography, which I still enjoy, but I soon began to hear about how scrapbooking could help adopted children like our two feel like they have a history. Seven grandchildren and more than fifty scrapbooks later, that history has been preserved. Because I fell in love with the scrapbook design process, I now have a passion to help others design their own memories. Over the time I've been scrapbooking, I've tried many styles and techniques that have come out and have enjoyed the challenges of learning new things. I follow several scrapbook designers and have incorporated what I've learned in my own creations. The scrapbook community is a great place to grow and learn from each other.

I love to watch my kids and grandkids enjoy looking at the memories I've preserved in their albums.
