BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Scrapbooking Introductions

How 'bout we post a little intro here so we know who is who 'round here! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I am Lawanda Kress, I host the Scrapbooking Site here at Bella. I have been scrapping for about three years now, and I love it, of course!

I am a Leaving Prints Instructor, but not a very active one. I have three kids all girls, Kela, Cassie, and Faithy. They are 8, 6 and 3, and my main subjects of my scrapbooks.

So how about a little bit on yourselves! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm Kathy and I've been scrapping a little over two months.

I am currently trying to scrapbook my college days at Texas A&M. I am single, and have no children. So at the moment, I just scrapbook pictures of my friends, my travels, and important events in my life.

I'm almost two years behind in my pictures and events, but I'm cropping as fast as I can!

Very cool! I would love to see some of your pages on your college days. A friend of mine made a scrapbook of her college days and it turned out really nice <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

My name is Koren I am an at home mom to a 6 year old daughter Kennady and a 21/2 year old son Corben. I have been scrapbooking for 7 years and am a full blown ADDICT!!!!!!!! I have 8 ongoing albums (do not scrapbook in chronological order) and counting!

Hi! I'm a 40+ SAHM of 2 1/2 yr old twnz~John and Grace (yes, I'm a little crazy!) I've only been seriously scrapping for a year but taking photos my entire life, so I'm WAY behind. I'm currently in the middle of 3 albums with a to do list of about 30 more including~some day~an album about me for my children. I love vellum and eyelets and going to week-end long crop retreats. I meet with my fellow church moms 2x~3x a month to crop and we use the Fellowship Hall which has huge tables. In return we will scrap an album for the church every year. I have just became a demonstrator for Close to my Heart stamp company and plan on using whatever little money I make to buy more scrapping supplies.
Sorry for rambling-been with the kidz all day!

Howdy! I'm Molly, a SAHM to a daugther who will be 5 next month. Her name is Bridey and my main subject. Lawanda actaully got me into scrapping a year or so ago, might even be 2 by now, I'm not really sure. I love to scrap justa bout anything but I'm so into heritage right now. I LOVE doing them.

Hi,

I'm Sandi and I have only been doing this for a few months. I had said I wasn't going to start something new so had put it off.

My sil was making a book for her son who was graduating high school and I decided to make one for my son since he was also graduating. We were having an open house party for the two of them and she wanted to have her's finished for it. There was no way I was going to be able to do that since I had less than a month. I did get about 25 pages done and that was only up to the end of preschool. I took several pictures and posted on a science board so there would be pictures throughout his life. I am now almost finished with his book.

I also have two other sons that are 32 and 21 and I want to make books for them. I also found out that my oldest son and his wife are going to have a baby so that will give me lots to scrap.

Sandi :rolling:

Welcome to our new comers: Koren (mommyscrapsalot) and Sandi!

We are so glad you joined us!!

Hi Lawanda,

I am glad I finally was able to look to your forum! What is really scrapbooking about? How long it became so popular? I do not know that much about scrapbooking. Is it something like a photo album with some extra stuff there?

I am sorry, I could not find your message in my forum. Do you remember a thread you post it in?

Hi Lawanda,

here is me again!
