Off to a GREAT start!

Hello everyone!

Well it’s been only 2 short days since we launched our blog, website, and Facebook page, and we couldn’t be happier with the results!  Everyone from friends and family to other scrapbookers online have been amazingly supportive and we are so grateful!

We worked all weekend to create more sample pages, upload more pictures, and get all our online sites up and running smoothly. 

Trish had her hands full this weekend playing around with our new digital scrapbooking software (Craft Artist), which is a great tool that we hope to utilize in the future.  She also created this awesome logo:
 


(See why she does the computer stuff?)


Thanks to everyone who has liked our Facebook page and has offered us advice and opinions.  Keep checking back for more blog entries and updates!

Breaking Into Blogging (and Scrapbooking)!

Hi everyone! We are so excited to be writing our first post on our new scrapbooking blog!!  We are scrapbook/general arts & crafts lovers hoping to break into the world of professional scrapbooking and blogging! 

First a little about who we are…

My name is Jessica, and I live in Staten Island, New York with Trish and our zoo of animals (2 adorable pups & a cat).  I come from a scrapbooking family; my Mom was a huge scrapbooker and at different times in my life had converted the living room, basement, and even her bedroom into her “scrapbook room”.  I learned all the basics from her and she helped me develop my love of the creating!

I love to scrapbook because it appeals to my creative & crafty sides and helps me showcase my fun, bubbly personality.  I love documenting and capturing happy moments in people’s lives and turning them into forever memories.  I have always made scrapbooks for my family and friends, so it seems fitting that I could share my passion with others.

Trish is from New Jersey and is fairly new to the art of scrapbooking.  She’s extremely artistic and crafty, but has always used her skills in cooking and baking.  Trish is amazing at a lot of things, and she is an extreme perfectionist!  I always knew she had the ability to scrapbook and she is very patient (especially patient with me when I turned our apartment upside down with scrapbooking supplies including turning our coat closet into a closet for scrapbook supplies!).  Trish loves finding the newest techniques in the scrapbooking world, and of course perfecting them.  Trish is also amazing with the computer and so I use her as my own personal Geek squad. 

Our hope with this blog is to share ideas, skills, and experiences with you as we attempt to start our scrapbooking business.  We will be posting our newest online finds, mixed in with tips, projects, ideas, and personal stories from our crazy, hectic lives.  So thanks for reading, and we hope you continue coming back to keep up with us!
