Title: Why I love to scrap...
Post Text I've been a newspaper designer, worked on the first Mac computers for graphic design and layout, did layout on the paper on an old linotronic and used a waxer to paste up the galleys. (does that make me sound old? I worked a lot as a young person...LOL)...I've had my own design shop for printing and graphics, I've been an award winning photographer, published author, traveller and gypsy. But now my range is smaller, my life is busier in so many NON-CREATIVE ways so I have HAVE to scrap. My husband and his Mom got me hooked, and I LOVE it! So really the digital, the hybrid and the paper pages, elements, toys and tools are all really their fault. I've scrapped while cooking, while on a conference call for work, while fighting insomnia, to heal wounds, to light fires and preserve moments. I scrapbook for me, for how it makes me feel to take a photo or a story and save the memory that goes with it for the future. When someone looks at a page or an album they are seeing into a part of my life that before would never have been shared. Now this part seems like an SBF promo but it is true: I've found a place where I can create, get feedback and support like never before. I never found that in the paper world, never found that anywhere else. I love it and it keeps me scrapping...and for that I thank you all! Love and bright blessings, Mystic
Just thinking outloud about scrapbooking, the inspiration of life and finding time in a busy busy world!
