ABOUT ME

Houston, Tx, United States
Hi. Welcome to my site; my name is Karen. I'm an avid scrap-booker, card-maker, and paper-crafter. I have been scrapbooking for about 12 years and I am just as excited now as when I first started. Scrapbooking is the instrument I use to record some of the greatest and most special moments of my family’s life. I love buying patterned paper, ribbon and embellishments, taking pictures of my son, teaching scrapbooking and hosting workshops. This hobby continues to be an obsession for me and it continues to challenge me to be a better scrapper. I love the escape that scrapbooking affords me and the fun it has brought into my world. I have one child, a son; he's 15 years old and he is my favorite scrapbook subject. I hope that you enjoyed my site and will visit again soon.

August Card Class

Here are pictures from the card class I taught this evening. The theme for this class was "some to keep and some to share". I was trying to encourage the ladies to make cards and share them, so we came up with the idea that we would make 2 of the same cards for a couple of the patterns, so that the ladies could keep one of them, while sharing the other with a family member, relative or friend. Well, let me tell you; it didn't quite work that way. Some of the ladies stamped a different sentiment on the other card, so that they wouldn't be identical, thus justifying the reason for keeping them both. One of the ladies, decided she'd give one to her husband and one to her daughter, because they were in the same house and then she'd be able to see the cards all the time. Three of the ladies, that were there together, decided they would share the cards with each other; the end result being they'd still have the same number of cards and the sames pattern; LOL. We'll have to try this sharing thing again. But anyway, we had a wonderfun time and I'm looking forward to the next class. Stay tuned.
