Ode to Scrapbooking Babs

Not really an "ode" since I'm not that talented of a writer, but more like a fabulous list of why scrapbooking is so fab
Scrapbooking, so much more than pictures and paper
Embellishments, stickers, chipboard, paint, transparencies,
and more than what goes on the paper
there is the community
the websites
the celebrities
the friends
the competitions
the stores
the retreats
the lifestyle
Yes, scrapbooking is so much more than people (non-scrappers) realize
It is a way of life, a way to perserve yourself for the future, a way to rewind and relax, a way to be creative and to express yourself
Where would we be with out this wonderful artform?
I for one would not have met as many fabulous women as I have- including the Fabulous BDAY girl Barb!!!! We met through a circle journal group, and have been enjoying each others scrappy styles (though she can bust out the pages much faster than me! check out some of her fab pages here at 2peas, the site that brought us together) and reading each others blogs. For her birthday today, Angie set up a little blog tribute to the things Barb loves. So thank you Angie for including me, and Happy Birthday Barb!!!!
