About Me

I picked up scrapbooking back when I was in college as a way to showcase my meetings with political big wigs during campaign season, then my cousin had the first great grandchild of the family and I made a scrapbook for my grandmother. I was hooked! I spent all my extra money on scrapbook supplies and started scrapping my old pics with a vengeance.
For my wedding I made my own guestbook and scrapped gifts for my bridesmaids. I then scrapped 4 books for my family members of the wedding. It took me over 4 years (until I found out I was pregnant) to finish my wedding album.
After my son was born in 2012, I was determined not to fall behind again in scrapping so I picked up Digital scrapbooking. Now I create most of my LO's for my son's photobooks and a few layouts of my three fur babies or the occasional one starring my husband or me.
When I am not scrapping, I am chasing around my 2 year old, taking tons of pictures of him, and the occasional hike.
I have started an open Gallery over at http://shellbooking.com
