Snippets

Sunday, August 16, 2009

Laurie Martin-Cohn: I have been scrapping since 1995, and my scrapbooking style is like fashion. From go-go boots and mini skirts to power suits and pumps, my fashion and scrapbooking styles change with the times. When I first started this wonderful craft, I was “one” with white pages, stickers and die cuts. In the late 90s, I was all about paper piecing. In early 2000, I used my own handwriting and I became shabby-chic. Now I love layering embellishments, exploring different textures and using Bazzill and Teresa Collins products. The emotional impact of a creating a gift scrapbook for friends or family members makes this craft deeply meaningful for me. And, on the lighter side, I adore shopping for supplies! In the spirit of good fun, my two friends and I travel all over the Northwest to shop at scrapbook stores. We call ourselves The Snippets, and we cheerfully rank all stores with 1-5 snips for curb appeal, inspiration, product, and customer service. I look forward to sharing scrapbooking ideas on this site.
