Hi! I'm Pauline!
And I am a scrapbooker.

Sound like a confession?

I suppose it is because scrapbooking IS an addiction.
Not a bad one...(I don't think)...but an addiction!

If you want to know the full story of how I got started, keep reading!


I first started scrapbooking in 2001.

 

That was after my sister gifted my two young daughters with some Creative Memories supplies.

 

They began to scrapbook photos of themselves. 

 

Their friends. 

 

Their school lives. 

 

It was fascinating to watch their creativity. 

 

But, alas, I couldn’t keep my mouth shut.

 

“You should do this…you should add that…” I said.

"Mom, get your own!" they answered.

And so I did.


But Creative Memories, though a great product, 

wasn’t enough for me.


I began to see the potential of what I could do.


So I went in search of other supplies. 


Soon I had a small space in my cousin’s hair salon.



And The Scrapbook Room was born.

 

I got a vendor’s permit and started dealing with wholesale suppliers. Soon I was hosting weekly crops and then weekend crops. 

 

And even FOUR DAY crops.

I started blogging. 

And teaching classes. 

And learning new techniques. 

And trying new products.

 

I even started writing about the scrapbook and crafting world.

I'm still here. Almost 20 years later!

 

I no longer have a storefront. But I still sell scrapbook supplies through my mobile store and in my home, by appointment. 

 

 

I still host crop weekends. 

And I teach people like you how to do special scrapbook techniques, make mini albums and even make journals and scrapbooks out of recycled materials.

 

Because I also like to budget. And that’s me. In a nutshell.

I BELIEVE:

  • There’s no right or wrong way to scrapbook.
  • If you can hold scissors and tear tape, you can scrapbook.
  • You can even scrapbook without those things!
  • But YOU NEED to journal.
  • You need to record dates, who’s in photos, where things happened. Someone will want to know. Trust me.

Let me HELP YOU preserve your memories.

No matter where you are, I can help…let’s get those albums done, one memory at a time!
