Yes...it's that time of year again. When the throng of scrapbookers make their bi-annual migration to Sandy, Utah for the long-awaited USA Scrapbook Expo. I, along with my loyal mother and sister-in-law join the rush of suitcases and totes as they race through the wide, carpeted hallways into the table-filled mecca of scrapbook heaven.
Paper stacked to the ceiling, adhesives, stamps, embellisments of every kind fill the arena. Why do we come? We are women.
It is within us to create. We are intrinsically designed to build upon that which is good, and make it better. We do this in scrapbooking. We take a simple photo, and transfom it into more than just paper and ink. We formulate it into a piece of geneological art.
Scrapbooking is journaling with flair. It is documenting our lives as mother's, daughter's, grandmother's, sister's, and friends in a three-dimensional approach. What could be better?
With that being said, I expect that two days from now, when we hoof it up with the drove of scrapbooker's trampling their way towards the crowded expo, I will happily bellow "Moo-re paper please!" with the rest of the herd.
