Xyron Design Team Member for 2012

I feel so amazingly lucky.  I started scrapbooking less than two years ago as a way to chronicle my newborn baby's photos and stories.  It quickly morphed into a refuge from the emotional challenges of being a working mom.  And now, it is a passion and form of creative expression I love and embrace fully into my life.  I am a scrapbooker (and gosh darnit, I'm proud of it).  

A large part of scrapbooking is very personal.  I do it to chronicle my family's stories.  I do it to create memories to share with our future grandchildren.  I do it because I love to play with pretty paper.  But now, I feel so amazingly lucky because I have this new and unique opportunity to share my scrapbooking with so many others.

I am pleased and beyond excited to announce that I am one of the six newest members of the Xyron Design Team!  

Xyron is a developer and manufacturer of amazingly innovative adhesive products and tools that can apply edge to edge adhesive on a variety of materials making all of your crafting projects an ease.  (And oh my goodness, their tools do so much more!!!)

Personally, I always reach for my Xyron tools when adhering ribbon or intricate die cuts.  It is also my go to tool for any project that will be handled a lot - there is nothing worse than spending hours on a project just to have the little embellishments fall off over time because of poor adhesive.  Xyron creates products and tools that I love and would recommend to anyone.  This makes it especially exciting that I get to work with them to make projects to share with all of you.  

Please make sure to check out the Xyron Facebook Page!

I feel so blessed with this new opportunity.  So to Xyron, thank you for taking a chance on me.  And to all of you readers out there, I hope I make you all proud.  

Thank you for the support.  It truly does mean the world to me.
