Groups of Women

We all have a story to tell. Some of us are too young to be married, others have not found the right person, some of us have husbands and or children and others have the empty nest.
One way to by which you can choose to leave your legacy is through the hobby of scrapbooking. Some spend hours on one page and other choose not to do any embellishments, preferring to focus on journaling the story behind the pictures. No matter what your approach is we have room for each of you and offer great fellowship.
Whether you call your hobby scrapbooking, faithbooking or just getting your pictures in an album Scrap'n Memories has a place for you.
If you have several women you would like to come scrapbook with you we have the room.
No one has to worry about cleaning house etc...My store is your home away from home.
Set up a time monthly with your girlfriends, spending time laughing and getting to know each other again. What a great way to spend a few hours scrapbooking. Lets put the fun back into it.
Women find themselves giving too much of ourselves to family, church and work. We do not take enough time to focus on us, keeping or making new friends. One thing I have learned this past year is how much friends mean to me. I left a group of wonderful friends at Lifeway that I love dearly. We try to keep in touch by having lunch once a month. I cherish these times. I have also made some wonderful new friends through the store. Going through the tough times you find out how much your friends mean to you. Ladies I can not stress enough how you need to keep your friends and make time for them. Your families will be better when you do as you will feel better about yourself. In our 20's and 30's we are running in so many different directions and friends fall by the wayside. Take time to go to lunch, have dinner, get your nails done and of course do some scrapbooking with friends.

Make it a great day!

Love You! Mini Album Class

Hi all - this is Jessica Turner. I am so excited to share my latest class with you. It is a 4x8 mini album perfect for your sweetheart for Valentines. The class will be held at 1 pm on February 3. The class fee is $20. Below is the class description and the materials you need to bring with you, as well as pictures of the album. I hope to see you there!

Class Description
Your loved one will flip for this adorable 4x8 7 Gypsies mini album. Using the latest Cosmo Cricket Valentines line, thickers and lots of primas, this sweet album is the perfect way to tell your special someone how much they mean to you. It would also work great for pictures of your kids, grandkids, etc. We will do several fun techniques including using mod podge, distressing (ink and sanding) and a little sewing - no experience necessary!! You will leave this class with a finished album - sign up today!

Materials Needed
* Four-six horizontal 4x6 photos (we may crop down to 4x4)
* Several different adhesives (you will need all of these!!) - a wet glue - with a precise tip, a strong glue stick for chipboard (ie: UHU or Pioneer), ribbon adhesive tape, glue dots and pop dots. These will NOT be provided.
* Sandpaper or file (a coarse nail file works great!)
* Scissors (small with a sharp tip)
* Gold, copper, brown, black or red/warm red color box ink for distressing (I used copper on my album)
* Paper trimmer
* Crop-a-dile (a regular hole punch will not work - we will have several on hand if you don't have this tool)
* Corner rounder (optional)

Album Sample - roll your mouse over the image to scroll through the entire album.
