I am 28 years old and I call Miami my home away from home. I am a former country girl who has been scrapbooking since a vacation in 2004 when my travel partner and I dared one another to create albums to exchange.

I only began scrapbooking in 2004, but I spent formidable years with various notebooks and journals which I crammed full of photos, drawings and snippets of her life. I was adopted when I was about 5 years old and because of that, I have very little photos from my early childhood available to me. It is believed that I takes scrapbooking so seriously because I want to ensure that no further memories of my life are lost or forgotten.

I make it a point to be creative for at least 20 minutes every day. Creativity is my release of the daily stress I encounter in my job in the criminal justice system. While not scrapbooking, I find enjoyment in spending time with my husband (AKA Scrubby) and our 2 dogs (Muppet and Jenny). I also practice Shito-ryu karate and my training for my black belt in December 09. When asked what my favorite products are, my response would be "the kind for scrapbooking!" I has such a fondness of scrapbooking and papercrafting supplies that in early 2008, www.commit2paper.com was born!

I will give everything a try once, and has a passion for stitching, doodling, incorporating bling and creating popups by cutting the patterns out of paper. I have a hard time categorizing my scrapbook style but if forced to, I would tell you to call my style "simple."
