Over the last few years, I have filled boxes with memorabilia such as ticket stubs, photographs, cards, business cards, menus, maps, and brochures that I have collected wherever I visit. I started scrapbooking in 2007 because I didn't want to just put everything in a box but rather I also wanted to document my experiences, emotions, and the food I tasted. For my first scrapbook I used Lisa Bearnson's Creating Keepsakes September kit called Destination Known Travel Journal. Every since then I have been hooked, I created my own Christmas cards in 2007, birthday cards, and scrapbook pages.
Live. Photograph. Scrapbook. is my way of sharing my life through photographs, ideas, scrapbook pages, mini-albums, and highlighting the people that inspire me everyday. Scrapbooking has been a great way for me to unwind and reflect on everyday life.
Happy & Full is where you will see my latest restaurant reviews, recipes, and food suggestions. I take photographs wherever I go especially if I am going to eat something and those turn out to be very appetizing pictures, it might even entice you to try a new cuisine or dish.
I live in New York City. I am a Network Administrator by day, Scrapbooker by night, and Photographer on weekends. I enjoy the simplicity of life, spending time with my boyfriend and family, traveling, reading, creating, and photographing everything.
