Saturday Ryan & I went to lake Hartwell with Trent & Katie Lewis to Trent's parents lake house. Little did I know that on this weekend get-a-way I would find my match, my I-love-scrapbooking-just-as-much-as-you ( if not more) match! Mrs. Lewis is the ultimate scrapbooker and I instantly was pulled to her ideas! I found out she was a scrapbooker after I flipped through a recipe scrapbook laying on her kitchen counter. After I asked her about it and told her I loved to scrapbook she said " a girl after my own heart" and showed me to her scrapbooking room.
Her scrapbooking room is exactly what I need! It is complete with every color paper you could want, all kinds of glues and embellishments, pretty much anything you need to scrapbook she has it! The best part of her scrapbooking room was she had a Pazzle.
This is a Pazzle. For those of you that don't know, a Pazzle is a professional computerized paper cutting system that uses your home computer. You can cut custom shapes, images, and words out of cardstock, vellum, chipboard, vinyl and more! The first thing you do is pick you word or image from the program, then pick your favorite pen ( Sharpie, ball point pen, paint pen, whatever) and put it in the machine. After you do that the machine then draws your image on whatever size paper ( up to 12X12). After it draws it you take the pen out, put the cutter in, set your cutting diameters and then it cuts your image or word out. IT IS SO COOL AND SUCH A MONEY SAVER! I cant tell you how much money I spend on font and themed stickers! I would go out and buy a Pazzle tomorrow if I could but they are about $500! I will just have to save up for one.
Sunday at the lake Katie, Mrs. Lewis and I spent all day in her scrapbooking room making volleyball good luck signs for Katie's players. I had so much fun learning how to use the Pazzle and looking through all Mrs. Lewis's scrapbooks ( I got some good ideas from them ). Throughout the day Mrs. Lewis told me several times that I must come over and scrapbook with her at her house in Dacula...yes she has 2 scrapbook rooms! I might just take her up on that offer!
I found another scrapbook lover and it makes me so happy!
