Website & design created by Dolores Proulx for Magical Memories - The Scrapbook Shop ( c) August 2008
plan a trip with my girlfriends and what a lot of fun we have - and of course we take hundreds of photo's. I consider Jan one of my closest friends and we have travelled somewhere together for the past ten years now, whether for plain fun or the scrapbooking events. I would consider it a privilege to work on Jan's Design Team for Magical Memories. My scrapbook style tends to lean towards lots of embellishments and bling, chalking, tearing, and distressing. And I love Disney Stuff.
Not being fortunate enough to as of yet have grandchildren to scrapbook I also tend to use pets as a favorite topic - our Yorkie, Lola, is the apple of our eye. I have gifted a number of friends with special scrapbooks as well, and I can't think of any gift that is more meaningful or appreciated by the recipient. My 35 year old son treasures the albums I have made him and shows them off to everyone.
Scrapbooking has taken the world by storm and the new products that are constantly emerging make it so exciting to see what you can create next. Some of the layouts for wall display and such are absolutely amazing. To receive a new kit from Jan and come up with a design or layout sounds like alot of fun, as well as a challenge for the members of her design team. It would be great to share idea's with the other members of this team and a wonderful way to make new friends while doing it. That's really what scrapbooking is all about as well as preserving memories- making new ones with people with similar passions!

My name is Lillian Bingham and I love to Scrapbook! I attended a Creative Memories presentation along with Jan, back in 1998. We were instantly hooked, both being incurable crafters, whether it be sewing, quilting, painting, knitting, or anything requiring a tactile, hands-on approach. I'd probably consider myself a bit of a compulsive personality, as I always have to approach all these activities working at them for endless hours at a stretch. Scrapbooking certainly heads the list as the most addictive of them all. Last year my daughter got married in the Caribbean and I produced for myself five albums, my daughter, the bride got two, and my other two children each received one as well.
A lot of my scrapbooking inspiration comes from many wonderful trips, both with my family and a group of wonderful girls friends, who mean the world to me. I am married to a work-a-holic so every year I
