I'd taken up signature making at ivillage when I was pregnant with Keira and I met a bunch of the girls that hang out here now, Katrina, Jac (Mrs_jb), Karrina, Jamie and I think there are a couple other girls too. Meridith Fenwick, we all use to do signatures together and I'd slowly started stockpiling digital stuff for siggy making for myself. Keira started daycare and they wanted a page for their wall of her family, so I decided I would make a page for that. Just an 8x10 and had it printed at walmart. I totally fell in love with how it looked. So I made the leap. And haven't looked back.

I scrapped 18 months of Keira's life in 6 months, I've learned to journal, which I didn't do much when I started, but I still like to scrap in order, I feel all out of sorts if I don't. I'm completely caught up through Feb. 2008, all my layouts printed, which I'm very happy about. I think I've done 12 shutterfly albums and tons of regular prints before I found shutterfly.

I got more into digi scrap via siggy making too. It definitely gets you addicted to it all and you want to start doing more than just sigs.
