Let's Celebrate!

I'm so excited
that after months & months
I finally get to talk about my column for
Creating Keepsakes!!
Dear Lizzy!
You know you have them... questions about scrapbooking that you think are silly but really everyone wants to know. Anything from what the heck are 'stickles,' how to emboss, or what's the best way to scan a layout? Starting in July's issue of CK I will (attempt to:) answer your awesome questions.


It's been so fun hearing from fabulous women from all over the world on all sorts of topics. And now it's even more fun because you finally know who they're directed to. So, I guess if there's anything you are dieing to know all you have to do is ask-scrapbooking related of course:)
(Direct your questions about silencing your neighbor's dog or how to change your oil to Collin.)


To celebrate I am having a giveaway!! First email your question to
letters@creatingkeepsakes.com with "Dear Lizzy" in the subject line.
Then leave a comment below and I will pick a winner in a couple days! I'm going to stuff the box with as much goodies as it will allow! Here's a peek!
Yay! Who doesn't love getting scrapbooking goodies in the mail?!!
**Edited** I may have to pick more than 1 winner!!
Off to watch Idol finale-David vs David!!

DEAR LIZZIE,
I say - I want to hear from older women and moms - what are the top 5 things they wished they had written down when it happened. What do I need to make sure I capture right now, because I have already conceded I can't capture Everything, what would they concentrate on?

Hi Elizabeth/Lizzy
I loved your column about your workspace. It was very inspiring, and I really loved that striped/rainbow rug on the floor by your bookshelf. Do you mind if I ask where you got it?
Also: your sewing machine looks soooo tiny. I would buy one if I could find a small one. Is it like a super tiny one or does it just look small in the picture?
I was inspired to do a "make me happy" page based on the one you had featured in your scrap space. It didn't come out quite like yours, but I love it. Now I just need to find a 12x12 frame to put it in. I have to be careful though or I'll frame all my pages! (I look at my pages over and over.)
I'm a beginning scrapbooker -- I just started last August -- but I am totally hooked.
Anyway, I really wanted to tell you how much I like your scrapbook pages, and just your style in general--very fresh and very inspiring. And congrats on the baby about to be born!
By the way, the other column where you switched with another scrapbooker--your original pages were much nicer (smile).
