Hi There!
I hope every one had a pleasant and Happy Holiday. Now, it is time to think about all those wonderful memories you captured on your cameras. Whether your camera is still using film or you have upgraded
to a digital camera, this is the place that can help you safely preserve those photos for years to come.
Isn't it great to sit around with family and look back on yesteryear? The old photo albums filled with
pictures after pictures. You definitely needed someone there to tell the story behind the photo.
Today, scrapbooking has come a long way. Now we decorate each page with such precise detail
called embellishments. We now journal the story that portrays the pictures. The stories are told in such
a way you feel like you were there. Actually, to journal is the most important part of scrapbooking.
Unfortunately, the day will come when we won't be there to tell how Aunt Mary fell in the snow and
sprained her ankle or why Uncle Fred was wearing the lampshade on his head at his birthday party.
If I have got you thinking about then good, expand your thoughts more in the future. What about your
grand kids or great-grand kids? What if ~ they didn't get to know what a great, fun loving, person you
were? Won't it be great for them to have that experience through your albums?
At Jefferson Scrappers, that is exactly what we do. We meet once a month to safely preserve our
memories of yesteryear for future generations. If you would like to have more information email me at
jscrappers@gmail.com
Now that the introduction is over. This blog will be used to show techniques and workshop projects
we have completed during the month's crop. The group project this year will be to publish a Jefferson Scrappers Cookbook. We have potluck meals for our crops. So, I want to put together a cookbook
of our recipes.
The January Crop will be on the 15th. Let me know if you want to come.
I hope you will join us

The New Year - 2011
Hi Everyone!
The New Year is a approaching fast. What is your New Year's Resolution? Mine is to start and keep up to date on blogging.
The year 2011 is going to be an exciting year for Jefferson Scrappers. We have some new people added to the group. I would like to welcome Crystal Butler, who is new to scrapbooking and Connie McKim, a seasoned scrapper, looking for a group to join.
Although the crop fee has increased, this year's schedule will remain the same. We will meet on the 3rd Saturday of each month for the exception of June. The Town of Bolivar holds a meeting on that Saturday. We will meet the 1st Saturday in June.
This year I am excited to be putting together a Jefferson Scrappers Cookbook of all our great monthly meals. It will be used to help raise money for the group once completed. We had a great Scrap Pink Fundraiser this past year. I am hoping to continue the success.
Starting in January, the group will start having make n takes again. This has always been a plus for the group. It is great to learn new techniques and to see the new products being offered by Close To My Heart Consultant, Tammy Davis and Stampin' Up Consultant, Vicki Mucher.
I hope everyone enjoys their holiday season.
Travel safely wherever you may go!
Toodles for now
