Wha' go on?

Now you know how to say "Hey, what's up?" like a Grenadian! I am originally from Grenada, a tiny island in the West Indies, but now live in France with my husband Lucas and our two cats Mozaique and Naala. I am very excited to be part of this blog because I love Kellie's idea! I have been scrapping since late 2001, and scrapping obsessively since 2005. I was so happy to finally find a medium to express myself artistically. I love beautiful papers like BasicGrey, and enjoy techniques like inking and stamping. I love getting my fingers (and clothes) messy with paint and other media. I am as yet undecided on my scrapping style since I will try just about anything once! For me versatility is key! I get my inspiration from everyday things, like my favourite summer skirt, or my coffee mug. I enjoy sharing my work online and meeting other scrappers through message boards, and I am an avaricious blog reader. I'm looking forward to meeting many of you through our challenges, and making this a truly global experience!

Let me just say...I love the idea of your blog. I teach African Diaspora history and I try to help students understand history and current events from a global/interconnected perspective. So-- I love the idea of connecting scrapbookers around the world. Those connections help us to share scrapbooking ideas/styles/methods but most importantly it allows us to create relationships far beyond our little corner of the world.

I will be back....
