Weekend Web-Roundup - National Scrapbooking Day!
Tomorrow is National Scrapbooking Day! NSD (as it is commonly known) is typically celebrated on or around May 1st and this year is no exception. It's a great way to celebrate this great hobby whether alone or with a group of other scrappers. You may have events happening in your own area, but I thought I would highlight a few fun things you can see or do online;
And what am I going to do to celebrate NSD? Hole up in my scrap space (with lots of candy and diet coke of course!), clean up a bit first and then work on completing my Week in the Life project. I'll probably finish the last post (only a week late!) here on the blog and then get to work scrapping all the photos I took that week! I can't wait to do some scrapping for myself...I always seem to be working on the next kit or planning for our next event!
Whatever you do...have fun!
Happy NSD!

I spent the better part of Friday and Saturday evening and into the wee hours of Saturday and Sunday morning organizing my scrap space/home office. I've been dieing to do it and didn't care how tired I was, it was well worth it!
