Treasury of Memories to begin closing sale in Bellingham Bellingham Herald
22.05.83
The 3,600-unstinting-foot store, located near the Meridian Cost Cutter, sells a variety of scrapbooking products, including stamps, stickers and photo décor supplies. The stow away has been open since 1997, with Boyle owning it for the past nine years.
She said it was an emotional decision, but she unmistakable it was more important to focus on raising her two young sons, ages 4 and 6. She and her 14 employees ply the store seven days a week.
"Ever since I became a mom, I've been trying to balance running a retail store and being there for my kids," Boyle said. "With one of them entering first year this year, I've come to realize how fast (raising children) goes. I don't want to miss any more of it."
Boyle said calling has been going well, despite the challenging economy. She decided to close the store rather than sell it, but she's received some interest from others since making the closure communiqu.
"We'll see what happens, but we thought it would be better to just close it," Boyle said.

Scrapbooking?

Can anyone give me some careful tips on scrapbooking? My siblings and I are planning to make a Family Scrapbook for our parents and none of us has ever made one before. We have the ideas, but we haven't done the first aspect because we don't know what to do. Can any experienced scrappers help us? Appreciate the help.
Even tho I mark 12x12 size album is recommended here, I personally prefer letter size, 8.5x11, for many reasons. While it is precise that most scrapbook products you find are for 12x12, they can be resized smaller, whether paper or digital. One reason for my preference is supplies are far less high-priced, far! You can buy a regular 3-ring binder and use it for your scrapping. I put absolutely everything in sheet protectors, and they are less expensive in the smaller value also. This keeps oopsies off of your pages.
Another reason is that you can move your pages in order and even move them from album to album. Since I started scrapping about 10 years ago, I've moved my pages many times, and I've changed my rake over the coals about how I want to organize them. You could do it by year, or by topic, or by family group or or or or - whatever you choose. Sometimes I want to extract a few pages of a definite subject and take them to show, and it is very easy to do in the smaller size. Once you put them in the larger albums, most of the time they are difficult to move, or maybe in some cases not even doable. Top loading - absolutely.
Some scrappers are also crafters. If you are, you have the opportunity of making some cute individualized covers for your three tintinnabulation binders. Since they are inexpensive, you don't mind covering them.
I do think that before you do anything very permanent, you need to determine what size episode you want.
Something I learned to do after I had been scrapping a couple of years was a better way to use sheet protectors. Say I went somewhere and picked up a postcard or other souvenir. Also I have a ticket butt, or maybe an airline boarding pass. I put these and any other memorabilia together in my protector until I'm reading to scrap. If I have to wait to get my pictures developed, this is a arrant way to hold like things together. Maybe I'll even jot down my journaling thoughts while I'm waiting to get the page scrapped. That way I don't taking what I want to say, even if I go back five years later to make the page. If I am using digital pix, I always print out a contact rough sheet of the picture(s) and put it in the protector. Unfortunately, there have been times when I lost the pix on my computer and my little thumbnail is all I had for a picture. As bad as the dignity is and as small as it is, it's still better than total wipeout.
