Embrace Change: My Debut at Sweet Shoppe Designs

The big day arrived for my debut at Sweet Shoppe Designs. Reflecting on my unexpected journey to this point in 2024, it’s hard to believe how far I’ve come. Let me share with you why this path seemed unlikely and how I overcame my doubts.

My introduction to digital scrapbooking came when I was young, eagerly scouring the internet for freebies with friends. But as time passed, we each pursued different paths, and I, too, drifted away from scrapbooking, as I’ve previously shared on this blog.

Last year, when I decided to return to scrapbooking, I felt rusty. My skills had evolved in graphic design, specializing in branding and web design. My journey had taken me far from scrapbooking, and I questioned whether I belonged in the SSD community.

However, as I immersed myself in creating once again, I began to blend the lessons I’d learned in design and in life. Despite this, doubts lingered, fueled by my struggles with ADHD and the journey to find a productive rhythm through treatment.

Yet, scrapbooking emerged as a beacon of solace amidst the chaos. Creating allowed me to escape my anxieties, tapping into the therapeutic essence of the craft.

Today, I find myself grateful for embracing change, for not letting fear dictate my path. Encouragement from close friends propelled me to seek new opportunities, leading me here, where boundaries dissolve and memories come to life through scrapbook album creations.

To those who have supported me along the way, reading through my musings and rants, I extend my heartfelt gratitude.

Sweet gift for You

Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for accompanying me on this journey. And to mark this new chapter, I invite you to join me in celebrating my debut at SSD by downloading the special gift awaiting you in my newsletter.

Until next time, as we embark on this new phase of design together, see you soon!

hugs!

Hello dear readers! How are you all?

I hope this finds you well. Despite living in different realities, we are all united by our passion for scrapbooking, which truly adds color to our lives. Although spring hasn’t arrived yet, my kit brings an abundance of flowers to your garden.
