CropStop is delighted to introduce our March Guest Designer, Liza Nazario-Gregory!
Lisa's creative work is popping up everywhere! We're sure that she will more than inspire you during the month of March.
Hi, My name is Lisa and by profession I am a registered nurse. I am married to my high school sweetheart
and we have 2 children who are now successful young adults. I have
been a crafter my whole life. I sew, embroider, crochet, paint and have
dabbled in many crafty things in my life. Back in 2005, when my son was
doing his senior project with his girlfriend (who is now his wife) They
were creating a scrapbook of their lives. They elicited my help as I was
the crafty one. We took a ride to The Dollar Tree (our local dollar
store) who had a section dedicated to scrap booking Papers, albums, embellishments, flowers, and we grabbed everything we could find. I knew about the new way of scrap booking, but
never gave it any thought until that trip to The Dollar Tree. After
helping the kids create their albums , which by the way turned out
fabulous, I was curious as to where I could get more "scrap booking stuff".
So I drove to our local Michaels and Joanns craft stores. That is when I
became hooked. Then I sought out the local scrapbook stores and found
stuff I didn't even know existed until then. I shopped and shopped and shopped some more. I found Scrapbook.com and saw the kind of scrap booking the
artists did. I was amazed at the styles. It just wasn't cut and paste
and stickers. It was 3 dimensional, it was gorgeous, and oh so
inspiring. So I created a gallery, created my first layout and the rest
is history. My style has changed a bit throughout the years, but playing
with paper and scissors is still so therapeutic for me. Online
scrapbook shopping is my new favorite hobby, and The Cropstop store has
become my favorite store!!
