I'm Kristin and a I'm a millennial scrapbooker who loves graphic design, social justice, my iPhone, and Jeffrey. I'm 27 years old, living right outside of NYC in Northern NJ. I'm a memory-keeper at heart and I have my own quirky way of going about it. I love Project Life, Journaling, taking photos with my iPhone, and sharing on social media (I love internet friends). I Love telling my story and inspiring others to do the same. Check out this self-interview to learn lots more about who I am and what I love.

I think that really sums up what I'm going for. Not just scrapbooking, or paper-crafting, or another crafty blog -- but me, and the way I do memory-keeping. iPhone pictures, lists, social-media, all the stuff that gets used on a day-to-day basis. Which will hopefully inspire other people to do the same. So going forward, along with the scrapbooking and paper-crafting posts, I'll be talking a lot more about everyday ways to supplement your memory-keeping. Whether it be journaling prompts, social media tips, handwriting techniques, and whatever else comes along.
