Real Women Scrap TV: Episode 30

The Designers of Creativity Inc.

This is an exciting post for me to write because it's the finale of Season Two. Can you believe we have 30 episodes? This final episode also marks the end of all the Memorytrends interviews.

But, what better way to go out than with four of the incredible designers from Creativity Inc.—Kelli Crowe, Leslie Lightfoot, Becky Novacek, and Jen Lessinger.

In this episode, Kelli, Leslie, Becky, and Jen share their strategies for being moms, wives, scrapbookers and designers for one of the hottest companies in the industry. They were so much fun to interview. I have to apologize in advance for all the noise in the background. The booth next door was giving away prizes and everyone was screaming.

SEASON TWO COMING TO DVD
Now that we've wrapped Season 2, it will be coming to DVD soon. And as a bonus, there's an extra episode on it with the Creativity Inc designers. So, that's a total of 18 episodes! All in beautiful, widescreen resolution. The DVD makes a great gift, for a friend or for yourself. More details coming soon.

Real Women Scrap TV: Episode 28

My Sit Down with Lisa Bearnson - Part 1

Well, it's the episode you've all been waiting for. My one-on-one conversation with Creating Keepsakes founding editor Lisa Bearnson. This is the perfect first episode for 2008. We don't talk scrapbooking. We don't talk Memory Trends. We don't talk about any of that industry stuff. This is a real conversation with a real woman talking about the real issues she (and all of us) face. You're sure to be inspired. Part 2 will be next week. This video will also soon be available on YouTube.

Episode 27: The Original Scrap Box

What I Want For Christmas!

Excuse all the noise in the background of this week's episode. We filmed this literally as Memory Trends was being torn down around us. I thought this would be a quick and fun show before the holidays. To find out more about this incredible storage solution, visit ScrapBox USA.

We'll be on holiday break for the next couple of weeks, so look for new episodes after the new year, including a great two-part episode with Lisa Bearnson, and a multi-part episode with four great designers, including Kelli Crowe. You won't want to miss them!

Episode 26: Interview with Rebeca Seitz

Most of you know of my friendship with author Rebeca Seitz. We've had media appearances together, and she helped us out at our Memory Trends booth this past September. While there, I had the opportunity to sit down with her and chat about her new book, Sisters Ink. We also got to talk about where she finds time to read, and the great website resource to help local scrapbookers connect. Enjoy!

Well, we're officially moved and getting settled in our new digs. Of couse we're living among boxes, but we've got a few rooms already unpacked and decorated.

Kathy Hurt, Product Manager for Creative Options spent some time showing me their creative organizing systems. They are unbelievable. I love them because they are functional and practical, but the other great thing they always have is the style factor...gotta love that! Kathy also gave me FIVE CUTE BAGS to give to you, my faithful blog readers! Leave a comment on this post with your favorite Creative Options product and I'll enter your name to win one of the five bags!
