I'm not a scrapbooker. I have tried it, and its just not me.

Yet when I come across scrapbook paper I go weak in the knees. It's always so beautiful, such gorgeous designs and colours. And for someone who happens to love stationery (not to mention having an appreciation for great design), this paper can be my undoing.

Up until now, I've been pretty good - I drool over the gorgeous papers, hoping one day that the pretty designs will come in regular stationery, keeping my pocketbook free of unnecesary spending (I mean, what would I do with scrapbook paper?).

And then my boss brings scrapbooking paper into work to make signage with. Uh oh.

It's all I can do not to drool little puddles onto the floor. So many colours, beautiful textures, stripes, polka dots, patterns.. oh my!

I may not get to take the beautiful papers home, but oooh mans do I love getting to use the paper for something.

Am I crazy?

... nah, I'm just a designer.
