I'm Paula, an avid scrapbooker with 2 nearly grown sons. I have been scrapping for about 17 years & decided that I would like to share my love & talents for it with others. I created 'Precious Pages by Paula' to do exactly that. There is a line of pre-designed scrapbooks & frames, as well as doing custom one-of-a-kind albums with your photos. Cards are prayerfully made in the hopes of carrying special blessings to their recipients.

I JUST WON AN AWARD!!!
This weekend I participated in my first non-challenge blog hop. Today I found out that I was awarded my very first bloggy award - THE VERSATILE BLOGGER.
Here's how it works...I received a blog post from Judy-Scrappin Nana, saying she had a surprise on her blog for me...I went on over and discovered that she had awarded me (and 6 others) with The Versatile Blogger award.
As a recipient of The Versatile Blogger Award, there are 3 rules to follow…
1. Thank the person who awarded you.
2. Tell 7 things about yourself that your readers may not know.
3. Award 7 other bloggers with this award.
7 things you may not know about me are:
1. I am the Mom of two wonderful boys that are BOTH currently Teenagers! (and I am still alive!) I have discovered that in my opinion 20 toddlers would be easier than 2 teenagers!
2. I was a foster parent in 1991-1992 and have recently found my foster-daughter on Facebook!
3. I have been married twice - once for 66 days and once for 16 years. So I have done the short and long of it...now just to decide about when to have a 3rd go at it.
4. I have been in a long-distance relationship for the last 3 years. It has been hard but oh so worth it.
5. I look forward to having Grandchildren...just not yet.
6. I am planning a big move to Pennsylvania in the new year.
7. I am working hard at getting a new business started.
and now for the really tough part...choosing 7 other blogs to pass the award on to.
and the awards go to:
1. Rhea http://starrgazercreates.blogspot.com/
2. Louise http://louisegale.com/
3. Julie http://balzerdesigns.typepad.com/
