Get a Shovel...


It's getting pretty deep in here. I need to move some manure!

Angie Pedersen says that I'm a "calls-em-like-I-sees-em" gal. That's flattering! Somebody needs to point out when a shovel is called for and I need a big one!

Click on this link and then click on the patterned paper. Ummm, for a company who will send their lawyers after every poor ex-consultant allegedly violating a contract they signed 10 years ago, that's a mighty big unsubstantiated and unprovable claim.

I was scrapping LOOOONG before they arrived on the scene. And, the owner of Keeping Memories Alive actually started talking about her OWN scrapbooks at the World Conference on Records in 1980!!!! She was selling scrapbook products out of the family store in Utah. Creative Memories was not founded until 1987 under a different name and really didn't start their consultant program until the early 90's. So, I'm blowing the whistle and calling for my shovel... that's pure baloney and they know it. Shame on them for making such a flimsy claim. Next up - the claim that they invented Digital Scrapping...

Scrapbooking is actually a very old activity (my mom was doing it with magazine cut-outs and photos in the 1960's!) and modern day scrapbooking started in the early 1980s - and it wasn't by them.

Hey, if they can get away with it, then maybe I can too. Here's my new tagline: ScrapBiz - we INVENTED home-based scrapbook business". Ummm, nope, I just can't do that with a straight face...

Next they'll say they invented the internet. No, wait ~ that's already been claimed by someone else! HA!
