Quite early in our friendship, the Good Countess of Yik Yak introduced me to the fine art of scrapbooking.
I must admit, I had previously maintained that this endeavour was only done by rural women and shut-ins. That really - no one would every choose to do this as a creative outlet unless they had run out of DoodleArt posters and macrame string.
I was mistaken.
Sorely mistaken.
On the contrary, this handicraft lays itself open in a boundless arena of potential. And the Baroness is all about potential. Yes she is.
Scrapbooking truly is an amazing art, and those who are passionate about it do it so well; they manage to sift through a wide array of magnificent materials, techniques both ancient and cutting edge and breathtaking layouts to sculpt meaningful tributes to those things they hold the dearest:
