That's where I'm limited in selection. Until we got our Hobby Lobby just a few months ago, we had no stores for scrapbook supplies, except the few things Walmart had. MIL and I were just talking today that we will go to Lubbock soon and check out a scrapbook store there that lets you try out there stuff. But, that's an all day, or overnight if we stay with SIL, trip, as Lubbock is 2 hours away. Also have DS18months, I don't want to leave him with DH and miss out on photo ops with his cousin (who is 6 days younger).

MIL and I also, much more as a joke than serious, talk about opening up our own store. That way we can buy all the stuff really cheap and use all we want of it! I've decided I'll just put in my wedding cordinator business in there, as well. LOL! We'd be bankrupt within 6 months here!

I have the same purpose as you, Kitty. Preserve the memories and the pictures. Embellishments are to accent the pictures, not take away from it.
