It's been on sale for a little while now, but I wanted to wait until the new blog was up and running until I shared this with you!
Towards the end of last year I submitted an idea for a book to the lovely people over at Ella Publishing all about being single and scrapbooking about it. If I'm honest, I forgot all about it until one day back in March I got the loveliest email from Angie Lucas, owner of Ella Publishing saying that she loved my idea and that she'd love for me to write an eBook adapted from my original idea.
And there began the most incredible journey of me writing my own scrapbooking eBook...I still have to pinch myself sometimes to check I'm not dreaming!! It was such a fun experience and Angie was just wonderful to work with. I been so so lucky.
So, here it is...'Scrapbooking Your Single Years'...here's what the lovely people at Ella have to say about it...
Scrapbooking Your Single Years
88 spectacular page ideas for current & former singles
by Stephanie Baxter
Alternate title: An eBook about loving your life while looking for love.
I promise you that you won't regret it if you buy it...the list of contributors I got to work with in this book is astounding: Geralyn Sy, Allison Landy, Amy Tan, Sarah Champion, Sara Benzkofer, Megan Powell, Caroline Ikeji, Cheryl Manz-Ametwee and Angie Lucas...there is such serious talent in there! I'm so lucky these girls all agreed to contribute!
The other good news is that I have a copy of the book to give away to one lucky blog reader. Please leave a comment and I'll draw a winner next week.

ReplyDeleteI just wanted to stop by and say thanks for writing this. I used to be an avid scrapbooker, since my teenage years, and kept up with it faithfully all the way through college and grad school. But while I've continued keeping my photos and memorabilia over the last several years, I've been having trouble motivating myself to actually sit down and scrapbook. It seems like so often this hobby is all about scrapbooking about your marriage and kids. And since I'm still very much single and just turned 30 this year, I guess I've been feeling like I've run out of things to say about my life. Reading your book was the first thing in several years that actually got me wanting to scrapbook again--and while I haven't actually had a chance to sit down and make a page yet, I did at least get my piles of half-finished pages sorted in a way that makes more sense for my life. It's a hole in the scrapbook community that definitely needed filling, and I think your book was brilliant.
