BACKUP QUARTERBACK REVEALS TRUE PASSION IS SCRAPBOOKING

October 5, 2015

During the post game interview Sunday evening Patriots backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo revealed his true passion is capturing the team’s best moments into handmade scrapbooks. “I’ve been a paper scrapper since I was 11. I’ve been addicted for more than a decade now,” Garoppolo said. “I tried digital scrapping in 2011 after looking through a Simply Simple Scrapbooks special edition mag about digital techniques, but I’m a paper scrapbooker at heart. Paper is the jet fuel that pumps through my veins.”

When asked about his process for completing a page Garoppolo went on to explain, “Usually I have a few pictures in mind when I start my design process. The page starts to speak to me, and tells me how to best showcase pictures in a visually pleasing way that connects emotionally. My favorite page this year is when Tommy first arrived back a training camp,” Garoppolo said with smile and reminiscent glare in his eyes.

Though Belichick declined to comment on the subject, reports from personnel inside the locker room  indicate the coach sets aside 30 minutes at the end of each practice to just sit back and flip through the pages with the team, reminiscing and laughing about all the fun times they’ve shared.

2016 is going to be one Crafting Year!!!

A Series from the Heart Part II

The Close To My Heart 2015 Convention was truly life changing!!!

 

The best of both worlds!

 

 There is, naturally, the creative side;

 The new catalog preview, 'Hands On' making amazing crafts, Stickyboy,
inspirational seminars and the like. 

 

 Then there was the business side;

 Not sure why, but this year REALLY spoke to me. I had the honor of
attending Leadership Day (well, part anyway, I flew in that morning so
I missed half of it. MY LOSS!!!) and that was AMAZING!!! Actually, all
of the business events were amazing! The company seems to be going
out of its way to help the consultants that want to grow their business
succeed! (Not to say they haven't always done so, it just seems to be
on steriods this year! Lol!)

 

Once I got home I had to step back, unplug (Yes, even went 'dark' on FB!)
and soak it all in and looked deep within myself and had to ask; "Is
this REALLY what you want Jamie?" I had to really think this through.
I had some really incredible conversations with some very important
people at CTMH and I was left inspired, motivated and ready to accept
the challenges placed before me! (This is above and beyond the other
challenges I had already agreed to do...)

Oh, and the answer to question I had asked myself?

"Hell yeah!!!"

You see, I realized that not only do I truly want this, in some aspects I
feel that I need it as well! It is cathartic in ways, enjoyable, fufilling,
challenging, fun, creative, lucrative and rewarding on so many levels.

There we go...a rough mission statement.

(More to come: The challenges...)

 

So true! Real Men DO Scrapbook!

They also make cards!!!

Brian Holman is such a great guy! I love hanging with him at convention!
