Love Notes

Kind words from wonderful friends

"I read Stacy’s book and took her class and it was life changing! The most powerful lesson I took away was that I no longer had to scrapbook chronologically, nor do I have to scrapbook EVERY SINGLE PHOTO I take! This was so uplifting! I now create layouts that are more meaningful. I also love the photo storage system I learned from Stacy. It all just comes together so nicely and it is FUN! The overwhelming feelings I used to get (which kept me from wanting to scrapbook) went away after learning from Stacy."

"I am a nurse practitioner in the ER and we have hundreds of patients coming in daily and limited staff and rooms. We triage (French word meaning “sort”) so we know which section to put people in and who to see first, second, etc. Library of Memories teaches triaging for photos and memories. This is such a unique, amazing concept."
