This month marks the start of a lot of “firsts” for us. Our first chance to reveal all the goodness that is Ella Publishing Co. Our first sales (thank you!). Our first (and hopefully last!) almost all-nighter as we tried to fix last-minute tech glitches on the site’s backend. And this, our
first issue of Scrapbook Ellaments!
Our goal with this eZine is not to replace your other sources of great scrapbook inspiration such as paper magazines, challenge blogs, websites, and online communities, but to supplement them. We have our own little “Ella spin” on scrapbooking—playful, useful, and possibly a tad dorky—and we hope it’s one you’ll enjoy.
We want to bring to you our favorite products, tips, ideas, and designers in one easy-to-navigate format. And, above all, we want to create a place where you, our readers, have a voice. Look for lots of opportunities to share your article ideas, layouts, projects, and thoughts with us. After all, there’s no “I” in “team” (or in “Ella,” or “elephant,” or in “scrapbook,” but there is one in “scrapbooking,” which isn't really significant in any way, but we thought we'd point it out).
All kidding aside, welcome to Scrapbook Ellaments. Tell us what you want to see more (or less!) of by emailing us here or commenting on our blog. We’re all ears.
