Generally I feel as if I am 25 years old.
My favorite book is The Help by Kathryn Stockett, favorfite movie is Moonstruck, and favorite song is A New England by Billy Bragg.
During my life I have lived in Ireland (Dingle, Co Kerry and Galway) and in Massachusetts (Medford, West Roxbury, Arlington, Cambridge, Allston, Arlington and Bedford).
One of the most defining moments of my life was when I gave birth to my first child, Molly.
My camera is a Canon DSLR T1i, and my favorite lens is the 50mm f/1.8.
When I scrapbook, I must have time to think.
Though I began scrapbooking in 2002, I don't think I found my groove until 2006 when I started doing a layout a day.
My favorite scrapbooking colors are green, white and kraft (kraft is a color, right?).
You might notice that many of my pages include something green. I have a thing for green.
Paula Gilarde lives in a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts with her husband Matt and their two children. She terrorizes her kids by chasing them around with a camera. Molly and Tommy (7 and 5) respond to bribes such as treats and cash and provide her with endless fodder for her scrapbook pages. She is an equal opportunities scrapbooker, spending most of her free time making paper, digital, or hybrid scrapbook layouts. Her work has been published in Simple Scrapbooks, Scrapbooks Etc., Creaking Keepsakes, and other idea books and magazines. She was named a member of the Creating Keepsakes Hall of Fame in 2007.
