Hello!  My name is Victoria Calvin, owner and creative director at Victoria Marie Designs. I am obsessed, err…crazy…um…I mean…I love scrapbooking and all things paper crafting! And I love sharing the amazing art of scrapbooking and memory keeping through online and in-person paper arts education.

I’ve been scrapbooking for a better part of 18 years (at least seriously, I dabbled a bit prior to getting married and having a child). My style is very eclectic, I like a little bit of everything! I believe in the power of storytelling through pictures and journaling. My passion is to teach others the joy of memory keeping and to encourage robust and transparent storytelling. Scrapbooking is merely a vessel for our stories to live on for generations to come.
