Text Box: Greetings!
             My name is Melissa Reardon.  I am a former Elementary School teacher with a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education.  I have taught first, second, and third grades but currently use my skills with my own children as a stay-at-home mom to Brianna (9), Kyle (7), and Jalynn (4).  I married into the Air Force eleven years ago.  Tom, my high school sweetheart, is a pilot currently working at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois.  The Air Force has taken us from Oklahoma to Georgia to England to Maryland to Alabama and our newest home in O'Fallon, Illinois.  The saying does hold true, “Home is where the Air Force sends you.”
             I began as a self-taught scrapbooker nearly ten years ago.  After attending a beginners’ class hosted by a friend, I was hooked and decided that I wanted to share my love of scrapbooking with others.  I taught classes for four years while living in England.  I have also held themed workshops, group demonstrations, and individual album consultations and layout design.  I have completed over twenty personal albums and numerous gift albums.  I enjoy sharing my artistic gifts, enthusiasm, and unique insights in the art of Memory Album creation.  I work hard to keep up to date with the latest trends and design techniques that are flooding the scrapbooking world.  
             I truly believe that my heart belongs to the creative outlet that I have found in scrapbooking.  I give each album project the same amount of loving care and attention as I do my own personal albums.  My main focus is to create a lasting memory album to be enjoyed for years to come and be passed from generation to generation.  I continue to emphasize the photos and the important stories that they hold.  All page embellishments are chosen to enhance the photos not to detract from them.  
             Remember It Always came about from a personal dream to share my love of scrapbooking in a new and very personal way.  When I give a completed album to a client and see the emotions it brings about I experience a true sense of personal satisfaction.  With the turn of each page the memories come back in a way that cannot be put into words.  As I create personal Memory Albums for others I am able to experience and share joy with my clients while I stretch my creative boundaries.  
I look forward to working with you on your special album project!
