I was Googling yesterday and came across this old blog post of a listing of TONS of designers and the stores they are in! It is sad to see how many stores have closed and designers that have stopped designing :( I am listed on there as Jennifer Howland, I was at The Digi Chick at the time, and it says Scrap Quick is my second store...I don't even remember what that store was!!! :floorlaugh: Anyhoodle, I thought some of you guys who have been around since the early 2000's might enjoy looking at the list for the memories... :beatingheart:

A to Z Designer List

Where do I even begin? There are sooooo many fabulous designers out there. And so many wonderful stores! So here is an alphabetical list. It is a bit hard to keep track of them all - many have their own...

Wow that's quite a list!! So many shops I never heard of. I actually created a database of all of my purchased kits. It makes it easy when I do challenges and I need to know what store I purchased what at. So the main spreadsheet has everything on it, but I have pages for each shop. I have the kit name, a preview photo, the category, type, designer, shop and purchase price, lol. I have a second spreadsheet organized by designer so I know that I have from them. I love it!! It took me a long time to create it, but now it's just maintenance.

Good grief, there were so many stores....... but quite a few after this time as well. Mscraps was one and there was a site called Marouuska or something like that and I was on the CT there. And some stores too, just think of them off the top of my head. What a big list designers too! I have not heard from a lot of them but quite a few very familiar!! lol!! What a rabbit hole to disappear down! :giggle4:

What a bittersweet walk down memory lane. I have always been here at the O (@wombat146 says since Moses came down with the tablets :lol23: ) but I spend some time at NDISB, Two Peas in Bucket, Scrap Girls, and then Mscraps.
So sad to see how many are gone.

I recognize so many of them - so many that I was on their CT's and wondered where they had gone to as well. Seems so many just dropped off the face of the earth when certain stores closed. So sad!

I know...I had gotten to know so many of them at the different stores I was in, chatting at DST, actually talking on the phone with several of them! And then also seeing that they quit designing when they were SO GOOD!! Amanda Rockwell and Jen Wilson were two of my favorites...it is sad to not see their beautiful creations anymore :crying1:

Ha ha At the moment I feel like Moses never mind the tablets!
I was at several of the ones on the list as a CT then went to the Digi Chick for many years.It was so sad when Kim passed away. She was so talented and kind. After than I was lucky enough to be asked to come here where I have stuck like glue.
