Hello im Helena from Germany and now living on Fuerteventura.
I scrapped 2007 till 2010 more or less and now want to start again.
Yesterday I searched for all my old loved Designers, and actually found some of them.
So i bought some kits, and acidentally found some really old Kits on my Security Disk, i never expected that, its not much, i guess 3/4 of my Kits are lost... but at least i found a bit from Jofia Devoe, MK Design, NDL, SussieM, Natali Design, Kasia and Kitty.
I hope to find some more of the old ones and of course great new one.
So i hope i will start soon. I found some ols Scraps of my son. And there is one thing of embellishment i would really really love to have back...
So i go on sorting my files, i bought like 10 Kits yesterday^^
Happy to found a forum, just because i searched for jofia, i didnt notice when i shopped here yesterday XD

Welcome, Helena! I've never heard of Fuerteventura - perhaps you can make some layouts about it! Your first layout in the gallery is adorable-I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Well, it feels there is more emphasis on mixed media and blending... so photo treatment and filters and blend modes can turn your pages into a work of art....

pocket pages were all the rave at some point but that seems to have passed... nowadays more and more scrappers create art journaling or photoless pages... scrapbooking is not just about documenting events but inner thoughts and feelings.

@Jam-on-toast ah ok... so i guess im very old fashioned at the moment XD indeed its verz strange to see so much without pictures, but its nice, like journaling more creative... i never documented much events, because i dont have so much pictures maybe thats a good chance for me :)
@AZK its on island of the canaries which belongs to spain, but is only 60km from the coast of marocco. so its like on of the most south european parts i would say :) climate is more like warm, but desert but not too hot. and if you watch films which play on the moon, its possible done here ;)
nice idea to maybe scrap about this...for me its meanwhile so normal^^ thanks for the idea :)

Hello Helena! Welcome to Oscraps. I also was away from digital scrapping for a long time but, while it has changed, there is still plenty that is the same. Mainly the very nice people. Can't wait to see your layouts.
