Hello! I am following Lynn Grieveson & Rachel Jefferies here, but to be truthful there are so many wonderful designers here! Perhaps my budget is glad I have not looked closely before...

Ah my scrapping journey ... About 23 years ago (can't believe it has been that long), I started paper traditional scrapping. When digital started, I played in that before jumping whole heartedly into digital in 2012. Since then I have gone from full, but simple pages to mixed media messes and art journaling. Then about 2 years ago I went back to physical paper for art journaling - and got slack in the digital area - throw in Covid and the scrapping mojo left me. Now I am hoping having a whole set of designers at a new store who love artsy stuff will inspire me to jump back-in.

I live in NC, where Spring has arrived - it was 83 yesterday but only 54 today - but we have sun, blue skies, and daffodils!!

Current project: finishing 2020 family album (just Christmas photos to do), 2021 family, 2022 family
UFOs: vacation albums from 2018, 2019, and 2020 and a wedding album from 2019
Someday: traditional scrapping of boxes of printed photos from 1979 to 1999 - hey, at least they are sorted by year
 
Hi! Bev!...Welcome To The O...Impressive amount of scrapping & organization!...bravo!... :)...
 
Bev! Welcome to the O! I know what you mean about having been zapped of scrapping mojo! It happens to designers too!! So very happy you've joined us — and super impressed with your scrapping accomplishments!! Welcome to the O!!!
 
HELLO, @BevG ! You must live near me in the great state of NC because I have/am experiencing those same temperatures and weather! I'm in Winston Salem, actually one of the smaller suburbs but with a Winston mailing address!
Anyway, WELCOME to the O! No matter how you got here, we are so glad you are here!
 
Welcome to OScraps, Bev! So glad to have you here. Look forward to seeing some of your LOs and getting to know you.
 
Hi Bev and a big welcome to Oscraps! I have seen your fabulous layouts and looking forward to seeing what you create here. :)
 
Welcome to the O @BevG! So glad to have you here with us. I am in NE Florida so we are in springtime here as well. They are predicting 89* on Wednesday so I'm hoping that we don't go straight to summer. We do have the most splendid designers and just a bunch of really good people here.

Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions at all!

Well not so much on the traditional. But I did make an Art room for daughter and I about 3 years ago. We don't really use it. I am now considering more storage & furniture for it - hoping that will inspire me to go up there and work. You know, so I can have all the stuffs handy and something pretty to look at.
 
hey Bev, sooo nice to meet you! I bet that being here at the O will get the mojo back going again. And if you do find it, can you send a bit along to me? I go through so many scrap-droughts and am getting a bit stuck in one now.

Don;t hesitate to ask if you need help with anything

I have an art room and me and my daughter love it. I did do some re-organizing to make things more accesssible. I'll be moving in a few months and already thinking about what I want to do in that space as well. Can't wait to see what you do!

Hi, Bev and Welcome! My father lives in Sanford and, providing the Lord leaves him with us - he's 87 but in pretty good health - We will be moving that way. I know NC is big but maybe those of us there can get to gether IRL. That would be cool!
