Welcome everyone! Thanks for saying hello!

Hi everyone, my name is Ginny. My husband and I retired to PA a couple years back. We have 6 children and 10 grand children. I love to doodle, paint, garden, and sew a little from time to time etc.

Hi! My name is Erin and I'm from South Florida. I found PixelScrapper through Pinterest and was immediately drawn to the designer side of challenges and want to learn how to my graphic design skills to design all my ideas for scrapbook kits.

I started digital scrapbooking in 2008 but after about a year I had a computer die on my and I lost all of my pages and elements. Having a crazy work life and a 4-yo DD at the time, I lost all my motivation to start over again.

6 years later and I was recently laid off due to re-org and I am trying to start a graphic/web design freelance company, but also trying to explore other options (AKA figure out what I want to be when I grow up).

I'm on my 5th year as a Girl Scout Leader and have TONS of pictures to scrap into photo books just for that.

My other personal hobbies are reading, gaming (tabletop and video), Ren reentactment and theatre.

Hello everyone! My name is Sophia. I live on the gorgeous island of Maui, and I'm a newbie to DigitalScrapbook.com. I came across it as I was scouring the web for digital scrapbook freebies. I'm also very new to digital scrapbooking in general, I've only been doing it now for about a month (paper scrapping since I was about 10), but it's addicting! Especially with a 3 month old who loves to get his picture taken!

A warm welcome to you all! I hope you´re having fun with us!

Hello everybody, my name is May and I live in Massachusetts. I love designing, painting, and photography. I am a preschool teacher, as well as a business owner. I love DigitalScrapbook.com, and found it by accident not too long ago, and I am so thankful for all of the fabulous resources available. Thanks so much!!

Wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I am Cindy mom to 5 kids and I live near Houston Texas. I started scrapbooking a little bit in high school, I put together some books before leaving for college. But I really got started after I got married. My mother in law had-has- a room dedicated to scrapbooking and so I got started and she taught me alot. I have scrapped on and off over the years due to having kids and life. After I had my twins 8 years ago (well 6 years ago because I had no time for the first 2 years of their lives) I switched to digital scrapbooking learned I could scrap a page once and then slightly alter it and print it twice. I never made a big investment in paper scrapping because I could use all my mother in law had to offer. But I have invested in the software and some learning to learn to digital scrapbook. I go thru phases of working and then life getting busy, but right now we are scrapping, so far 20+ 2 page layouts since the start of the year. I am always looking to learn how to do better. I love templates because my time is limited and they help me work faster.

I also love to Cook and try new recipes and to sew and I love to swim!
That is me, we will see how much time I can spend here.

Welcome May and Cindy! Thanks for saying hello!

Hi everyone, my name is Cass. I live in Harare, Zimbabwe - a small country in southern Africa. I am a 40 year old mom to a son of 21, whom is currently away at University. I work restoring old photos, and have put together digital photo books for customers. I am always been interested in scrapbooking, but have found the hands on using actual paper a challenge... so I am really happy to start doing it digitally, totally in my element. I am really enjoying DigitalScrapbook.com, it's so inspiring.

I love photography and being creative and would love to do more with both as I now have a bit more time on my hands.

My name is Marzia (or Mitzina for web friends) and I am from Italy. I'm a scrapbook newbie, but I love anything is creative. I'm a primary school teacher and most of my projects are connected to children and school. I own a Silhouette Cameo cutting machine and I love using it in many ways.
You can see my works in my blog Le Cose di Marzia
Sorry for my bad English...

Welcome everyone! Glad to have you!

Hello, all!

My name is Jannina and although I am not a scrapbooker, I use the designs in projects that I create. All my life I have traveled. Born in Brazil to American diplomats in 1973, I was a nomad until about 4 years ago. My main residence is in Maryland, but I am in Florida for a few months. My formative years were spent in Chile, Guatemala, Portugal, and Virginia. I went on to live in Spain, Venezuela, Iowa, California, Florida, and now Maryland. I love to travel. Every November, like clockwork, I get "itchy feet." I try to go on a vacation around that time. smiley



This is a photograph that I took in Napa Valley, California.

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Design and Technical Theatre, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Digital Entertainment and Game Design. Although I was always type A personality and heading up the ladder, my bout with chronic migraines and Fibromyalgia stopped me in my tracks. I spent 2 years bedridden. However, I am grateful. It taught me to let go of all the superficial "important" stuff and focus on that which fulfills me. I spend most of my free time studying on alternative medicines and health practices, spending time with friends and family, reading, writing, painting, digital design and game design.

I have a greeting card line at MoonDreams Designs on CardGnome. I also have designs that I sell online for prints, canvases and other items (MoonDreams Designs on Zazzle). Another passion that I have is to help students and artists find alternatives to pirating software. Because of this, I began a blog in which I locate free or reasonably priced software and apps. Feel free to visit me at MoonDreams Designs Blog.

Keep Creating!

Hello everyone! I'm May, from Indonesia.
I have been playing around with Photoshop for some time, but only recently I try to create digital scrapbooking with it.
Thankfully I find this website. And I must say, I just LOVE it!
Thank you Marisa Lerin for founding this website.
The monthly blog hop is genius, it's creatively inspiring. smiley smiley smiley

Welcome everyone! Thanks for saying hello!!

Hi! My name is Marti, I am from Kentucky, USA. I am happily married with 5 children and 3 grandchildren. I am also an ICU nurse, so I stay very busy!

I am not new to scrapbooking, in fact I used to manage a scrapbook store. I only got into digital scrapbooking about 6 years ago after we closed the store. I like both forms, but I love the versatility and cost effectiveness of digital. I am an amateur photographer, so I am never without photos to scrap!

Looking forward to hanging out here to get inspiration and motivation! Thanks Marisa!

Welcome Marti! Glad to have you here!

Hi. I just learned about your site from "Mayhemmama." My name is Sharon and I live in Missouri. I have been digital scrapping since 2008 and paper scrapping before that since 1996. I love the creativity of scrapping as well as keeping memories of my family. I usually print my layouts in Shutterfly books. I have also combined digital scrapping with my interest in genealogy and made a couple books about my family history and my husband's family.

Hi, my name is Robin Ackler from Pennsylvania, USA and I just joined this site. From just looking around I see some beautiful designs I can't wait to DL. I love making photobooks for my grandkids from our trips we take each summer and would love to share them once I find my way around this site.

Welcome! Thanks for saying hello!

DigitalScrapbook.com is my new happy place smiley I currently live in Richmond, VA but I previously lived in Florida for over 30 years. I've also lived in Spartanburg SC, St. Louis, MO, and Erie, PA {where I was born}. I'm a young empty nester {I'm 43}. My daughter is attending college in Florida {I miss her like crazy} but I'm enjoying "me" time. I never did paper scrapbooking but blogging led me to digital scrapbooking which I love! I am really into vintage/retro designs and I've found several gorgeous vintage-themed items in here.
I'm also an animal lover---I have 5 cats and 1 dog.

Nice to meet you all,
Kimberly

Good Morning everyone,
My name is Jennifer and I like to call my self a Beginner when it comes to digital scrapbooking. I had started off with paper scrapping about 3 years ago but found it to be extremely messy and very time consuming. I started digital scrapbooking about a year ago and fell in love. I can neatly keep all my files in one place in separate folders instead of clustered all over the place in drawers.
I have looked upon the digitalscrapbook.com site a while back and have had some things in my life that had pulled me away from my passion of scrapbooking. I know feel I have the extra time to get back into it again.
I do love all of the amazing kits made by the designers here and ways for each of us to get to know each other. I find this an amazing site. I have always wanted to make my own kits but do not know quite where to begin. So that is a work in progress. I am a mother of two beautiful preteen boys and have been happily married for the last 4 years. I do thank each of you for welcoming me to your great community and can't wait to get to know each of you.

Hi,
My name is Vicki Andersen and I live in a little town in Utah. I have been digi scrapping for over 10 years. (probably abt 13-14 years) SERIOUSLY I was scrapping digitally when I found a really low end program and I didn't even know how to scan in color or even put in a text box and nobody knew what I was talking about and no one could help me. I was determined to learn how all this worked. Finally one day I discovered that I wasn't the only person on the face of the earth (which I thought at the time) doing this and I nearly fainted I was so thrilled. Since then I have learned everything I could and got a better program (Photo Shop) and I LOVE it. I have talked and talked and now I have several friends who also digi scrap and I love new sites. When I found this one I thought WAHOO because I do at least 150 pages per year and I always need new ideas and new kits. I hope to find new friends here and am excited to be a part of this community.

Greetings!!

I'm Jeannie. I'm from Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

I started out making tags in 2010 or so & eventually got into making tagger kits around mid-2012. A lot of my kits are 'experimental' or inspired by a band I'm very very fond of. LOL BUT! I have fun making them & love seeing what others can do with them. smiley

I have to say I stumbled across this site/ store, etc. recently & I'm in awe at all the fabulous talent here. You all are amazing at what you do & I love seeing the creations you all share. smiley

Thank you for having me here. smiley

*hugz*

Welcome everyone to DigitalScrapbook.com! smiley

After introducing myself I started to wonder when I really did my first digi album so I went back through my books to see if I could find it...and I DID. I couldn't believe it. My first digi album I did in 1977 GACK I didn't know it had been that long. That would be 17 years since I first decided to digi scrap

Oh my goodness Vicki I did not even know digi scrapbooking was around then! I am truly amazed as I am fairly new to it all, just about a year and I know I have to much still to learn. I currently use GIMP and it is a work in progress I tell ya. LOL Nice to know some one here has been doing this for a while. And Nice to meet you

Hi, my name is Judy as you can see and I found this site looking through Youtube videos. I decided this looked like a wonderful place to call my home away from home and I wasn't wrong. This is a great place and Marisa, you have done a wonderful job building this empire.

If you'd like to see why I started scrapbooking, please see my about me. It's kind of a sad but bittersweet story. Hopefully, I can contribute to this community and l'm looking forward to many years here.

Thank you to all designers who give so much of their time.

This is a photo of my boy, who was rescued outside the nursing home back in 2012 and who is my heart. smiley Hopefully my photo works. smiley
