I am Sherry. I got an email bout this new site from an EKG Yahoo mail group. I am very excited to be part of your community!

I am 35 and mommy to 2 kiddos....Katie 4 1/2 and Ethan 18mo. I am married to Ron. We have been together 7 1/2yrs. In my spare time (haha) I am an RN in a Neonatal ICU....I have been doing that for 13 yrs.
I started doing Digital Scrapping just after Ethan was born. I started with PS Elements 2 but now am a confirmed PSP 9 user. I have made a few kits on my own but so want to get better at it. I would really like to be able to sale some stuff and make a few extra dollars but don't think I am quite there yet.

I can't wait to get to know everyone!!!

Hi! I'm Kim from Philadelphia, 44, and have been doing all kinds of crafts since I was a child. Have been paper scrapping since high school, but found digiscrapping over a year ago and haven't looked back! Yeah, I'm addicted, lol.

Congrats on your new site and I look forward to participating in the community! :)

Edited to say that I use PSE3 and PSCS primarily, but am familiar with PSP8, PSP9 and quite a few versions of PI. :)

I'm Shari ( 29 - 30 Feb 1st) SAHM to Courtney 8 ( 3rd grade ) and Devin 6 (1st grade).
Married to Tony (33) for 10 yrs he is a computer programmer for UBOC

We live in San Diego moved here from Seattle,WA in Jan.

Tony has 2 kids up in WA still Caly 14 and Justin 12.

I love to craft, cook, cake decorate ect. I've been doing web design and creating siggies and avatars for a number of years so getting into Digiscrapping is only a natural progression for me LOL.

I'm using PSP 9 at the moment but am hoping to get PSP X soon.
I've been using PSP since 97' or so. Its by far my fav still. I did have corel draw for a awhile but I used it more for creating fliers and such. But stuck with PSP for my graphic design.

I haven't gotten to make many pages yet ( just started digi scrapping in July) we had a busy summer with Tony's kids visiting 2 times and then a move into a new place and a visit from my mom. But I do have ideas and a bunch of graphics saved. I just have a losey video card so it bogs my PC down. Hopefully tony can get my my Radeon All-in-One soon I had one on my old PC up in WA and loved it.

looking forward to getting to know you all and learning new things.

BTW Brenda thanks for posting the link on TFP. I'm so excited for you (((HUGS)))

Hello,

My name is Dawn, and I just love the design of this site. The colours are awesome.

I have been paper scrapping since October 2002 and started digi scrapping March 2005. I started playing and making my own elements in August and became a commercial designer at the end of September.

I have been with DH for 10 years, married 7. We have no kids yet. I have a nephew though...and try to scrap him when I get some pictures.

I am going to go check out the rest of the site now.

Talk to you all on the boards.

Hi, I'm Pam, I am 60, married to David who only 6 weeks ago retired from work, I'm still getting used to having him underfoot all day lol.
We have 4 adult offspring and 10 grandchildren.
I no longer work as I had to give up 6 years ago with a few health problems.
I have been digital scrapbooking for almost a year and I totally love it.
I see many names here that I know from other sites and look forward to getting to know many more, but cause I'm on the other side of the world I never get to go to chats, the time is never right.

Thats about all. Pam.

I'm terily. I've been digi for almost a year now, and loving it! I am a wedding and portrait photographer, so I'm at the computer 24/7, except when I'm playing with my two kiddos. Liam just turned 4 and Abby is 20 months. DH is Will, who also works from home, being a realtor as well as running/owning a landscape company. Whew - it's busy around here :-)

I love going to chats, doing digital designing (either my own scrapbook pages, or wedding albums for my clients). I'm a DT for Amy Teets and also for scrappersdailydose dot com

I look forward to seeing the site as it grows! Great so far!!

11-02-2005, 03:46 PM

Hi I'm Debbie from Illinois :) I'm rather new to digi-scrapping, but love to scrap the old way, and boy let me tell you there is no going back LOL! I've been tagging in PSP for several years now and scrapping is a great relaxation after a long day wrangling kids to various outings.

I'm married and we have three children, two boys (17 & 9) and one girl (15), and a great dog, Bosco. (he listens better than the kids!) I'm a SAHM and love my quiet time at the PC. DH does work from home at times, and that sure does cramp my style lol.

I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and watch the great site grow :)

Hugs,
Debbie

Hi hi everyone!! My name is Heather and I'm from Central IL. I'm a SAHM to a toddler and always trying to squeeze in digital scrapping when I can! I've been designing graphics in general for 6 years now and when I stumbled upon digi'scrapping, I got totally hooked!!! Far easier keeping the toddler away from my computer than my paper scraps supplies LOL

Tbog

11-04-2005, 09:15 AM

Welcome Heather--LOL about keeping the toddler away. I think thats half the reason I like digi so much more--no stuff for the little one to get into. Hope you love it here. :D

Scrappy Diva

11-04-2005, 12:55 PM

Hi, My name is Marilynne aka Scrappy Diva. I've lived in Florida, on the Gulf coast, since 1971 but grew up in NJ, by the shore (must live near the ocean!)

I work FT and try to squeeze in digiscrapping every chance I get. I've been paper scrapping several years but the digital scrapping is fairly new. Just now beginning to learn PSE3. I am interested in learning to design, in the future, as I am an artist and former Art teacher. I create most of my LO in a program called (Serif) PagePlus 8.

I am a wife and mother, with a grown son. I've been married 36 years. We have a pet Sun Conure, named Bandit, who thinks she is human and loves to run the show, although she only weighs about 4 oz!

Congrats on the new site. I look forward to visiting often.

Tbog

11-04-2005, 01:08 PM

Marilynne--How cool-We just moved to Florida from Nebraska in January. We lived in the St. Pete area till August, but moved farther south when school started. Great to see someone from my area here !!

11-04-2005, 01:46 PM

My name is Christina (vegaschristina) and I live in...you guessed it...Las Vegas! I've been married for a few years now and we have a 2 year old daughter that we adopted. We've just found out \:D/ that we're going to be (most likely) bringing home her biological brother who is only 2 1/2 months old! We're so excited, and I can't wait to get my hands on him & smother him with love!

I've been scrapbooking for about 2 years, and about 3 months ago, I tried digital just for a change, and I love it! I'm hooked in a big way, and I love that I don't have to worry about Nikaya getting my scissors!

Hi I'm MaryAnne, a sahm of 14, 11 and 2 yo girls and have a great dh for 16 years now.

I've been scrapping for 14 years, and digi scrapping for 2 1/2 years now, because with "surprise baby" I lost all my extra space. (and believe me I was most happy to do so!!!!)

I use psp 9 to mostly do 4x6 "yearbooks" for my girls, but have done a few gift albums and started an 8x8 for myself.

only thing I wish is that i could find 4x6 post bound albums (I've found 6x4, so why can't they make them the other way!!!)! I'm limited to 30 layouts each year and with finding some great inspirations, I fill the books up way to fast!

MaryAnne

Julie

11-05-2005, 12:36 PM

Hi everyone! I'm Julie from Pennsylvania. I just realized I've actually been digi scrapping almost a year now! I use PSP8.

I have three grown "kids", three grandsons, and maybe a 4th grandbaby on the way, we'll know for sure on Tuesday! So I've got lots of scrapping to keep me busy. I work full-time as a medical assistant for a general/vascular surgeon, so I squeeze in scrapping time whenever I can which, unfortunately, isn't as often as I like!

Can't wait to get to know everyone!

Well I met many of you in the chat this morning, but I'll formally introduce myself here.

My name is Michele McGraw. I live in Northern Virginia (outside of Washington DC), but I grew up in Brookfield, WI. I'm a SAHM of 4 kids, 9 yr son, 6 yr old girl, 2 1/2 yr old son & 16 mo girl. They keep me busy. I've been married to Jason for 11 years whom I met on AOL 12 years ago. We also have a Black Lab, Kelsey who is finally calming down (4 1/2 yrs old).

I've been paper scrapping for 9 years (started with my first born) and I discovered digiscrappin while on bed rest about 16 months ago. I've hardly paper scrapped since then. I can't seem to get rid of the paper stuff yet, but maybe someday I will.

I have been designing kits for about 6 months now and working on some other digiscrap projects too.

I love the colors on this site...They inspire me!!!

Hope to see you all at more chats this weekend. I just had surgery this past Thursday so I'm on the couch all weekend (and lovin' it). LOL! But that means I get to scrap & chat all weekend and I CAN'T change diapers and clean.

Hi, I am new to digiscrapping. I have PSE2 and am trying to learn it now. A friend gave it to me as he was upgrading to PS CS2. I hope
to learn as it looks so exciting and I love all the kits I see. I am 55, married 33 years, a sahm and have 3 sons. 28, 24 and 16. I wish I had started scrapping years ago. I want to make a lot with all my years of photos. I have made 4 paper albums in the past year and I only started scrapping paper albums a bit over a year ago.

Hi Everyone!

I am new to Gottapixel.com and I am really enjoying the warm friendly atmosphere here!

Just a little bit about myself. I am a 53 y/o grandma living in Texas with my hubby of 34 years. We moved here 6 yrs ago from FL. Of course I knew absolutely no one here and missed my children greatly. I have 3 wonderful sons and 2beautiful daughter-in-laws whom I love dearly. I am fortunate enough to travel between TX and FL several times a year. I usually stay in FL 2-3 mos and then back to TX for 2-3 mos. Since we moved to TX, 2 of my sons have blessed us with grandchildren. (well, the gals actually did the blessing... lol) I have one grandson, Logan (4yrs old) .. and 2 granddaughter's, Leah (Logan's sister - she's 20 months old) and Jayna (our Valentine baby. she was 9 months old yesterday!)

My hubby travels a good bit so that gives me a lot of free time for my scrapbooking. I do both paper and digital. I use Adobe PSE 3.0 and 4.0. I also enjoy our horses, cats, and dogs ... we love to camp (both with and without our horses) ... I enjoy reading, cooking, and most of all ... spoiling my grandchildren!

And now I can add Gottapixel.com to my list of fun and inspirational things to do!

Oh yeah... and I talk (type) alot too!... lol!

Thank you all for making me feel welcomed!

Happy Thanksgiving all! :)

Hi, just realized I missed this thread....

I'm Tara (34) and I live in SE PA with my DH of 9 years and our DD who will be 3 next month. We have a 6 y.o. Chesapeake Bay Retriever. I work FT outside the home.

I've been scrapping for about 5 years now, mainly paper. About 2-3 mos. ago I "re-entered" the digi-scrap world and I am HOOKED! I LOVE it. I also knit, read and RV with my family.

I love Gotta Pixel...everyone seems so friendly and chatty here and the inspirations are fantastic! I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Hello everybody,

I am Rikki from Germany. I first read about this site in an email to the EKG, but unfortunately due to the time difference I couldn't really make it to the grand opening events.
I have been digi scrapping for about 2 years now. My big plan is to make digi scrapping more popular over here (it is more or less unknown as even paper scrapping is only in it's infancy) and started a website about it some time ago.
I'm married, we have a son who was 2 recently, and a little brother is on the way and due around X-mas.

Looking forward to meeting you all...:).

It's wonderful to know that there's another digital scrapping community that opened and it would be great to meet and see new people around.

I'm Liz Israel from Manila, Philippines. I am a SAHM to my 2-year old son and currently a Creative Team member for 3Scrapateers. My digiscrapping birthday is April 28, 2005 and I have to say that I wouldn't trade this craft for anything else. I have met a lot of very nice and helpful people through digiscrapping and somehow I already feel at home in this vast community of people and culture.

I am not going to make any promises but I will do my best to participate in the challenges and try to help this forum the best way that I can to make it grow. From the rate that I've been browsing this site, I really think this is a very cool place and there are so many friendly and familiar people around. Hopefully, I can gain more new friends through this forum and I can help make this community grow.

Thanks so much for this opportunity you gave me to join you ladies :)

See ya around!

Hi everyone! I'm new here too so thought I would pop in and say hiya!

I have seen quite a few names I recognize from the scrapping community out there and several new names as well. I have been digiscrapping for almost 2 yrs now and LOVE it! Will NEVER go back to paper, which I did for about 5 yrs.
I am 49 married to a wonderful man Jon for almost 13 yrs now. We have 4 children and 4 grands with a new one due mid Jan...we live in Phoenix and love it! I love digi scrapping and digi photography. I currently have a Kodak DX 6490 but have my eye on the Canon 20D or Rebel XT....keeping going back and forth between them...
I am on the creative team at 3Scrapateers since they opened a yr ago and love it. Still get to alot of the other sites and try to participate as I have the time. Looking forward to challenges and crops here as well . The site looks great! LOVE the colors!
Best of luck with your new site here girls!
