    Hi I'm Jemma, I live in Calgary and have done for 10 years but I'm originally from Scotland.

    I paper scrapped a LOT from 2004 to 2011 but haven't done much since. I recently got into digital scrapping I have only done a couple of LOs but I'm excited to learn! I'm really excited to meet you all, learn some stuff and get some LOs done!!

    Welcome Jemma! You've come to right place for digi scrappin. Everyone is very friendly and willing to help answer questions, so don't be afraid to ask. The SOSN (something new, something old) 50% off sale is going on right now thru Wednesday. There is also a 50% off retirement sale going on, and 20% off new releases on Friday. So if you need some digi supplies, go check out the sales.

    There's always some inspiration at the pad. We run monthly challenges in the challenge pad, and there's usually a chat, speed scrap or slow scrap too. Holler if you need help with anything. I can't wait to see your creations in the gallery.

    take care and keepscrappin!

    Welcome. I'm from Spokane so I kinda know where Calgary is. This is a great place to learn. We also have challenges every month and you can earn a discount depending on how many you complete. That's been helpful for me to learn new things. Hope to see your layouts soon and don't ever think it's too silly a question. We have all been beginners. In fact I am just learning Photoshop so I will be asking some of those questions.

    You are in a great place! I was a paper scrapper too, before I started digital scrapbooking. Once I started I never stopped...it's been over 10 years.

    Hi and welcome! I was a paper scrapper previously too and once I switched to digi I loved it! You'll find lots of help and inspiration here.
