    So, Two Peas announced today they are closing on July 10th. It's so hard to see an industry giant fold. I know many of us with paper scrapping roots got our start there. Kind of a sad day. :no2

    Just got the email, too. Can't believe it! I'm really surprised and sad. I didn't see that coming at all...

    I know...it's so sad. I spent a lot of time there when I first started paper scrapping and then later when I learned how to digi scrap. They were so helpful with their tutorials and friendly members. I was also a member of their photography forum. It's hard to believe they will be gone. TLP better keep going strong for at least the next 10-20 yrs....just saying ;)

    I just saw that! So sad. I enjoy just perusing the gallery and watching the garden girl tutorials.

    Nsbr actually broke off their own forum thing a year or two ago. They were tired of the 'we don't care about you' attitude they felt from the powers that be (real or imagined).

    I loved two peas a long time ago. I'm sad to see it closing. I was really sad when they basically kicked all digital off their site, and didn't frequent it much anymore.

    I'm sad too, feels really like it's the end of an era. I think the way they closed the forums without any warning in advance wasn't fair for those who called it their online home.

    Two Peas was the first scrapping site/message board I joined. So sad to see such a great resource end.

    It really does feel like an end of an era. So sad. I definitely got my start there. I hope all sites don't go this way. I'll be broken-hearted!

    It's creating shockwaves through my photo/scrapping friends. We all met on Two Peas and became friends there. It's the end of an era. It's like losing an old friend.
