    Hi
    I'm Marie, a 39 year old wife and mother of 1 girl, from Sweden.
    About 15 years ago I went to my local scrapbook store and took a course. I started on a travel album, but so far the result is 1 finished page that I don't like very much. My perfectionist tendencies are very strong which is why I love digital scrapbooking, it's non destructive (mostly). I found digital scrapbooking last year but here at the Pad I'm beginning to find a style I can work with and like. Looking forward to spending more time with you all in this lovely forum:funfun

    I work with Affinity on my Win10 laptop and iPad.

    Welcome Marie! So glad you stopped in to say hi and introduce yourself! We're happy to have you! I dabble in scrapping on my iPad at times - haven't tried Affinity yet, but have used Procreate. Let us know if we can help with anything as you get more familiar with the site! :)

    I have some of the same perfectionist tendencies myself and I think that's the biggest reason I fell in love with digital scrapping. I NEEDED the undo button! :giggle Welcome to The Lilypad!
