    Hello! I'm very very new to the forums. I had posted last week about finding my MPM subscription and so appreciate the help in finding my way. I'm working on learning the ropes and will work on my signature eventually.

    I'm Denise, mom to 3 amazing adult boys and an equally amazing teen girl. Mom-in-law to a pretty sweet daughter in law too. I was a paper scrapper for many years and converted to digi about 3 yrs ago after starting to work from home and my office took over my scrapbook room.

    I enjoy pocket scrapbooking but I know that I will NEVER be up to date. EVER. But with every page I do, I know that's more memories that my family and I can enjoy and remember for years to come. Sometimes my weeks seem a bit mundane and those are the toughest to scrap. Its been so long since I've scrapbooked anything but a pocket style page. I'm hoping to maybe jump in on a challenge or two. (and learn how to share them here too)

    I look forward to getting to know folks here. I used to be very active in paper scrapbook forums but it's been a looooong time!

    Hello and welcome from another Florida gal . . . well, from the Panhandle . . . right outside Pensacola.

    You'll love it here! Take your time settling in and don't be afraid to ask questions or seek out help ~ that's how we've all learned to scrap digitally!

    Another Fl girl here, too! I live near Cheryl aka @gonewiththewind just outside of Pensacola.

    Defintely take your time and wander around a bit. I was a paper scrapper turned digi, so I get where you are coming from. Now I do a bit of both, including hybrid in my own albums. I want it all, and these day we can have it all, haha!

    Let us know if we can help!

    Glad to meet you, Denise! I look forward to seeing your pocket pages in the gallery.

    I'm in Orlando, too (west side). Several digi scrappers get together once a month alternating between Orlando and Tampa if you ever want to meet up with some like-minded crafty ladies. Cheryl (of Fiddle-Dee-Dee) is promising to make it to one of our scrap days later this year.

    @staciahall I would LOVE to meet up with others sometime! I used to attend regular scrappy things when I paper scrapped.

    Speaking of the MPM, @lmccandless...is there a specific gallery for the MPM layouts? I have looked a little bit but haven't had time to really explore. Thanks!!

    Hello!!!!!!! welco0me to the Pad!!!!!
    great to have you becoming part of the family...and..gthiose bits I high-lit?
    that is me to the T!!!!!
    I did, once, a looooomg time ago, kept a project 52 weeks adapted with a mixture of 365 (photo a day) I just was scrapping pages and events and meals and whatever it happened that made life scrappable LOL I even printed books of my whole 2011 and some trips we made ... but the chronologically scrapping does not happen these days (I am disabled and 90% of my time bed bound, my daughter is almost 20..... I hardly ever take pictures...)

    If you want to know how to resize/find your way to post & share, though I can imagine you have already been offered help, ask any of us, I will most certainly be delighted to help you!!!!
