    Hello! My name is Nicole. I am 26 and married to a wonderful man. We have a beautiful 5 YO daughter who amazes us everyday. I am currently in school for accounting, I will have a certificate by 2017, and then I plan to go back for an associates and then bachelors degree in Business Administration.

    I have done web/graphic design and created web pages since I was very young for personal/fun purposes. Only recently (August 2014) did I start digital scrapbooking, simply because the cost of paper scrapping is enormous! For someone who is on a very tight income, that hobby is one you cannot do much with. However, digital scrapping is something that if you mess up; no money is wasted.

    Welcome!!!!! This is a wonderful place to hang out! I am actually a hybrid scrapper for the pad here, but I throw around a digital page now and then. I agree, paper scrapping is not cheap! LOL And once you cut and use the paper it's gone!

    Cannot wait to see your projects in the gallery!

    Hi Nicole! I know exactly what you mean by "if you mess up, no money is wasted"! I used to be scared to make that first cut into a piece of paper when I paper scrapped! Great to have you here :-)

    Welcome, Nicole. So glad you're here! I'm with you, love digiscrapping because it is cheaper and less messy and what could be better than "undo" at the touch of a button. :)

    Welcome, Nicole!! What a perfect weekend for you to jump in with us with all of the sales and the major party going on around here!!!

    I totally know what you mean about paper scrapping! There's nothing like being able to clip a dozen different papers to the same spot on the template without actually having to cut anything to try them out. Or my personal favorite- digital paint!!

    Welcome! I love digi! I've never tried paper scrapping because I'd be too afraid of messing things up.
