    My name is Sonja, a 49 year old SAHM living in Belgium, married to a fantastic but too hard working husband, which gives me a lot of alone time I spend behind my computer.
    My main passion is photography, next to walking, reading and memory keeping.
    I’ve been digiscrapping since 2o10 or so, but took a long break (like several years) because off ….well, busy life with kids growing up, a big move to another country….
    Anyway, I recently restarted scrapping and rejoined the pad here. Still finding my way here in the forum though.

    I mostly do pocket scrapbooking, travelers notebooks (digital) and my newest passion is digital art journaling.i just very recently restarted uploading my creations here in the gallery and on IG.

    So lovely of you to introduce yourself and i think it's wonderful you are able to come back to this hobby after a break and pick up art journalling too - there's a strong AJ community here and always some inspiration and (we hope) fun and like-minded people to share pages and stories with.

    Bart (unofficial mascot of The Pad) says hi & welcome too!

    Hi Sonja! One thing I love about digital scrapbooking is the ability to easily try different styles - I really want to get more into art journaling too. Your pages are gorgeous!
