    Hi Everyone
    So nice to be here, looks like a lovely place to make my scrapping home :-)
    I used to digi scrap years ago but haven't done anything for a long time, I'm now retired and find I have a wee bit more time on my hands and thought I would look at getting back into it, excited to try anyway, but think I've forgotten nearly everything I learnt back then lol
    Off for a look around to see where I can jump in :-)
    Thanks for having me
    Karen

    Hi there, Karen & welcome! I'm across the pond in Australia. There are a few of us Southern Hemisphere people here (and a few Karen's too!) If you need any help getting back into it, feel free to ask! This is a great place to learn (& re-learn!) - the Learning Pad is aptly named and the Blog has great tips and articles too! Today (Wednesdays) is also Something Old Something New day (50% off selected items) in the store too, good for stash building and there's nothing quite like inspiration from new things to play with!

    Welcome to from one Karen to another! :) Congratulations on your retirement! How lovely for you to have more time to scrap (and whatever else you want to do) :) If you have any questions as you're getting back into scrapping feel free to start a new thread in the forum and someone will be along to help you in no time. There is always somebody online here. :)
