    My name is Janice (aka Peaceful Angel in the digi scrap world). I'm a newcomer here looking for a new home. My current digi home is ready to close-Gotta Pixel. My scrapbooking style is traditional, but I want to try some art journaling. I see lots of familiar faces :) .

    Welcome to TLP Janice! This is the same time of year I became active here last year, just a couple weeks before the annual MOC, an awesome month of daily challenges. One of the challenges last January was art journaling. It's really big here, with an entire forum and subscription program. Enjoy!

    oh big hugs to you..I so know the angst of losing your digi home. It is pure sadness, and more so for GP. Such a shame. I so hope you find this is more than a scrapping store, but a home to laugh and challenge yourself to play and create. We are about to start the most amazing challenge month in January. I hope you play along. If you have any questions or concerns, seriously this is a welcoming place. Ask and enjoy! Again, welcome to the Lily Pad! ♥

    Oh, Janice.... welcome! I'm so sorry that Gotta Pixel closed and so many lost their home. Hugs. It's always hard to jump in and find a new home. I hope you love the warmth, people and the scrappy goodies too!

    Don't get too overwhelmed with everything... there is so much! So, ask lots of questions, jump into the forums but take your time. Though, MOC is a perfect month for challenges, lol! 31 in the whole month, one a day, and if you complete all of them, a $20 GC is yours!

    Welcome to the pad and I hope you really love it here. Last year my "home" at Scrap Orchard closed and I came her and I have found I made a perfect move. It is just a vibrant and friendly place to hang out. I'm a traditional scrapper too just learning to mess around with the fun art journaling layouts. :bk

    Janice welcome to TLP. We're so sorry your digi home is closing. Last year I too lost my digi home, but luckily found TLP. TLP is so amazing! Everyone is friendly and so helpful. The forum and gallery are simply amazing. You're gonna love the like button and all the bells and whistles the TLP site has to offer.

    Like others have said, January is our MOC and it's a great way to jump right in and get to know the TLP community. Check out the December calendar here for speed scraps, chats and sales.

    Welcome Janice to your new home at TLP!! I was also a 'homeless' scrapper last year but I think you will find that TLP will soon become the home you always wanted, just like I did! It's such a fun and happening place! Come and join us in the AJ forum as well and have some fun!!! :)

    Welcome. Happy you found the pad. Hope your search for a new home ends here. Check out the art journaling forum. There are 2 sets of challenges going on just now,and the challenge from Dalis (12 days of scrapping ) is great for trying something new,but still staying a bit traditional if that takes your fancy. Enjoy your new home...
