Default Newbie saying HELLO and THANK YOU!

Just wanted to say hello and say how much I am enjoying DD. I've only been in this digi world a few short months and have lurked around here watching and listening and have decided it's time to join in the fun. I am AMAZED by the beautiful kits available and the WONDERFULLY CREATIVE pages uploaded to the gallery. Thanks for all the terrific ideas that are shared! I uploaded my first page over the weekend and was so thrilled that people took the time to look and comment. Half the fun of scrapbooking is sharing what we create...........I'm pretty sure the other half is buying new digi kits!! I have loved scrapbooking for a number of years, but had no idea that digital would take me to a whole nother level of creativity...........and addiction!! Nice to meet you all! Donna

Glad to have you here Donna! And thanks for "joining in the fun!" I love it when new people start posting and sharing in the gallery and forums as it brings that newfound excitement feeling back again... which is where I was not too long ago (not that it has really died off that much for me LOL)! When I could barely wait until 3pm (west coast time) on Saturday when the new products were released, and was chomping-at-the-bit to share my first pages. WELCOME!

Hello and welcome Donna! Good for you jumping in - everyone is very helpful here.
I signed up quite a while ago but only really started to digi scrap and follow the boards more this year - before that I just collected supplies!

I still feel that very same excitement (started digi scrapping and hanging out here in Feb) - the novelty definitely hasn't worn off! Glad you've come out of lurkdom and collecting supplies.

Thank you so much for the warm welcome and looking forward to getting to know all of you as well. Have loved seeing your creativity in the gallery and am learning so much from all of you. Have to love technology (when it works that is!) and the fact we can be located all over the world and still share this hobby and friendship with one another. Thanks everyone!
