Hi from Northern Virginia
Hi - I'm Sharon. I've wandered around here for some time drooling over all the wonderful LOs in the gallery. I started out as a paper scrapper about a million years ago and then 3-4 years ago discovered the digi world. I within 5 minutes I was addicted (OK - I'm easily influenced!). Over the years I've been on several CTs and have fallen into scrapping to promo kits and have become an extreme "over-embellisher".
After browsing for quite some time I decided this is the best place to retrain myself, break my over-embellishing habit and focus on my real purpose for scrapping - finishing my kids books. I'm very delinquent on that because they are all grown up! Also need to do the grandkids books. I don't have many products from here - so it will be a slow go while I build a supply and shop. Thanks for the great welcome!

Hi Sharon . . . and welcome to Designer Digitals!
I saw your first page in the gallery a few minutes ago and love what you did with it . . . I'll look forward to seeing more pages as you create and post them. You are in good company in that you are trying to finish up book for your grown up kids . . . at least you are finishing them up . . . I have barely made a dent in the delinquent photos of our grown children. So glad that you introduced yourself!

Hi, Sharon, and welcome to DD! I was a paper scrapper, too, before I found the light and converted to digital.

Hi Sharon! It's nice to meet you! I just read a kind comment from you on one of my layouts! Add me to the group trying to catch up on several generations of photos! I'm starting with my grandchildren and my grandparents and working toward the middle!

Welcome Sharon, you will love this place. I have learned so much and really been inspired.
I, too, have a problem with over embellishing. Falls Church is my home...Look forward to your pictures of familiar places.

Hiya, welcome to DD, nothing wrong with over-embellishing, especially with digi where you've not used it up by putting it on a page
