Hello! Sort of new here....

[Cre8tvlyYrs]

Hi everyone! I have been peeking around here since you opened but was kind of busy at first to say hello before! I am so excited that I found this community as it seems to be full of so much talent and the classes offered are making me so delirious!! I would like to take the classes but at this time not too sure yet since I am on a limited income so I was wondering if I am able to still post or participate somehow here? Sorry to ask a silly question but I have ADD and tend to get overwhelmed when there is too much stimulating information...which anything artsy and digi related is!! lol! Anyways, I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and hopefully create some new friendships!

Welcome, welcome! We're so happy you've found our little family/community!! Feel free to participate in any way you'd like. We have layout challenges (which are WAY fun!) and chats - which require nothing of you financially. And, of course, our friendship - which is also free! And, please, post your layouts! We'd love to see your talents and learn about you as an artist and as a person.

The Guild is all about encouraging growth in digital scrapbooking. Whether you take classes or not, we try to foster an environment of teaching and learning from EACH OTHER. And, we ALL have something to offer. (Not to mention the fact that this form of creative self-expression is a WONDERFUL emotional outlet, as well!)

Can't WAIT to see your LOs in the Gallery!! If you have ANY questions, please feel free to ask. No doubt you'll get LOTS of answers - especially if you post your question in the Forum!

Again, WELCOME!!

Welcome!!!!!! So glad you stopped by to say hello! I understand about having a limited income too! I am a SAHM of 2 teens and a baby. We are trying to scrape up enough money to get my eldest a car- which is cheap compared to the insurance! Anyway- there is so much here to do and it won't cost you a penny! Check out the designer challenges in the forums and there are 10 dollar mini classes if you ever want to take one! They are fabulous and you do them at your own pace. HTH. Hugs~ Lisa:)

Thank you all for your welcoming and encouraging messages! I am so looking forward to getting to know you all more! :)

BTW, my name is Gina and I live in So. California. I am happily married for over 11 years and we haven't been blessed with children yet but we do have one furbaby and over a dozen nephews and nieces so they all keep me very busy too! We are currently working on our plans to adopt a son...God willing before Christmas!! :D

I am definately considering some of the classes here as I've also begun designing and still trying to learn PSPCS2...sooo much to learn there huh? I can't wait to join the challenges here and learn from all of you! :)
