Hello Everyone ~ Have never scrapped the paper or digital so I'm a totaly newbie to any of this. I'm off for the summer so thought I would give digital scrapping a shot.

I'm using PSP9 to do my Layouts.

Welcome Jen! This is definitely a good place to start scrapping. Everyone here is always more then eager to share. I only started digiscrapping just over a year ago and its amazing what you will learn. If you ever have any questions, just let us know. :D Warning though, it is VERY addictive. ;)

Welcome Jen!!!
This is the best place to be especially as you're just starting out, because you won't find a more friendly, helpful, encouraging group of gals anywhere!!!
I predict you're going to have a really fun summer - and a bunch of layouts to show off real soon!
Don't be afraid to ask questions.......any question. We're here to help!!!

Welcome Jen!!! I'm the class clown - but I was told to have fun, so that's what I'm doing.

I also use PSP, although I use PSPX, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem if I remember correctly. So if you have any questions, maybe I can answer them - if not me, a couple of the designers and Debb also use PSP.

Hi Jen...I'm so excited that you found the site!! As you are working through things don't be afraid to give a holler if you need some help....in FACT.....I'm going to start a new forum right now where you and others can go to post questions.

I started in PSP8 and I know that sandersmr and Stacey Jewell Stahl are also very familiar with PSP...so just give a shout out and we will come running!

Welcome, Jen! We're so happy to have you here! The women here are soo wonderful! All of us are here for you if you need anything! I am so anxious to see your first page! :)

A great way to learn is to pick a page in the gallery and copy it (we call it scraplifting) - great way to learn a new technique. Steph has weekly lifting inspirations. Check it out here (http://www.digitalscrapbookartisanguild.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=65).
