Hello all and thank you Claudia for the invite :)
My name is Isabelle and I am the mother of Mélodie who is 3. My mother tongue is french and I lived all my life in Quebec Canada until 2 years ago when I moved to Ontario Canada for love :) I met my boyfriend Bob on the net and on July 2005 we met for the 1st time, after that we were doomed ROFL.. He invited us to move with him on November of the same year and we are very happy since :) He loves my daughter like if she was his.. we were pretty lucky to met him :)
I am currently a stay-at-home mom but I need to go back to work... *cries* EI finish in November and since I don't have help from the father of Mélodie, I have to at least part-time to pay at least for her expenses and my car.. ( I'm already lucky that I don't pay any rent or bills ROFL.. THANK YOU BOB xxx)
Anyway... I am fairly new to Scrabooking and digital imaging.. but I LOVE IT alot :)

Happy to meet you all !!

Hi everyone, my real name is Carol M (I'll use the "M" because of other Carol's on here), I want to thank Claudia for invitiing me to this group, I have been married for 47 yr in Oct. Three children (one which is in heaven right now) lost him to a bacterial infection that took over his body, at the age of 34, 8 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. My husband and I have been together since I was 16, we are really childhood sweethearts, and have been together ever since. Our kids just can't get over it. When I tell them that I was still using the pots and pans we got as a wedding present, they said they were going to go buy us a new set. I told them no I love my pots and pans.
I just thought that was funny that they would of thought of something like that.
Okay, I have rambled on long enough, glad to be hear and looking forward to see everyone's pages.
Hugs to all of you

I apologize for being late on introducing myself here, but I am Maggie and I'm in the Houston area. Married with 4 children, 8 grandchildren, and 2 great grandchildren. Since my husband and I had a very nomadic life (28 years in the U.S.Army, we've lived many places. 19 moves in 28 years, so our children are scattered.
I was and still am, primarily a photographer. Scrapbooking to me is a way to decorate the photos I take. I actually started a little over a year ago, and I started with Scrapbook Flair software.
I love it, and I love the active interchange in here.
Thank you Claudia for being our friend and thank you for inviting me to be a part of this group.
All your pages are super and I've learned just from looking!

Thanks for inviting me to your group! My name is Ineke. I'm from the year 1962, hence the 62 behind my name. I live in Zoetermeer, in the west of the Netherlands. I'm married for 19 years with my husband Jan, and we've got one daughter of almost 17, Mariska. Other hobbies, beside the scrapping ofcourse, are singing in a choir, gardening, reading and making (fake) stained glass windows.

Greetings from Ineke

Hi Everyone! I think my real name is Theresa - it has been Mom and Grandma so long I almost forget. I have designed kits and pages digitally on PS CS2 for several years and still learning things. I used to be a technical writer for Leisure Arts until layed off due to arthritis and fibermyalgia...I used to write the instructions for physical scrapbooking (and other crafts too) that we are playing with digitally - and digitally wins out in my books! This site is the greatest...so much fun and such friendly people. The challenges are fun - win or lose it doesn't matter - the enjoyment is worth everything. OK, enuf about me...quit reading and get back to pumping out those gorgeous pages!

Have a blessed day!

Thanks for the invitation Clauia ~ am happy to be here. My name is Pamela and I've only just begun didi-scrapping and am absolutely loving it. I am from Melbourne in Australia ~ the very beautiful dland down under! I have two grown daughters and three precious grandbabies who are the sunshine of my life. I particularly enjoy scrapping family photos but have just completed the Alphabet Challenge where we had to add a new item to a page for every letter of the alphabet ~ itwas a hoot and really stimulated the brain cells trying to come up with something new all the time lol. I've found entering the challenges really extends my scrapping ability ~ perhaps you should try it too! hugs from Down Under ~ Pamela

Thank you for the invitation, Claudia. My name is Jo and I live in New York City. I have been an illustrator, graphic designer and photographer for a long time. I didn't start Scrapbooking until about a year ago. This has been the only site that has caught my eye for Scrapbooking, and I haven't looked any further. I enjoy looking at the pages here as well as creating pages. This is a great place to practice.

I grew up in Michigan and now live in New York City. My husband and I have 5 Children, 10 Grandchildren, and 1 Great Grandchild. We've been married for 30 years and when I'm not making Scrapbook Pages I'm teaching Graphic Design, I also volunteer as a clown for a children's Hospital. Life is good, life is fun and I have been very blessed!!!
Happy Scrapping to you all

God Bless

Thanks Claudia for inviting me to your "Special Friends" group. I feel very privileged. I must admit it usually takes me a while to open up to people. I am one who has been hurt many times by ones I have considered friends and each time is gets harder and harder to put myself outside my walls and accept friendship shown toward me. I hope as time goes on I will feel safe enough to share some of my life with you and all the other special friends. I am single, 53 years old and live in the wonderful Eastern Townships in Quebec Canada. I have lived in the same area all my life and could never live in a big city. I like my space and privacy.
Hope to get to know some of you better, sure do enjoy seeing all your wonderful pages!!

Thanks again Claudia

Hi, Claudia. I'm back and ready to scrap again. I am the caretaker of the old family photos, dating back to 1880. My goal is to preserve and share. Yesterday I got an message here at SF from the grandson of my grandmother's brother!

Hi all! I'm Betty & I wish I had more time to devote to the site. I raised four kids and two still live at home. My husband is hoping to retire soon. We spoil our two grandsons who live just one town down the road.
I'm quite busy with my sideline "Something Nice Scrapbooking" photographing 300+ pics since late March of the local h.s. track and field team. Hate housework and cooking, baking...just about anything domestic after 37 yr's of marriage. Rather me reading, watching tv, scrapping...or writing a book which is what this comment is turning into! LOL

I'm Judy - AKA Captured Memories Live outside of Atlanta, GA. Married 32 years. One son 31,a stepdaughter 36 with six step-grandchildren - which I can't possibly be old enough to have. HA!
Presently I work for a upscale lingerie boutique www.myintimacy.com very interesting and fulfilling job - it is so much more than selling bras. Prior to Intimacy I worked in two upscale boutiques & one major department store where I was a specialist as well as personal shopper - I called myself a clothing architect: to my husband, I was the fashion police
I also have a photography business: photography is my love and passion. I've loved photography since I could hold a camera and I believe it has helped my sales abilities due to being so visual therefore better coordinating .

Believe it or not, I find scrap-booking challenging, however I am enjoying doing pages with entering challenges from time to time

Thank you so much Claudia for the invitation here. ~ Judy

Hi everyone. I'm Shirls or Tazie or hey you :) I"ll pretty much answer to anything. I'm 41, happily live in sin with my partner Paul and our 3 cats. We have recently moved from Melbourne to country Victoria, a little town called Rutherglen. The wine capital of victoria I have recently discovered :) On the down side, I've discovered I'm not cut out not to work, if it wasn't for scrapbooking I'd be climbing the walls. Hopefully I'll pick up some sort of work soon :)
I've got a quirky sense of humor and outlook on life.
I also like a good natter, so if anyone would like a chat I have yahoo, my id is chocettes2000.

Thank you for inviting me to the group Claudia... it was a delightful surprise to receive.

My name is Cheryl and I'm from a small town in the province of Quebec, Canada. I was (am) a Single Mum, have a 40 year old daughter, Nancy and a 15 year old grandson Mikel.

I just retired from my job as church secretary as rheumatoid arthritis was making it too difficult to climb stairs, etc. So I plan to spend more time scrapping!

I have met lots of new friends on ScrapBook Flair and am having a great time getting to know everyone.

Happy Scrappin',
Cheryl

Hi everyone..... I am delighted to be in this wonderful group of talented scrappers AND friends so I thank you dear Claudia for the invitation!!! My name is Veronika and I am also known to my friends on here and at home as Ronii. I was born in Nurenberg Germany after the 2nd WW ...lived in Belgium for a few years and then immigrated to Canada. I have lived in northern Ontario for most of my life. I have been (am) married FOREVER(actually 38 years) to a wonderful man. I have 2 sons who are married to wonderful girls whom I love as I would my own daughters and of course they gifted me with 3 beautiful grandchildren(girls 1 and 2 and a boy 5). I am retired from teaching; however, we are allowed for a period of time to do occasional(supply) teaching of 95 days per year which I totally enjoy. I love drama and visual arts and in the past did some painting;however, scrapbooking now takes away from that activity. Yes I am an addict!!!!! A computer addict lol!

Jul 25, 2008

Hi Claudia ... I, too, thank you for the invitation to join this group. It's such an honor. My name is Frances. I'm married to Gary and we have one grown son named Mark. No grandchildren. I worked in insurance for many years and then went into part time work at a Christian bookstore. I have always had an interest in art and would dabble in it every now and then. Digital scrapping is helping to fulfil that creative yearning. Most of my pages are filled with pictures of my niece's little girl, Ellie. I feel more like a grandmother to her than a great-aunt. Her real grandmother (my sister Nancy) lives in Vietnam and so I try to fill the shoes that she would be wearing if she was living in the States close to Ellie. It's been fun being a part of SBF, and I look forward to many adventures together. Hugs to everyone ...
Jul 27, 2008

Thank you for joining!!!!! I am very happy!!!!! Hugs..Claudia
Jul 30, 2008

Thank you so much for the invitation Claudia! My name is Gary and I'm 45 years young! The Gerry Wright name was actually a name I used when I worked in radio and Television news many moons ago. Anyway, I'm married to Tina (Momof3girls) and two of my girls are on the site, Rachael (RachieRach) is 11 going on 21 and Emma (ButterflyGirlieGirl) is 7 going on...7 haha. We also have another daughter, Hannah who is 5. She shows up and posts pages on our accounts from time to time.

I really enjoy this community and think that it is so wonderful to be able to make friends with people half way around the world, and talk to them as if they were right here!
Aug 3, 2008

Hi all, thanks Claudia for the invite. I am Sue and I started my scrapping here at Flair went on to other things from here. I love graphic art in fact any art, and love creating pages as well as editing digital photos. After various other sites I always find my way back here because importantly this site is about the Scrapping and not the designing of kits. May that always be so as it seems to me that it is the reason for the sites success. Digital scrapbook pages are a wonderful way of keeping our memories safe and with the embellishments and different backgrounds we can make a real story of the photo we are scrapping. Truly in digital scrapping a picture paints a thousand words.
Aug 9, 2008

Hi, Thank you Claudia for inviting me to join.

I have three children, Clara is 7 years old, Benjamin is 4 years old, and Levi is 8 months old. I have been married since June 26, 1999. I am a stay at home mom. Our son Benjamin has Autism. I live in the NW Suburbs of Chicago, IL.

Hello to all! Thanks for the invite! My name is Nancy, I live in the States. I have one child that was killed in a car accident at the age of 17 yo in 2005. He is the reason I started scrapping for his websites. Now I enjoy it for all the right reasons. I love SCF b/c I am learning new things, using my imagination and having fun! I work full time with vicitims of Domestic Violence, do some public speaking, work in my gardens, spend time with a wonderful man and my dog Molly. I also enjoy spending time with my parents that I am so blessed to still have with me. Next I am going to attend a scrap meet and try to do the real thing. Not sure if I can do it but I am going to try.

Thank you for the invitation to join your group. I live in Washington State, and have lived here all my life. I am 28 years old and raising my niece. I just recently started Digital Scrapping and I have become addicted =) Love the freedom you have of doing and redoing something if it didnt turn out right the first time.
Aug 17, 2008

Hi Claudia and Friends

Thank you so much for inviting me to join this group! My name is Debbie and although I found the SCF website and joined a year ago, have only just become active and been doing digital scrapbooking for about a month now. I have done traditional scrapbooking for several years, but love the ease of clean-up and the fact that there are no limitations on your creativity when creating digital pages. I grew up on a farm in South Africa and moved to Atlanta with my husband in 2000. My husband and I are involved in full-time mission work, and have 2 beautiful children, both adopted and brought into our home within 24 hours of their births.

Hi! I've actually been in this group for a while now but never got to introduce myself proberly - maybe it's about time: My name is Anita and I'm 38 years old. I live in Norway with my son Stian Sebastian soon to be 12 years old. I work full time as an contract coordinator and my son is in grade 7. I'm hooked on digital scrapping but doesn't have much time for it. We live a very hectic life (like everone else I suppose) - three times a week I have to drive my son to swim practice in the afternoon/evening, I'm in a charity group that raises money for our townhall, I'm a parents representative at school and I'm also in a group who's working on the "development" of our town. In between I also try to get some excersise trying to make up for all the hours at work where I sit infront of the PC all day :-) Thank you Claudia for having me in your group - I will hopefully have more time to scrap now when the days are getting colder and the nights darker...

Hi, my name is Regan. I grew up in small town Idaho and now live in small town Colorado. I'm relatively new to digital scrapbooking. Just like digital photography I was reluctant to get into it because I love the hands on work of the old school photography and scrapbooking. I finally tried it and am now a total addict to both. My main subjects are, of course my two beautiful little girls ages 2 and 4.

Hello all!

I am new to SBF, and am looking to make friends with similar interests. I love digital scrapbooking, though until recent, I just considered my work to be graphic design. Turning to digital scrapbooking, and having friends to share my work with is exciting! I am anxious to learn about scrapbooking while making new friends. I live in an area far from family, with my husband and son. In my job, I can't socialize with employees, so it gets to be quite lonely. Here's to new friendships!

Hello Everyone,
My name is Traci I have been scrapbooking for over 20 years. My mom was a Creative Memories consultant and then I became a consultant. I moved past that. I love it but it was to steiffeling for me. I like to use a lot of different things and they didnt allow me to do that. So I moved on to bigger better things. I stumbled on to Scrapbook Flair while I was googling for scrapbook supplies. I am so glad I did. I love it. I am a mother of 4. 2 girls and 2 boys the oldest is 26 and the youngest is 7....The seven year old is usually my subject. I am learning photography and she is usually the only one home with me so she is most times my subject. I am happy to be here with all of you and hope to make a lot of new scrapbooking friends.

Hi everyone,
I'm Fran and I'm so thrilled to have found this wonderful site...it has become a great part of my life (an obsession as my family says...and I guess they are right) - I live in Ponoka Alberta, Canada and have a wonderful husband Peter and a great son Joe and his vivacious wife Brooke, and am so lucky to have become "Nanny" to little Addie who just turned a year and a half, and who is, I might add, my greatest inspiration in scrapbooking! I have met a few of you and it's great to be able to join this group (thanks so much, Claudia!) and meet everyone else too.

Marjean, here, and it's wonderful to meet all of you. When I'm not hogging the computer making scrap pages, I am busy chasing around my two teenagers and their activities. Being a leader in Boy Scouts takes up most of my time (my 15 yr old is almost an Eagle Scout). The newest family "giving back" is animal rescue. We foster animals waiting for adoption and transport others to many rescue units around our area (lots of miles on the vehicles). I love to cook when I get the chance, but lately I hog the computer and the kids hog the kitchen.
This site is absolutely wonderful in the chance for those around the world to share their vision and talent. KEEP SCRAPPING!!!
(Thanks, Claudia, for bringing this little group of extraordinary people together.) ~Marjean lost in western Oklahoma

Hi everyone!

Just saw that I haven't introduced myself to you all AND not being very active here in the group. How rude of me..
I am Suzan a.k.a. Trouble (a nickname that was given to me in May last year by Backstreet Boy Alex Mclean. Why? Because he liked it. Not that I have ever caused trouble with any of them hihi). My other nickname is SuzyQ. I am huge fan of Westlife & The BSB and I come from Holland. I work at a medical publisher's office where I work at the customer care centre. I love to write fanfiction/ stories (rather in English than Dutch!!), Ireland, travelling, Westlife, BSB, my friends and ofcourse digital scrapbooking. I'm glad that I've found this site cause the people are nice and it gives me a chance to show my work to strangers as well and learn from them :)
So uhhh more you want you know? Just ask me! *smiles*

Love Suzan

Hello scrappy people
Have been a member of SBF since May but have only just began visiting regularly....I'm a digi scrapaholic, amongst other things, living with my hubby of 33 years in beautiful Pembrokeshire (Wales,UK). We have 2 wonderful sons and a very precious grandson who features in my first scrapbooks here on SBF. I also love photography and enjoy using my various PC progammes to create digiart. The inspiration I have gained from this site is amazing and I spend far too much time browsing!! I'm still finding my way around at the moment and thought that Claudia's 'Friends' group would be a great place to start in meeting new happy scrappers..
wishing you all lots of Love, Laughter and Friendship..

I am still learning and discovering new things.

I enjoy all of your pages! So creative!

Actually I've been around on SBF for quite some time but have been pursuing other things and am just now getting back to digi scrapping as I've missed it a lot. Nothing like the birth of another great-grandbaby to get me jump started! She's #4!

Hi everyone. My name is Liesl and I am a wife and mom to 2. My son turns 22 soon and my daughter is 18. My daughter was date raped at a party last year and fell pregnant so I am officially "Granny" to a gorgeous baby boy who was born in Nov although I am more of a mommy to him. My daughter is finishing school this year so I have taken over much of the mommy chores so that she can study and matriculate. I am a teacher at a girls private school which I love and I also do volunteer work at an orphanage although since Caeden was born I find it difficult to fit everything into a day so not getting there as often as I used to. I love digiscrapping and meeting people with similar interests. This is a lovely site and some gorgeous, creative work here to look at and admire. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of the friends group.

My name is Paula and live in Southern England and I am quite new to scrapbooking in general. I have done a few pages but nothing as spectacular as some I have looked at on here. I work at an Opticians as a receptionist/dispenser. I like to have fun but also have my arty side too. Hope I can use that side on here.

Hi Everyone, my name is Gwyneth, I have a bit of a running joke with Tracy about my nom de plume on here - I called myself crowdfollower because i followed a few friends here from another site. I am slightly obsessed with card making and digiscrapping, but also do other crafty things....but am a bit of a terchnophobe so learn slowly! I love the friendships i have made on here and much appreciate the learning from others. I find all your work inspirational.
I have recently moved home and been a little preoccupied with this, and next month will start what will probably be my last long winter holiday, as i dont think funds will permit maintaining this lifestyle through our early retirement - so i hope to make the most of this winter in Tenerife.....and when i return who knows , voluntary work, further education...i want to make the most of this wonderful gift of early retirement....
