Hi all, I am new here on the Lilypad and also new to the "digi" world of scrapbooking. I just started digital scrapbooking this past week. I am a mom of two boys and love the outdoors. I have scrapbooked since 2007, but have gotten out of it the last three years since moving into our new home. (NO ROOM-FOR ME) Now that all my kids are out of the house I am converting one of the rooms into a "ME SPACE" and have decided to get back into scrapbooking. A friend introduced me to digi scrapbooking and have been playing around with it. Still learning..... I am also learning the ropes on the whole "empty nest" thing. My youngest just joined the Army in October and let me tell you it's been rough. I decided it was time to find something fun for me to do and enjoy so not to stare at the walls. I live out in the country and my hubs travels all the time and gone 80-90% of the year with his job. (Works in Oil/Gas Refinery)
Welcome to the Lilypad! We have quite a few people who moved from paper to digi, me included. I made the switch in 2013, and I love it. We have some other military moms, or current/former military peeps hanging out here. I don't have experience with it, but I do have to say Thank you to your son and your family. There are a lot of helpful people if you get stuck as you are learning. I know, I used them a lot when I was learning! I hope you share your pages with us in the gallery, I'd love to see your country home! Yeah for having Me Space!

Welcome! I switched from traditional scrapbooking to digi about 9 years ago & have never looked back. I love it! You'll love TLP.
