New/Lurker Girl in VA

[ladyozma]

Hey there everyone,

I'm a lurker / kinda new. I'm getting brave and posting... :)

My scrapbooking goes in spurts. Mostly when I have time. I have two sons ages 10 and 8 that drive me up the wall... I mean keep me busy! I homeschool them so it seems as though my time for me is limited. But that's OK. It's worth it! Pulling out the supplies can be a pain in the tailbone, you know? But digital scrapbooking is a whiz! Especially since I shoot primarily in digital now! :)

I decided maybe I should give a shout out and actually pay attention to the message boards instead of just surfing your amazing works of art! :) This spring I've been involved in several digital scrapbooking projects that's really pulled me out of the woodwork so to speak.

Anyway, howdy!

hey! glad to see you posting - can't wait to see some layouts

[kim]

Welcome to DSP!!!! WE are happy to have you here! :)

[ladyozma]

Thanks you two! I have pages... but I"m afraid to upload them because what if I forget to give credit for something! I made 10 pages last week in the space of two days under a great deal of stress. I did them so fast (though they look great) and was just grabbing stuff from my computer hard drive... HAHAHAHAHAHA I'd hate to leave someone out! I'm also not really sure what to categorize the darned things under. I went to upload one and there was only about a million options!!! EEEEK!

[IreneA]

Welcome to DSP! Hope to see your layouts soon - it would very interesting to take a peek! :)

[ladyozma]

You will be happy to know that i got brave! I posted my latest two pages! :) OK, these were done up really fast because I just wanted to get the pages to the girl... I went to a bridal shower yesterday and ended up being the photographer because the bride's camera batteries were dead! Good thing I ALWAYS have my camera with me! HEHE I was more than happy to oblige. I gave her a CD with all her photos and these two pages today as a further gift. which makes me feel better about the dollar store bride flipflops I gave her... ROFL. Don't feel near as cheap now!

I don't know how to post what I did in my siggy like some of you, but hopefully you guys can find my layouts... I think given the short amount of time, I did a pretty decent job... the couple really liked them and so did the bride's mum! Woot! :)

Thanks for encouraging me!! :)

Welcome welcome!!! I took a peek at your gallery, and I think you're off to a great start! :) I'm from VA as well, south of Richmond. Looking forward to seeing more layouts! :)

[ladyozma]

Hey you aren't that far from me. I'm only an hour from Richmond! :) I have some more layouts I want to post but it's going to be searching out the stuff I used because I whipped them up so fast.... Thanks for saying I'm off to a great start!! :)

Welcome to DSP, Ladyozma! If you don't know who to credit when uploading, just say so in the credits. If someone recognizes it, they will let you know so you can credit properly. You can credit properly with any new pages you create. :)

[ladyozma]

That's a relief... I've got a bunch of pages... just like I said, I made some so fast that I was just grabbing graphics on my computer and at this point I haven't a clue where ANYTHING came from! I felt guilty not being able to properly credit things that I didn't want to upload. If someone notices something I forgot to credit, I'll happily edit in credits! The designers here are completely and totally amazing! They deserve every bit of credit for their wonderful work!

Welcome to DSP! I have a 10yr old myself :) Still getting used to that BIG number, he turned 10 last month. 10 sounds SO BIG!

[Amber Gray]

So glad you decided to introduce yourself! You have some great pages and I look forward to seeing more!

Hi Amber. I'm new and I was wondering how did you put the bear under your name? I would like to add my pic on mine. Thanks for your help.

so glad to see you participating and getting into this! We all go in spurts after the initial obsession "honeymoon" wears off! I set aside time to scrap just for me on Sundays after church, so I can relax and do something I put off during the week. There's a Sunday chat for that too. Welcome!
