Hi, I found the board, wow! I am farily new to scrapping, I admit that I buy more than I scrap. I have been "stocking-up" for a few years now, but recently have begun to focus on actually using my stuff. I have participated in a few swaps, and I love it! I find that swapping allows me to see and learn new things which makes the idea of scrapping my pictures less scary the more I learn. I have 3 kids ages 2, 7 and 14. I work full time, such a drag, lol. We have a 5 acre farm with plenty of critters.
I look forward to getting to know you!

Welcome, Jean!
I have a 2 year old, too. I think when they're that age, you might as well just stock up on supplies cuz you never have time to do the actual scrapping!

SO true! It's not just the time I don't have, but she gets into EVERYTHING! Horribly. I have to turn my paper drawers around so she can't open them. Why I like swapping is because it deals with a limited amount of stuff, less trouble for her to get into! I just keep my swapping projects into one of those 'art-bins' - the ones with the handle and you get at J's for $14.99 and use the coupon. Then it gets done at lunch, lol.

I'm not saying forget what you lost
I suppose there's a purpose in pain
What we make of ourselves has a cost
And it's paid every time we take hold of the reins
