From time to time I get an email from you helping this group to be better. Some of you prefer to read, some of you would like to come out but are shy. No matter the RCS army of lurkers also deserve some acknowldegement for hanging in there. I hope that you will all make an effort to come out and play and flood this newgroup with interesting posts. We sure would like to hear from you! Tell us who you are and where you come from and how long you've been scrapbooking! Tell us about your favorite scrapbooking tool or technique. Tell us about the last crop you attended or why you never have attended a crop. share with us the last class you took and what you learned.



Whether you do come out and play or not. Thanks for the emails you send that help this group, and for liking us all enough to lurk!


Hello I am a bit of a lurker...I admit it! So when I read this I decided to jump in. Here goes I am in Central Illinois, and I have been scrapping for almost a year, and YES I am addicted. I have even had those thoughts of quitting work just to stay home and scrap! HAHA fat chance of that happening! I work in a grocery store bakery as the head cake decorator, and I have been there almost 9 years. I am married 13 years (Together 19), and we have two boys 16 and 9. I went to a scrapbook store sponsored crop last October, and it was fun, tho a little crowded. They had little mini classes, and they had some cute ideas on shadowboxes and some stamping techniques. I am going to the Heartland Stamp n Scrap show in Bloomington, Illinois on March 5th! My friends and I are going to shop and crop til we drop! The crop is from 10 am til midnight! Then we are going to spend the night and come home the next day I am very much looking forward to this event!! here's a link if anyone is interested!

Thanks for inviting us lurkers to come out! Linda C

Stamping and Scrapping!!! Be still my heart. I hope you have a great time. Be sure to report back.

Welcome to the group Linda. What part of Central Illinois are you in? We used to live in the Chicago area and have friends in Hillsboro.

Have fun at the Stamp n Scrap show. Let us know all about it when you get back.

Thanks for "coming out" Linda :). Another scrapbook addict! I am sure that you too will fit right in! Have we done a good job of enabling your habit?

Are most of your scrapbook pages about your children? Sounds like a great event. I'm actually going to my first store type scrapbooking class on Sunday. It's a heirloom cardmaking class, but I thought the samples were really great and figured that I could apply the techniques to scrapbooking!

I look forward to seeing your layouts and hearing about your overnighter as well!

Very welcome Linda! Thank you for coming out to play! :))

Judy, SA

Welcome Linda - waving from across the pond at ya! I also crept out from the shadows yesterday, so it is nice to have some company :o) I look forward to sharing with like-minded people.

Welcome Linda! Sounds as though you are properly addicted, that saves us time! LOL now we can move on to the "enabling" part! LOL

Have fun at the Stamp n Scrap! Be sure you give us a full report, what's new, what you saw. What you liked, what you didn't like...ect.....I'm sure you get the idea.....some of us are sadly isolated and are unable to go to cool things like that!

Hi Linda!

I'm in the south Chicago burbs and will be going to a scrap/crop on Mar 19 in Springfield, IL. Where are you? If you're close, wanna come along? :-)

Glad to have you here! :-) Theresa in IL
