Hi everyone! I'm new to scrapbooking and love the idea of it. Of course as a newbie it's kinda of scary when I go into the store and see of the things to use for it.

Welcome to the board. I do remember how daunting it was at the begininng...not knowing what to buy or how to start. There are a lot of helpful people here so don't be afraid to ask any questions you may have or any advice on products, etc.

Welcome to the board and I can also remember how overwheming it is to go looking for the stuff you need. Just ask questions and the ladies on here will be glad to help you.

Hi Veggiegirl228,
We all remember and believe me its normal. start with the photots and collecting pages that you like the look of for ideas. swaps are a way of aquiring some things for scrapping.

Glad you decided to join us. What part of California are you from? We have some CA girls on the board and I lived there twice with my Navy spouse.

Welcome! You will love it here! Lots of great ideas and all the help you could ever wish for.
Scrapping is loads of fun! Start with the basics and don't be afraid to ask for help.
Most of all have fun!
The best advice I ever got-
Don't get mad just get the camera! I have the best pictures of the craziest things and when you think back on stuff that upset you at the moment we always laugh at later!
