OH, YAY--another member already! That makes three of us and to me, three is enough! Love all the topics you proposed. Lisel. Yes, yes, yes . . . smiley Alone no more . . . I have found MY PEOPLE! *happy sniffle*

I am so glad the speed-up tip was useful to you! Woo Hoo!

And I am thrilled I could make you laugh, Tricia. Sometimes my silliness is not appreciated so much around here so finding an audience is awesome. smiley You might not want to encourage me too much though. Just sayin'. smiley I think we are gonna have to do something definitive to decide who is president of the club. Like who owns the most stuff, but first I would have to FIND all of mine to get an accurate measure sooooooooo maybe we just take rotating turns on who gets to wear the Presidential Tiara for each meeting. (Oh, yes . . . I do think we need a Presidential Tiara! The gaudier, the better!)

That word art is the absolute best! I want that T-shirt! Like in five colors so I can wear one every day of the week! You really should sell that on Redbubble or Zazzle. We can't be the only three with this affliction! So, so cute and I laughed so hard I scared all my pets. Whew! Thank you for that! Let me know when you have that design up for sale and I will place my order! In the meantime, I am off to snag some more fonts I HAVE to have! Thanks so much for the enabling, I mean--LINKS! smiley

Sarah, your word kit turned out so dang pretty! You did such a good job on everything. I absolutely love the ones with glitter words and the one that says "Home" is gorgeous! Good job! I hope you had fun doing them and I know people are going to be snagging them for sure. (Oh, I just looked at your stats . . . 30 downloads already! Way to go!) The BT's are always kinda light on word art so I think people will find this kit especially useful to go with their other downloads.

Thanks so much for doing the Scraptorial and for sharing your results. I am so excited to see your beautiful kit. It just really is very, very nice. I am impressed with you, my friend! smiley

And of course, you are very welcome. I hope you find Part 2 just as fun! Can't wait to see what you create.


I just bought a bunch of T-shirt iron-on transfers. I think I should print t-shirt for you! Lime green maybe? If you are serious about wanting one, e-mail me your size and address...and you will get a surprise in the mail.
And maybe even a crown, Ms. President! smiley
I still have a bunch of gems & sequins from when my kiddos made art projects:

I could make it REALLY gaudy!!
You might need that purple lipstick to go with it smiley

Oh Em Gee . . . that would be beyond amazing. You are too MUCH and how I adore you for that! I would be beyond thrilled, but you must let me reimburse you for your materials and shipping. I insist! (And I think it is cute that you think I don't already own purple glittery lipstick!) If someone looked through most of my makeup drawer, they might think it belonged to a particularly flamboyant Drag Queen! I can't help it . . . I love bright colors and makeup and I might hoard it as well! I am picturing a really wild layout commemorating the Scrapping Hoarders Unite Club (I mean it will have to be wild to go with the lime green shirt, the purple lipstick and the Presidential Tiara that can be seen from space, right?)and I haven't been this excited since Andy Gibb kissed me when I was 21! My MONTH is made just thinking about it and it is only the 1st! smiley Will I be able to sleep tonight? Not for awhile! Too excited. smiley

HEHEhehehehehehehe! I love it, Tricia!
Oh, the lime green and the tiara, fabulous!

Hiya! Just lurking for now, but I did want to tell you, in case it's not too late, that I take courses over at Digital Scrapper, and almost everyone there who upgraded to Win11 hated it and went back to Win10! Just FYI. (I use a MacBook Pro, but sometimes their upgrades suck, too. I try to upgrade only as much as necessary to keep software running). Good Luck!

Oh, thank you for the head's up, Deborah! (And, HI!) I hate upgrading things in general--this old dog doesn't like new tricks--so of course, I was dreading the Win11 upgrade without knowing this tidbit. My husband works in IT and is always nudging me to "get with the program" and download the latest of everything, but perhaps I can dissuade him on this point or quietly regress to Win10 when he isn't looking. smiley

And now I am formally asking you to consider un-lurking and joining in! I love to meet new people and get chatty and of course see what you are creating, if you are of a mind to share, and I hope that you are! No pressure, but I am greedy and always want more like-minded friends who like to talk designing. I appreciate your helpful comment very much!

Well, I love your style and you crack me up! So now you have another person who thinks you're funny! I really enjoyed your first scraptorial and made a few papers, but forgot to post them. I used to do patterned papers years ago with PSE 14 and had a great deal of fun then. I took the plunge and upgraded to PS 2019 and haven't looked back (although I still like PSE's interface better (easier to see things)). Also, you have another member for your hoarding club! I'll try to remember to post my papers on that thread. See you then!

Check out how much time you have to go back to Win10, because I think there is a time limit once you upgrade to Win11 to go back for free.

Well, well, well . . . peer pressure DOES work! smiley And bless your kind heart for saying you find me funny. That just makes me so dang happy. smiley I am so excited to hear you tried out the pattern-making scraptorial, and I would LOVE to see your papers. Please do post them in that thread so I can applaud your efforts.

I've never actually used Elements, but I have looked at the interface and it is cleaner/easier to spot the tool icons. And I am pretty sure it does 90% of what Big Boy PS does . . . but that 10% gap is a lot of fun things! And I am all about the fun things. Glyphs, warping, styles, actions. I finally took the plunge and gave up my beloved CS6, and splurged on a subscription to the Photographer's version of PS CC. It's $9.99 a month and I have spent that amount of money many times over and much more foolishly. smiley Still wish they were selling upgrades for physical copies, but that ship has sailed. Greedy Adobe!

Yes, another member for our Hoarding Club! I knew there were more of us hunting/gathering types around! I swear I spend a lot more time gathering up goodies, than actually using them, but it is perfectly LEGAL and keeps me off the streets. Welcome to the club, Deborah! smiley

Okay, I will just beg my husband pretty-please not to even download Win11 for me. Just because it is new, doesn't mean it is better . . . especially when we are talking Microsoft. Let them work the bugs out for two years, THEN I might consider trying it out.

Looking forward to seeing your papers!
