More Aussies!

Morning everyone ... my name is Nic and I'm also from the gorgeous state of Queensland in Australia.

I've got three (not usually willing) subjects for my photos and over the years have used the paper-based scrapbooking method to create the albums for the older two. Unfortunately that all stopped when my youngest and most demanding child arrived on the scene over 4 years ago. The time has come that to make a start on her album, but only trouble is I'm over all the mess I create when I scrap using the traditional method, which made me look into digital scrapbooking.

So here I am ... looking forward to learning lots and become addicted to digital scraping.

Thanks for the lovely welcome ladies.

My creative motivation seems to have gone AWOL in the last few years, so need to find it and get back into the swing of things. Not sure if the kids on school holidays is going to help me find my creativity or make it disappear further ... but we'll soon find out.

Welcome to GDS. I think we should rename sunny queensland - damn hot queensland at the moment. I have to lock myself in the study with the airconditioner on for at least half the day at the moment lol.
I am sure if you jump in your creativity will come back.
