Please stop by our website forums to say hello to Lynn as she is also our welcome committee.
Lynn is a dedicated mother of 3, ages 7 months to 5 years. She is also a dedicated
paper scrapper who runs http://www.Jewish-scrapbooking.com. She is new to digital
scrapbooking, but she learns fast! BTW, her dh is also a scrapping enthusiast and
we are determined to hook him on digi scrapping. Her two eldest children have
just created their first digi scrap layout about a week ago. You must see there
work in our gallery!!! They even attended a chat!!! So, give Lynn lots of hugs
and warm fuzzies!!! Welcome her to our community and show her how friendly
digi scrappers are!!!

We are sorry that Monica couldn't help us out, but being a young adult, she decided
it was time to move out of her parents' home (our dear Mary is her Mom) to live
on her own. You know what that means...more hours of work to pay rent and less
time to do the fun jobs that don't pay as well (currently at least). So to Monica, we
wish the best of luck and say, "You can always come home!" There will always be
a place for her in my heart and at Mimi and Softa's Scraptopia.

Don't forget our Halloween Marathon Party on Oct. 31st - 10 pm EST - Midnight EST. Lots of Prizes to give away!

Our CT Call is still open. For details on how to join a crazy bunch of women, (men are
welcome!) please email us at mimiandsofta@gmail.com.

Don't forget the deadline to join our musical "Magical Mystery Tour" is Nov. 20th at Midnight
EST. The deadline for submission of your contribution is Jan. 18th at Midnight. We will open
up to the public on Feb. 1st. Let's make this a huge success. You can use any music genre as your inspiration. We ask that you design one paper with lyrics included in design. Also, we
ask that you include lyrics for all the songs you use as inspiration. I know you will have lots
of fun with this collaboration blog party!!!!

our forum. Our home page has a downloadable "manual" to tell you how to navigate our site.
