New to all this

[DivingIn2020]

Hello! I am new to this and trying to meet new ppl and get my foot into scrapbooking. I have my mother in law to help me with scrap booking. I also want to me some cool ppl to talk to. Any suggestions?
All have a blessed day!

You'll love this hobby! Welcome to the message board here. There's lots of fun and friendly people here. Check out the contests and challenges topic. We have monthly challenges hosted by other members where random winners can receive gift certificates to the store here. They're a great source of inspiration.

Thank you! I have done some of the Challenges. Just trying to find the right paper to go with my pictures is over whelming. But I know I will get there.
Have a blessed day!

Welcome to ACOT!  There are so many friendly people here.  I found it really easy to fit in and the gallery is full of inspiration.  This is such a fun hobby!  Hope you get to lovin' it as much as we do!   I saw your gallery and your work is awesome!

Welcome! It won't take you long to get to know some of us here on ACOT. It's a great resource for scrapbooking questions and discussions. Look forward to seeing more of your work.

Welcome! Its so easy to find a place here. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. If you have any questions just ask on the board. welcome and enjoy scrapbooking

Welcome!  This is the best scrappy store, the best scrappy website with the best scrappy inspiration, and the best scrappy message board on the internet.  This hobby can indeed be a little overwhelming at first, but like others have said . . . take your time.  Eventually, you'll reach a point where you're buying paper for future pictures you might take, instead of trying to find paper for pictures you already have.    And as far as cool people to talk to . . . I think you'd be hard pressed to find a cooler bunch than us Cherries, but then again, I'm very biased.

Welcome you will meet amazing people here at ACOT.  Hope to get to know you and share ideas.

[Linda L]

Hello and welcome to ACOT. We would all love to get to know you. I don't think you could find a better bunch of people to talk to... the Cherries here are a great bunch of people. I don't know them all but I do know they are all here to talk with us and help us out any way they can. So jump on board, we all could use another friend. I hope you like it here. And don't worry I am a long time scrapbooker and I still have problems with paper at times or even a layout. Sometimes I surprise myself at what I create. LOL!! 

[beachlover]

Welcome to the right place!!!  And a lot of us have gotten together in person; with other cherries within driving range and nearby or some have taken vacations and met up with cherries!!
Where do you live?  Have you just started scrapping yourself and tell us about your family!!  Sorry if you have already answered these questions; I did not scroll through the posts!

[beachlover]

Thank you! I have done some of the Challenges. Just trying to find the right paper to go with my pictures is over whelming. But I know I will get there.
Have a blessed day!

just an idea...  I have had trouble matching papers to a photo before...  sometimes my photo itself may be a bit to busy or the colors are just a bit 'off'...  so I edit my photo and and make a black and white copy of it (saving my original too) and scrap the b&w 

[JillinIN]

Welcome!
There's a lot of great inspiration in the gallery and a lot of great cherries here to talk to.
Glad you're joining us!

[emmapaige]

Welcome - you couldn't have come to a more friendly and inspirational place.  If you have any questions, please post away and there will always be someone here to help.

[mgehrke]

Welcome!!! You have come to the right place. Lots of friendly and helpful Cherries just waiting to get to know you and help in any way we can.
