Hey gang!  Look at all of those users down there on the bottom left of our screens!  WOWSERS!!  My challenge for you this weekend is to click on the name of someone you don't already know and meet them.  Ask them 5 questions...any questions you want...and then report back here who you reached out and touched.  I'll hand out points for some friendly Board Members on Sunday.  Who knows, you might just make a great connection!!Have fun!!

I just met Carol (memagomes) from Greenwood, Arkansas.  She drives a Passat, has scrapped for 5 years, found us through a swap site and her fave Jelly Belly flavor is Wild Cherry...pretty appropriate Hi Carol!! 

Fine people....I don't need you. I'll make my own friends...humph I also met jcsmaestra.  She lives in NY (Yay Yankees!) and she drives a Chevy Avalanche.  She's been scrapping for 4 years and found us through a link.  Her fave Jelly Belly flavor is Pina Colada.  If you need me, I'll be singing Rupert Holmes

I just met Melanie (twinsmom1). She has been scrapping for 10 years now. She has been on this site for almost a year now.  She doesn't use any special tools when she scraps. She still uses her Sizzix. (Which I don't even have yet )  She enjoys stamping more on her layouts but wishes she had more stamps. And gave me a little heads up on twins since she is a twin mommy. My brother and his girlfriend are due in April with twin boys.
