Hi I'm Janet or Granjan to my grandchildren, I try and get some creative scrapping done every day and I really don't like it when I can't even some little part done.
We have 8 children and 12 grandchildren so I never run out of pictures to scrap. We divide our time between Florida and Pa trying to get the good weather when we can. I love the challenges on here and try and get as many done as I can, they keep me inspired!
