were all you all from?
 
There are so many talented ladies here.
I would be interested to know where you all come from.

i don't think there are that many active scrapping girls here in germany anymore

when i started almost 20 years ago, there was quite a big bubble, but almost none of the girls are still active.

Wait, I didn't know you moved! Last I knew you were still in the Virginia area! You are closer to WDW now! ;)

I am from Michigan USA. My Dad still lives in the house him and my mom bought when they got married.

Born and raised in Alberta, Canada. I live about 30 minutes from where I grew up lol (I did go away, about 150km (1.5 hours) for 5 years, but have been back in this area since 2003).

Yup! We moved here in July and went to Universal for Christmas and are headed to WDW at the end of the month! If 3 out of the 4 of us didn't have jobs now we'd be there a lot more often! Or maybe not b/c we need said jobs to pay for Disney! Lol...

Funny, you live in Auckland with family ties to Canada, I live in Canada (Alberta) with family ties to Auckland lol My dad was really into genealogy before he passed. My maiden name was pretty unique, but he found the same one in New Zealand, and I don't know if they ever found out where they were related, but they've visited a couple times, and my parents went there too. They even met the Prime Minister of New Zealand (a lady? years ago) because she was distantly related to one of them

yes! but I'm on the other side (West Chester)

angiekey 05-10-2024 09:22 AM

Dallas, Texas!

But I was born in West Germany, spent most of my childhood in Northern Virginia just outside Washington, D.C., graduated from high school in El Paso, and when I came to Dallas for college my permanent mailing address was Honolulu, Hawaii. When people used to ask where I was from, I'd say "The Pentagon - 'cause that's where my Dad's orders come from." As soon as I had a say in where I lived, I put down some deep, deep roots - and now I'm a Texas girl.

3BluEyedBabi 05-10-2024 12:18 PM

Born & raised in Pennsylvania. Dreaming of living somewhere near the beach!

stephc777 05-27-2024 02:42 PM

I've lived in Idaho for over 40 years - it was so fun a couple of years ago to realize Tammy (craftytam) actually lives in my city. Prior to that, I hadn't met anyone who digi-scrapped in person.

carrie1977 05-31-2024 06:44 PM

imafishtank 06-18-2024 10:08 PM

Grew up in Northern California, got married and lived for the first 17 years of our marriage in Utah (most in Tooele), but now we're in Northern Kentucky. If I randomly ask you what county you live in (esp if you're in WA, ID, IL, IN, OH, KY, TN, GA, or AL---- it's not me being creepy- I work with jails and we have over 400 county jails across the US and I love knowing if people live in those counties)
