Hello, everybody! I am Trisha from Texas. I started scrapbooking when I was a child, really, but I updated my style when I was forced to redo all my albums after a flood in 1998. The water ruined all my albums, but very few pictures. Then I got into cardmaking. Although I have dabbled in many crafts over the years, it is paper crafting that still holds my interest. As I learn to use my cutters more, I am finding new challenges in both scrapbooking and cardmaking, and I am becoming more interested in 3D things as well.
When I wanted a bug cutting machine in 2007, my DH went behind my back and bought me a Craft Robo instead. I was so mad at him for a while. But now, having the Robo and my amazing 18" Black Cat Cougar, I always give him the credit for getting me into electronic cutters. If he ever gives me flack over getting another toy to use, I just politely tell him, "This is your fault, Honey. You got me into this! Now I NEED this tool too." What can he say? It's the truth! He just shrugs his shoulders and grins.
I am learning Inkscape (I think I will always be learning it!), and MTC. I am in love with my Black Cat Cougar. Even on the days I am too busy to cut anything, I can't resist wandering through my craft room just to say hello.
I'm looking forward to great things in this forum with a fun-loving bunch of wonderful crafting people! I see lots of familiar names, so I already feel very comfortable here. Thanks to Sherri, Dawn, Rachell, Christy, and everyone who helped get this off the ground.
