Hi! Not new to digital scrapbooking, but new here!

I've been scrapbooking digitally for about 14 1/2 years and on paper a few years before that. I use GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program) which is legally free. I'm married and have a teenage son, 1 dog, and 2 cats. I've been shopping here over a year and kept looking at the nice challenge kits, but didn't think there was any way I could do 10 layouts in a month. This month's challenge kit is so cute I thought I'd give it a shot, found out you don't have to do all 10 in one month, and as of now I'm already up to 8!
 
It's not as hard as you might think to get all 10 done but it sure takes the pressure off to know that you only need to complete as many as you can and want to, and your total can be carried over to the next month. It's a wonderful challenge system! Have fun!
 
Sorry I am so late welcoming you. I see you have posted some layouts, you need to keep posting :) I have taught classes on GIMP, but am not the most knowledgeable. I use Photoshop every day, and taught GIMP because it is cheapest to use in the classroom. It is pretty impressive.

Anyway, you will love all the inspiration and things we do here. It is such a wonderful site and so very welcoming.

Hello! How did it go getting your challenge kit? Were you able to meet your deadline? I hope so. I love when the kits come free. But like you, I have a hard time getting 10 done. I hope you are enjoying your time here!
