From Ginger - store and site owner at Ginger Scraps
I recently learned about the site ScrapGirls closing, this is so sad for the digital scrapping community. I know that it is sooo hard when you have a site that you feel like it's your second home, and then they have to close. It is so difficult and disheartening.
I wanted to take a moment to give a BIG GingerScraps welcome to any scrappers coming over from ScrapGirls. We are so happy to have you here!!
I'm the owner, I opened GS almost 16 years ago, it is my passion and I have no plans on closing the doors. Of course I can't predict the future, but I hope to keep GS up and running for many, many years to come and I would be honored if you make us your new home site.
The first place you will want to stop is the Welcome Wagon: The GingerScraps Welcome Wagon
You can collect some fun gifts from a variety of our designers.
Here is a link to a lot of info TAKE A LOOK AT THIS THEAD : Welcome to GingerScraps!! Exclusive Goodies Just For You!
Hopefully you will feel at home here at GS in no time at all. We have a lot of super friendly member here and they are always happy to help!
Please let me know if you have any questions, you can always reach me directly vi the support ticket system: Contact Us
I look forward to getting to know you and seeing your beautiful work in the gallery!-

I searched in among my saved EHDs that had not been thrown out when our home was cleaned out after the floods 2 years ago and found one had old stash from years ago. I was able to use two items by the store owner who was the owner at the beginning - Ro and then I have used products by our current and last store owner - Angie.
You can find my layout in the gallery HERE

Thanks for keeping us informed about your experiences and learning.
I was not leaning towards GingerScraps because it seems so confusing, but someone told me they have a Gallery for non-GIngerScraps layouts. If SG went there we could do challenges and post there to start and then maybe branch over. I'm not sure what their layout requirement percentages are - that stuff is so alien to ScrapGirls.You can use anything on your pages and upload them to the gallery at Ginger Scraps ( no linking to other stores) but you cannot use just anything in the challenges if you want to take part in the Cookie Jar to receive the Collabs. I have in the past taken part in a challenge using other designs but not added my layout to the Cookie Jar and that was accepted.

Thankyou @Mikelle for hosting Project Life.

@DRB Designs Will you be selling your designs anywhere else? I just took advantage of your great sale as I did not already have much of your designs in my stash and wish I had realised that sooner.

@englishrose Hilary, on the Digital Scrapper site - click on your avatar in the top right corner - click on "notifications". Then untick all the things you do not want to receive emails about.

As I think I mentioned to someone - we may not all end up at the same place and that is okay.
I was already a member of Digital Scrapper but not active so I have been looking there but do not like their set up much - challenges hard to find and gallery is not very user friendly.
I am a member at The Studio and was a little active there at one time but did not really like their challenges much.
I am very active at Ginger Scraps and slightly active at The Lily Pad so I possibly will just remain at those two.
We will see the results of the poll Celestine is setting up for us.
P.S. to above statement about The Studio - just had a good look and their challenges seem better than they used to be.

@Designs by Helly I am sorry for your loss and understand your feelings towards not moving to another store.

I can't find the challenges. I did do a search and I see posts linking to challenges at other sites or the classes but not specific to digital scrapper. Did I miss them?
Bea, if you look at the Community Forum.... scroll down and whenever you see 3 hearts in different colours - they are the challenges.

Congratulations to all the winners!
@April Showers I am going to miss your posts telling us of all the winners.

Thankyou Angie.
I am already a member over there for the classes and now have joined the community. It looks a good place to be, especially as we can dig into our old and new Scrap Girls stash to create layout with to share in their gallery.

I have sent my email to April.

Terri, this is just a suggestion.... add a new layer above the background layer under the dog layer and fill that new layer with white. If that works then delete the bottom background layer.

Mikelle, I am so pleased to see this challenge as I had thought myself it would be good to all share what this site has meant to us. So, hopefully I will return sometime this month with a layout.

I found the quote I wanted to use. It is actually on a piece of paper art I created many years ago and was kept on a noticeboard frame thing I rescued from our flooded home - the water did not reach it. The paper art was a page for a collaborative book with the theme of Birds. I think I needed to create about 12 the same pages as 12 people took part in the project.
To create my ATC, I was determined to use designs from one of my favourite Scrap Girls designers - Amanda Fraijo-Tobin and I ended up using 3 items by Amanda.
My ATC is in the gallery HERE

Angie, I know this must have been such a difficult decision for you. Thankyou Angie for all you have done to help make this a great place to be.
This was one of the first sites I ever joined back in 2008.
I have learnt so much from this place and enjoyed so much comradery. There was one member - Debra ( I am sure was the name who is no longer active) who really guided me in those early times of me learning to use PSE6.
The chats in the chat room were a lot of fun.
I have a few times eased off being active here but there has always been something that has drawn me back.
I will miss this place and lately am not so active in a couple of other sites but I do hope I can somehow see you all around digi-land.

Andrea, being a bird lover I do like the theme for this month. I might see if I can find a quote about birds that I really like but do not remember it all.
