Hi Sue and Margaret!
Sorry I missed you there! Just finished posting my essay to Kim, lol!
Yes, is'nt it great to see the forum so busy again, I'm sooooo chuffed!
I do feel a bit bossy telling everyone they MUST! come back to the forum lol! but it seems to have done the trick, horray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well, at least for today, long may it last, hey girls!
Sue, I'm so sorry to hear that your hip is still playing up, poor you! I think I need to zap it with a few extra special sparkles, righty, here they come!  hope they start working their magic soon Sue! I hope everything starts moving on the old building front too Sue, or should I say, mortgage offer! I just want to start playing with my stash again, I sooooooo miss it, lol!
Thanks Margaret, I noticed you posting all this week, it's been great to see you on so much lately. How's that lovely little grandchild of yours, I bet she's beautiful, can you pop some pics in your gallery? would love to take a peek.
I suppose I'd better call it a night now girls, busy morning tomorrow, and I'm still not completely packed, lol! Oh well, it will be fine.
It's been really lovely hearing from so many of you today, I'm going to keep this bumped up for a while and hopefully a few more of our lovely pals will return.
Have a good night everyone  and thanks for all your replies, it's been brilliant to hear from so many of you again!

Hi Carol!
Just spotted you there, and had to reply before I really do go to bed, lol!
It's lovely to see you posting too, like you say Carol, I think a lot of us have popped by but things have been soooo quiet recently not that many have posted. I really hope this is can be a turning point for the forum and brings back our crafty pals and some new sparkles too 
Don't worry about buying all that stash Carol, I think we're all guilty of that one, lol! I have tons!!!!! and to be honest I don't think in a life time I will get through it all, but there's always the need for more, lol!
Lesley has just started a brilliant sparkle tag swap, take a peek at the other post, that's sure to get a few mojo's started again, it would be great if you could join in too Carol.
Hope to see more of you on the forum too Carol especially now you have all that wonderful stash to play with, lol!
Righty, time for bed me thinks!
Chat to you all soon!
Happy Sparkly Crafty Dreams to you all!

Hi all I am not here very often, but I do visit the gallery on a daily bases. I'll try to pop up on the forum as well more often, at least to say HI. It is sad that people are losing interest in the gallery and forum, as it helped me a lot to develop confidence and stile in scrapbooking. I hope I will see more of your work in the gallery in future. happy crafting

I'm with some of the others on here - I don't come on as much now (not that I've ever been one to actually "chat" on here), but it's due to other commitments along with using FB and other sites. I tend to go through phases where I use one or two sites for a while, then find myself using different sites - eventually I'll be back to this one more regularly. I do pop on once or twice a day and comment on anything that's relevant or of interest to me. Personally I've had no issues with the site and the changes that have happened. RachelJC

Awwwww Thank you so much for such a lovely welcome back.
Like I said, I have the summer off to try and get myself straight here (2 years worth of neglected housework to catch up on! lol). You may remember that my son has autism and I have my hands pretty full here, but I have gone and lost the plot totally I think by signing up to do a sponsored skydive from 15,000ft to raise money for his special shool. If I still have the use of my arms and legs after that I'll be scrapping to the max (I can't wait). If you have the chance, take a look at my sponsorship page (I think my skydiving photos will make a fab page to start me off).

Good luck with the building project - OH has been decorating our house for the last couple of months (when he finds the time - he has all that commuting to do) and we have gone crazy throughout with a very appropriate colour scheme - lunatic white x x x PlasterCaster

Helloooo!!! I'm another guilty one I'm afraid!! Things got a bit hectic for me a while ago, then when I had some time to come back on here I found that the site had all changed, and I didn't like it one little bit!!
I still don't like the site as it is set out now, but I will try to make the effort to come on here more often!
I am still crafting, have nearly completed a mini book about the bird of prey experience my daughter had while on holiday. Will try and put pics on here when it's finished, depends if the site will let me or not!!
Hope to speak to you all soon, Zoe xxx

Well I'm very guilty of leaving but in all honesty I don't turn the laptop on much these days and I can't access this place from my blackberry it just will not let me log in. I spent months waiting for reply and have finally got one {via twitter} it works on iphones so there shouldn't be a problem...i admit I now have fault with my phone so am hopeful it will mean I can get on here with a new one. However in my absense I have been a very active crafter http://sallz.blogspot.com/ shows everything i've done lately, finished a couple scrapbooks, done all my Christmas cards and more besides. I will try and remember to at least get here oh once a month if someone will yell at me enough? I won't commit to more often because I'm afraid I'll lose my crafting time sorry. May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun and find your shoulder to light on; to bring you luck; happiness and riches; today, tomorrow and beyond.  Sall

Despite stupidly commiting myself to reappearing I do have one problem with this site and it's not docrafts...its the size of the fonts being used...seriously having three words to a line is for me highly unacceptable...As much as I love chatting to you all....waiting the five mins for my laptop to reszie and actually load the page only to claim it exceeds the magnifyer is a WASTE of my time. I think I've made my point {no doubt it will be ignored} because excessive size fonts and shouting at peolple in that way is usually what wins in the end. I hope to be proven wrong May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun and find your shoulder to light on; to bring you luck; happiness and riches; today, tomorrow and beyond. Sall

Hi everyone
i too am guilty of not being on here very often, there seem to be a million and one other things that need to be done around the home or work. I will pop in from time to time, but not as often as i did. I dont have a facebook account so will carry on reading your blogs and reading the messages you leave on mine!

I haven't been on to this site for absolutely ages. I came on a few years ago and met up with a local scrapbooker. I usually do ATC's but that forum is becoming annoying with all the changes. Because I don't come on very often, I cannot always remember how to do things. When it is different every time I come on to it - then it gets very difficult. I have no problem with change as long as it makes things easier. I am doing a lot more scrapbooking these days so I will probably pop onto here more often.

I am a guilty one too! I have neglected crafting, do-crafts and my blog due to FIL, who has now sadly passed away from his cancer, the funeral is next week. My father is now in a poor way, after an emergency appendix operation at age 86! so I am still not sure how much 'me' time I will have, but I wanted to say I miss you all! CC xx Caroline x

Dear all!
Can I just say how lovely it is to see so many of you back! It's wonderful to know you're still out there and hopefully we'll start to see you posting more regularly and some new scrappers too!
Kim, I do remember you mentioning your son, I think you're great to do the skydive, good luck with that, you're soooo brave, not sure I could do it! I'll be sure to take a peek at your website.
CC, I was very sorry to hear about your FIL and your own Dad too. I really hope things get better for you and your Dad very soon, sending lots of hugs and sparkles to you!
Waves to everyone else who has posted on here, so many wonderful crafters have replied and I am honestly so delighted with the responce.
Please keep coming back everyone, it is really you that makes the forum what it is, and it's just lovely to see so many of you posting!
Hugs and sparkles to you all!
