This probably doesn't count since I don't scrapbook anymore sadly but as of may it's been 21 years for me! LeeAndra and I have known each other from the very beginning.

I started scrapbooking in college waaaay back in 1996. Jeez, that's 28 years <choke>. I was a traditional paper scrapbooker until 2004, when I started dabbling in digital. I made the switch and ditched my physical supplies in 2007. While I still do hybrid projects, I'm a digi-girl at heart!

I think I started scrapbooking the year Grey's Anatomy debuted because I very much remember turning it on in my home office where I used to scrap. Digital followed not too long after.

I started paper scrapping way back in 2001, and I switched to digi around 2011 or so. Basically forever!

2006 after my first son was born. I started with paper but switched to digital in 2008 after my second son came along. I haven't touched my paper supplies since even though I still have them all, sitting here gathering dust!

I started paper scrapping-CM way back in the late 90's. I stumbled upon digital scrapping through freebies....also the Shabby Princess while making IncrediMail backgrounds.

I started with Digi Scrapping in 2007 (17 years!). I have been making cards and paper scrapbooking pages since 2000 (shout out to Stampin' Up!). All my first digi pages are of my dog or my husband. Haha. It's fun to see how far I have come as a scrapper!

I started paper scrapbooking in 2007 after my first daughter was born. And found out about digital in 2010, never really went back to paper again. I only do hybride a very few times as a gift or something

I'm going to say about 20 years. I started with paper when my first child was born and went digi a couple of years later.

I've been doing some type of scrapbooking since high school - I was yearbook editor two years... so since 1992? (gosh, that is a long time ago... lol)

Officially paper scrabooking in 2001 when I had an extended business trip to England and I needed some way to preserve all the pictures (my step dad lent me his new digital camera - it saved photos to 3.25'' disks! haha)... then digital came in 2007 when I bought a digital scrapbooking software for my mom - she handed it back to me telling me to figure it out and teach her. I was frustrated with the paper and elements that was in that software and that is how I found Sweet Shoppe... and Robin has yet to shake me. haha

I started with paper scrapping in 1999 after being invited to a Creative Memories party. I converted to digital in 2007 after I purchased a wide format printer and it came with a CD with some free graphics and links to other digital content. I was hooked on digi from that point on and never paper scrapped again!

I think I started paper scrapping around 2003/2004. Found out about digital around 2005 or 2006. My poor paper supplies. I did use some of them here and there over the years with my boys for their school projects. lol

I started with tradional scrapbooking in 2001 and then switched to digi in 2007. What I find hardest to believe is that I've been designing for over 10 years now.
