I'm not a memeber either yet... I actually had planned on doing it before I decided I would sign up to be a demo. Now even after I get my started kit there are lots of things I'm gonna need to get that will have to come from my pocket even if I have a good workshop like a s SU heat gun and some other things that are similair but not SU.

Not a member yet either. Maybe after the holiday bills get paid down. Living in Japan I did almost all my holiday shopping online this year, which means.......the visa bill will be UGLY next month, lol

Not a member as of yet. I'm waiting to get my next full paycheck. We start Christmas vacation starting tomorrow and won't be back until Jan 3rd. What sucks though is that I get paid every other week. So my next check won't be until 2 weeks and that will only be a 3 day check. Then I'll have to wait another 2 weeks to get my next check. So I'm looking at joining sometime late January or February. Can't wait!!
Happy Holidays!!!!

I'm not a member either - new baby, barely enough money to get by, dh trying to get his degree to get a better job, etc etc etc. Fun stuff for me is at the end of the list of things that would be nice to buy but we can't.
This site is wonderful, I especially love that I can hear from Canadian ladies since I live abroad and miss my home dearly. I was inspired to make cards and date to remember matboard journals for Christmas this year. Saved a lot of money and everyone on our list gets a cool gift. Plus, all the cool ideas that people come up wiht on here are amazing.
Someday, maybe I'll win the lotto, or dh will finish his degree and get a job that pays better or......
Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to everyone on this site. May all of you find joy and peace in your hearts!

I am not a member, I wish I was but we moved recently to a new house and the old one still hasnt sold, we have a renter though and someone coming to look today that I pray will be blessed by our old house!!!! What a Christmas blessing that would be! Plus being a SAHM I have very little "expendable" income....one day I hope to be able to help support this website that I love to be on so much!!!!!! Plus the curiosity of what is in the DD is killing me!!!!!!
However I have been unemployed since the end of June and cannot afford to make the donation so I can see the gallery. I love the regular gallery so I am not too upset about it.... but it sure would be nice.
This is only my 2nd post ever, so you all probably don't know me.
Thanks and Merry Christmas Everyone!

I'm not a member of the DD gallery either. My husband and I went through bankruptcy, lost our house now we are renting and supporting two children we adopted from Russia.
I love SU and am a demonstrator. I come here first to inspire my creativity.
I hate to rejoice in the suffering of others... but.... I thought i was just about the only one who hasn't seen the DD gallery! I love this site and hope to be a contributor at some point. Gotta admit the curiosity kills me sometimes!!! I'm so very thankful for all the great stuff for free! Everytime i pass the computer i have to check. My kids laugh at me.
Merry Christmas and thanks everyone for the hard work you do to bless us with this site!

I am not a member of the fan club either! I just recently found SCS and it seems like I spend hours on this site! I am so inspired by all of the artwork in the gallery - everyone here is so talented! I would love to be able to access the DD gallery but unfortunately money is an issue, maybe one of these days!
Not a member either, but would love to be. Dh just started residency, new house and baby number 4 on the way so no extra cash. Really, no extra cash. It's been tricky to feed a family of 5 on $200/month grocery budget. I look at the $20 (and even though I think it's worth it to see all the great samples you do) I tend to think how I could get 6 gal of milk for that instead. No fun to be practical. But, I love this site and all the other free samples I can look at and get tons of ideas from. I probably have the hugest favorites section.
I am not a member either. What does one do to become a member? Is it much $?? Maybe I can send it on the 1st. New year, new horizons and new inspirations. How can I get info on this? I'd like to see what I'm missing out on.
I am truly inspired by the warmth of this site. You could have never convinced me one year ago that there would be people out there willing to give a complete stranger such a generous gift. I LOVE YOU GALS!!!
Nope, not a member, but that is probably for the best, I spend way too much time on here anyway :lol:

I'm not a member, yet. I intend to give back to the site once I have some spare money. My tuition check is due in a few weeks, so that is where my money will have to go first.
I am not a member either. I tell everyone about this site but have not joined the DD gallery. I was unaware of the membership until recently when you held a member ship drive. Christmas is a hard time to spend money on myself. Maybe in the new year.
I am also not a member....cannot afford it. I am off work for two weeks and don't have a job in the summer anymore since I work for the school system. I hope to look for something but that's hard to find in this little town. I tell everyone about this awesome site too. I think it's the best site to visit every day or every hour!

I am not a member of the DD gallery either. We can't swing it at this time since I am a SAHM - not exactly by choice and a college student. Hopefully, if I can find a job in the new year, I will be able to join and gift it to someone else too as a thanks for all the great ideas that I find on the site that made my first stamp camp in November a huge sucess and will probably make my January one bigger.
For those of who who have asked for more info on how to join -
For info on the Fan Club and the DD Gallery and how to join see the box at the upper left corner of the home page. For a $20 donation to support SCS you get access to the incredible creations of the DD. You will have access to all previous months as well. Daven has a Christmas special - if you'd like to give the membership as a Christmas gift to someone else it's only $15!!!
I hate to rejoice in the suffering of others... but.... I thought i was just about the only one who hasn't seen the DD gallery!
I was thankful (though I would love to see everyone have access) to see that I also wasn't alone in my "suffering". Like many of the others have reiterated, being a SAHM, kids and hubby come first and often I have to scrimp and save to get what I want. And then you have to choose what goodies to spend on too! I think this is a great idea, whether I received one or not, it's good to know there are such greatful hearts out there willing to share!
I'm not a member yet. I LOVE this site and will hopefully be able to swing it at the beginning of the year. Christmas for 4 kids kind of drains a bank account.

Alas, I, too, am not yet a memeber. Maybe at tax time...My husband would say "you want to look on SCS even MORE; you're already there 5 hours a day!"
I admit, I am addicted to SCS. I cannot get enough of the gallery, the forums, the wonderful ladies & Daven. I love how caring everyone is. Speaking of the caring on this site: Nick (little boy some of us sent a card to) has not only reached his goal of 10,000 cards but surpassed that goal---he received 42,000 cards!!!! Oh my gosh. I think that might be more than the number of swaps I have Here is his website if you'd like to read his updates: www.nickwaters.home.mindspring.com
Anyhow, Merry Chrismtas ladies and may God bless you into the coming year.
I'm not a member either...I just can't bring myself to spend the $. December is always a rough month, and this year was worse! We had to buy heating oil (our landlord used to buy it, but not anymore), and then our furnace needed fixed (which we realized after it burn up most of the heating oil...grrrr), my car needed worked on, and....I have to admit....I've bought some new trinkets for myself (Xyron, NaNavigator tote)...oh yeah, and don't forget about the Christmas gifts : ) Hopefully sometime next year I'll be able to swing it. How often does the gallery change?
My hubby lost his job last month (what rotten timing right before Christmas, so we cut most of our spending). Thank goodness he just started a new job and we can do a little for Christmas. I'm glad I have all of my fun stamping things--sister in law is getting a stamped birthday calendar, in-laws are getting homemade cards, mom is getting stamped calendar w/ scrapbook pages, grandmas are getting stamped metal pails with snow melt in them. I've found that I enjoy making a lot of things instead of spending $, but I wish the $ was not so much a factor.
I am so touched by the kindness of people on this website. What a fun Christmas suprise to get a gift subscription to the Fan Club. THANK YOU LISA CHENEY! You made my day!!!!
Location: It's for me to know & you to find out!!!

I am not a member yet either. I am completely addicted to SCS and check the gallery and forums everyday!! I am hoping to join the DD gallery sometime. I'm sure there are some wonderful things in there!!
I haven't joined yet. Since signing on as a demo I'm slowly building my stamp sets and replacing things that were non-SU.
I love this site! I "oh and ahh" over the daily gallery postings all the time. I can only imagine what the DD gallery is. All the members are wonderful and I've gained so much knowledge. It's hard to express my thanks to you all.
Best wishes to everyone and their families for safe and happy holidays!

I am also not a member. I would really like to be one and hope to be able to join soon. My husband and I just bought our first house and so all of our extra money is going there right now.
Ditto, we just bought our first house too.
