I did not get a shot of the original post by Tracie, but it was regarding a different 'mystery' FB scrapbook group, where a post was responded to from other members of that group and they were not nice. I felt she was stirring the pot and trying to create some drama, which she did. Here was a response to that original post: Eventually, Tracie went back and deleted the entire thread. I guess she did not want her 'followers' to see those true colors! They will not be deleted here. So unprofessional Tracie.

I for one am pleased to keep up with the Tracie saga. I don't care who is stirring the pot or why. Tracie has proclaimed herself a scrap celeb and as such her expressed views are fair discussion material.
What always gets me about those kinds of posts is while she is talking about why women reprimand, she completely smacked that poster on her thread AND told her that based on the poster's comment it was clear that the poster didn't like her and Tiffany. Boo hoo. Cry me a river. I think Tracie means well, I do. But I think she's kind of limited world experience wise. I don't think she's been out there interacting with real people of all opinions and diversity much. Not her fault. But since social media presence is very important to her, she needs to toughen up and learn to be tolerant of opposing views and maybe, shudder to think, actually learn something from someone else!

How is that post that TC is referring to a "reprimand"? myboysnme: "limited world experience"? I would agree.

This is spot on! On the NSBR thread some one said she hoped Tracie would read and comment, my reaction was the opposite. No matter how nice anyone puts it TC doesn't appear to be in a place to listen to and take any kind of criticism constructively. She just gets defensive, plays the martyr card and all her fan girls rally around her and tell her how awesome she is. It is unfortunate, like you I don't think she really understands how her actions and comments come across to people with broader life experiences.

She lives her life like she is some type of martyr for the scrappy world. Don't like the time investment in your podcast? Don't do it, lady!

You put yourself out there, people are gonna talk about you. You don't get to control that narrative and don't get to be all butt hurt when people call you out as being a hypocrite. I would legit buy Jen's sketch class if not for Tracie's involvement. I won't directly (indirectly either, if I can help it) support her. Redacted name calling because it just serves no purpose.

"For you to come into my house etc.?" Oh, Tracie sweetie, that's still Facebook's "house" even if you create a group. Also, criticism is necessary, even in one's own house. What kind of silly attitude is that? "I paid for this property, don't you dare show me anything else but love and agreement with everything I say and do." Also, most boring dinner parties ever. Limited world experience is one thing, the continued refusal to open one's mind is another...

Limited world experience is one thing, the continued refusal to open one's mind is another... Some people just don't have the ability to see any other view beyond their own. There are certain things that I can't wrap my head around (for instance, why certain people spend so much energy and time opposing other people's choices regarding whom they love and are attracted to when it doesn't hurt them in the least) but for most things, I consider myself pretty open minded and can agree to disagree. Part of being able to be a well rounded person is recognizing not only our flaws, but also that we each have character traits that will not always mesh well with other people, even if you feel that those character traits are good qualities to have. She comes off as someone who feels they have no such flaws and is just baffled that anyone would have anything negative to ever say about her. I don't necessarily think she lacks life experience, but she certainly lacks the ability to see her own actions for the callous acts that they are. She comes across as severely narcissistic and arrogant. She could stand to learn a bit of humility.

I know I'm a total fangirl, but I think this is a big part of why I enjoy Elle Price (Elle's Studio) so much. Sure, her name is on the door, but she is really behind the scenes. We aren't flooded with her personal life. She offers pretty product and has built a great little business just doing that. Professionally, I think Tracie took the wrong approach for her own professional path since it's very clear she rubs people the wrong way. It's very hard to do that if you just list things for sale and stick to that...it becomes a case of people liking what you're doing or not versus people assessing your character and the things that come out of your mouth.

I initially thought it is a narrow world view but I have to concede it is more narcissistic and arrogant. Before when she was 'one of us' I would still get into it with her at times but now that she is a self styled celeb the things that rubbed me the wrong way I see now are a product of how she sees herself as above reproach in comparison to others. Maybe her pod casts are informative and even humorous, I have not listened. But her written online presentation is so hypocritical. Every post is about why people do the exact thing she is doing, and when that is pointed out to her it is like a slap in the face to her. "What??? How dare you accuse me of doing the very thing I am complaining about others doing!" That is the part that is so frustrating to me. I love a good debate when people feel free to express opposing views, but in Tracie's case, when anyone points out she could answer her own question she is offended way out of proportion. You can't have a conversation with someone like that. It can only ever be one sided or total agreement with her. How many people blow smoke up her ass? She will never know because she's not genuine.

Yep. This is the type of person who can hear of two people doing the exact SAME wrong thing and justify the behavior of the person they like while putting down and shaming the person they don't, no matter what. There is no reasoning with them. Bestie cheated on her husband? Well it's okay because she's such a good person, that doesn't define her character, I'll forgive her and you should, too...if you don't, there is something wrong with you, not her. Person whom I constantly disagree with cheated on her husband? What a terrible person, she just showed her true colors to the world. I already knew she was a terrible person and now everyone else knows it, too.

I think Tracie means well But does she really? I grew up in a very strict religious environment and have seen too many holier than thou types who act like butter wouldn't melt in their mouth...yet are the most judgmental and vindictive people you will ever meet.

Unless this is completely unrelated to the events addressed on the 12 pg thread on NSBR, which would in itself give a picture of how much drama this self-proclaimed celeb gets involved in despite her protestations, someone needs to tell her that when you are in a hole, you should stop digging

I love Elle! She is such a class act! When I was a huge fan girl at SC, I hardly ever used the kits I purchased. Then I got banned and found Elle's Studio. Her product is inspiring! Since then, I have created more "traditional" pages (her paper cuts like butter) and just finished 2 project life albums.

You know it was this Pearl Clutcher title that caught my eye. I am all for a good Pearl Clutcher story. Celeb gossip has been so boring this week, lol. There is only so much Canne's coverage one can take. Now, I read this whole Traci thing over at GS my mouth is dropped open. I don't know why. I should not be surprised. You can delete your threads all you want but celeb rule 101 somebody always gets a screenshot. What did she expect? She wants to be a star but can't handle the fallout. Maybe, she should take care of herself if she is so sick. I know my friends with pacemaker's stress is one of the big NO's to your heart health. I don't think Traci is that naive. What she is doing screams that it is calculated. You know she can get in a lot of legal trouble and possible jail time if she is collecting money fraudulently.

I just want to make my followers happy with my podcast and my secret FB groups! Stop following me, stop listening to my podcast. I don't want you to listen to my podcaaaast!" Zero basic diplomacy and communication skills. She'll never "make it" for that reason alone (there are plenty more). And she should never be in charge of any type of business in which customer care is of great importance.

On the NSBR thread someone posted links to her IG. I kept thinking, what will she do? She can't make it private, she needs a public IG account if she's a scrap celeb. That's what cracks me up about her secret FB page(s). The rest of the scrap community can't become a fan if they can't check out your facebook page. So now you're limited to just those that listen to your podcast and then jump through hoops to join your secret page. That a limiting proposition from the get go.

Those of us who can see through her charade of shaming "mean spirited" people while being just as or more mean spirited herself can't be her friends because they don't kiss her ass and undermine her fake little world. How people close to her don't see her true colors is beyond me. I am legitimately confused because it is soooo incredibly obvious!

Girlfriend needs to clean up her act. She's crap at keeping private and public separate for her sanity's sake so I doubt she'll understand how this thing called "my public account AKA my life but edited to keep controversy at bay" works. Until then, she'll rely on her ever-slimming "fanbase" (I'm baffled she managed to raise the amount of money she did for her pacemaker surgery - or shopping, Disneyland, paying off old bills and steakhouse dinners if we're being more truthful here) to follow her around to her latest secret secluded place. It's silly! How many people does she have in her most recent secret FB group anyway (if anyone on here has access to it)? The number of likes she's generating on IG are anything but impressive.

Thanks for the info! And dayum, those numbers are not translating to her IG interactivity at all. Somebody needs to take a basic course - heck, even just an online seminar - in social media training.

And she should never be in charge of any type of business in which customer care is of great importance. Hearing all about this woman is just eye opening. Most of you all know that I buy my scrapbook supplies from WalMart or Dollar Tree, lol. I could care less about buying a product from a name. When I hear how badly these scrap stars behave there is no way I would ever buy anything from them or the companies they are endorsing. I am for one always grateful these threads come up. If you are a celebrity you don't make private Facebook pages, or private anything. Sure, I know celebrities who do have private social media for their family and friends but that is understandably different. You don't make private FAN sites ever! It is unprofessional and arrogant. It also screams that there is fraudulent activities going on in these sites. How many celebrities (Real Celebrities not Scrap Stars) have tried something like this and it blew up in their face or their site was investigated? This woman sounds to me like she uses this private FB platform of hers to encourage shaming, bullying & fraudulent activities. It just really angers me that she says she has a long term medical problem but she is using that problem to her advantage. She is not playing victim. She's a con artist.

I read that one too. I didn't realize it was an old thread. I was like Becky has wrapping paper? I am so up on scrapbooking news, lol. I would like to thank the girls over on that large Traci thread for posting David Gandy pictures! Those beautiful girls can keep the food pictures but I am taking David.

She seems to me to be the type of person who has limited world experience and has always been the Queen bee in her world. Someone who is just not really interested in different viewpoints or experiences and used to getting her way. I have enjoyed listening to the podcast in the past because I like to listen to people talking about scrapbooking. I haven't listened in a while because it seemed it become more about this is us and what we are doing instead of scrapbook discussion. She would talk about the work that went into the podcast and you could donate to the podcast if you enjoyed it. I missed the whole health crisis-pacemaker bit because I have been staying away from Facebook. I would not have donated and am always surprised by the number of people who do in these types of situations. I think the difference in her and the woman from Elle's Studio is that Tracie has no real product to sell. She does hand-lettering and I think has had a few classes she has taught. She's doing the retreat thing now and apparently it was a success. There is another planned for 2018. Her only product is herself and I don't think she is the type who minds talking about herself and what she believes and thinks. She must keep an almost constant eye on her Facebook group because I have never seen a critical word on it.
