Any bets on when the PayPal button is brought back so we can donate to her new medical crisis? Oh please. And then let's crack a joke about domestic violence while we're at it. Why in the world would she think that was funny?

I have not followed much about her other than this thread and having listened to a few of her podcasts but my goodness...she seems super dramatic and exhausting.

I know this thread is pretty much dead, but I created an account just to comment on this as I've been a lurker for a few months...(also I want to join some other fun posts here) I am southerner, I am a believer in Jesus Christ and miracles, I'm a republican and I like listening to the show... but in what world is cheating people out of their money (stealing) and claiming God has preformed some on-the-spot miracle and that you were somehow better than all the other sick people okay?! I strongly dislike hipocracy, and so does Jesus. He mentions how horrible it is in every chapter of his ministry. 1. As far as I know, republicans don't believe in unessacry handouts. They don't believe in taking money they didn't somehow earn. Yeah, you could say the big business guys are crooks or whatever (and they often are), but the small town consertives work for every penny they have. Break their backs to provide for their families. They don't get to be self employed. That's not what real poor/simple southern families do. It drives me crazy that she's says how broke she is, yet it never crosses anyone's mind to get a side gig to meet whatever needs she currently has. I hope the Scrap Gals does well and her work pays off, but stop saying you're poor if you're not! 2. My brother-in-law died from cancer. He was in the best shape, a cross fit guy, quit drinking and smoking, tried to have a 80/20 diet. And he died. In the hospital. That on-the-spot miracle crap rubbed me the wrong way. Is she saying she's somehow worth more than my beloved family member? A man with a 1-year-old son and a new bride who turned his entire life around to be better? Who did everything he was supposed to do and STILL DIED?! Yet she doesn't seem to do much for her health and for whatever reason didn't plan for a KNOWN upcoming surgery and SHES the one who gets a miracle? Maybe that's a little mean of me to think, but my god, I can't help but be miffed. I'm also very raw right now. 3. I love that she embraces where she's from, it's just weird how she thinks everything is FROM her state. There are other states? Other southern states? It's a small thing, but sometimes it drives me up the wall. I'm a US history buff. I know where a lot of stuff "comes" from. That's probably why it bugs me more than others.
Anyways, even after all that, I still kinda like her. I think her personality is intriguing. I love the show. I get a lot from the topics. I just had to share from a scrap gals listener perspective, as I know many of you stopped listening or wonder if we occasionally read here.

Smiley Face about domestic violence! Really, effing really Tracie? I am a domestic abuse survivor. I am sure several of the ladies here who are survivors are shaking now in fury and hurt. Tracie there is a special place in effing HELL for women like you. Yes, I mean it.
I am sure she is praying somebody would believe her poor DH beat her. She probably thinks women who get beaten receive a lot of sympathy & money. Fact check Miss Tracie. Women who get beaten are judged and ostracized. I think you already know that since you put a little smiley face on your post.

Tracie there is a special place in effing HELL for women like you. Yes, I mean it. Since I am not much of an afterlife believer, I say give 'em hell on earth. "They'll think my husband beat me LOL" Are you kidding me? This woman finds a way to stoop lower than what I thought was already the lowest possible each and every single time. She sure has a special gift of making everything about her, including domestic abuse now, while leaving a very bad taste in my mouth. Horrible person down to the core. No forgiving qualities.

So Jess Forster had Tracie and Tiffany on her Pocket Talk podcast. Sorry, Jess...we're breaking up. I somewhat enjoyed the Pocket Talk podcast on occasion, but I tried to listen to the one with Scrap Gals and the way Jess was fawning all over Tracie...

I have listened to a few of the Scraps Gals podcasts and I can't stand Tracie's voice and how she's so loud!

It's a Tracie thread, we deserve to look at our imaginary boyfriend to balance things out.
Here's an interview he did on Alan Carr Chatty Man:

I'm not what I would consider an Ali "fan girl" but I have always liked her and liked her work, and it makes me sad to see her involving herself with Tracie. She has joined Tracie's FB group and sometimes comments, and I feel like it's such a big step down for her. Ali is a successful brand on her own, she doesn't need to get involved with Tracie. Every time I see a comment from Ali, I think I really need to leave this group. I can't listen to the podcast anymore, I get a few minutes in and just shut it off. I did used to be an unapologetic Ali fangirl. Until she hitched her wagon to SC. Then I was more reluctant. Now with this dummy it will take a lot of convincing for me to buy anything from Ali Edwards again.

sleepingbooty Thank You!!!!! I did know he was British. He is funny, he loves puppies and he's hot. My perfect man, lol. I am telling you girls look up pictures with David Gandy and puppies. You are very welcome I got you in trouble at work, lol. Scrapbook businesses who support Tracie will never receive a dime from me. I was talking to a friend this week. Her LSS was actually talking about that Facebook post. Apparently it is not the first time Tracie has made fun of domestic violence. She has a history of it and the scrapbook stars are probably aware of it but still do business with her. That makes me feel like they support shaming domestic violence and the victims. Even if they don't well they are associated with it and choose to be associated with it. That speaks volumes to me. What is funny I didn't bring up Tracie, my friend did first. She doesn't even know about this thread. My friend told me the owner of her LSS is a domestic violence survivor. She is cancelling contracts with the stars who are supporting Tracie. She said the owner rather close up shop than do business with those kind of women. Her words not mine.

I wish the OP would put Tracie's full name in the title. Make this information easier for people to find. Tracie Claiborne of The Scrap Gals podcast.

Its time to donate y'all! Grab your pennies and send them to PayPal! Let's keep the TC Train going! View AttachmentWow. I'm sure that's the default from PayPal, but "Pay Tracie Claiborne" just looks awful.

You'd think the money she didn't use for her medical expenses would more than cover a few years.

What's more, I thought she was saying she wasn't going to do the podcast anymore and that she wasn't going to scrapbook anymore, either. What does she needs the money for if she's quitting everything except the socializing aspect at retreats?

The podcast isn't going away. She has stated she probably won't be scrapping tradition type layouts anymore. She uses a memory planner now. But she will still do the podcast and retreats and keep up with what's going on in the industry.

I just threw up in my mouth. ^^^ that. She makes it seem like she's National Public Radio, or something... "time for our annual membership drive." I wonder if she'll give her donors a hand-lettered card as a thank-you gift? (nahhh....) eta: it looks like she's getting people to donate to just help defray the cost of producing the podcast? I didn't think you HAD to pay $$ to subscribe to podcasts, but maybe there are some that you need to pay to subscribe to?

i've given in the past - before she showed her true colors -- but will not be donating one penny. you'd think they'd h ave figured this out by now. Guess the sponsors idea didn't work out.

I thought that was the point of sponsors. I wonder if she's funding the retreat with the donations. It's all too shady.
